how does this toothbrush compare to the diamond clean? What are the differences?

I have never used the diamond clean and was told by Philips customer service that diamond clean brush heads can be used on the Platinum model. According to the Platinum model literature this is the newest model and has additional settings-3 clean settings, 3 white settings and 3 gum settings...why was that feature important to me? I have sensitive gums and found the low gum setting very comfortable to use and am now slowly increasing the settings for higher cleaning capability.

There is something like 4000 rpm so it is strong (similar to a dentist cleaning tool), however you can adjust the settings to your preference. There are 5 choices: regular, deep clean which is a longer setting, feather light which is good for sensitive gums, polishing which is most similar to the dentist office, and massage which changes speed and pressure for gums and teeth. You can also purchase different brushheads such as regular, sensitive gums, deep clean/floss action. If you use the Oral B brand, the brush head fits perfect and there is no excess noise or vibration, but if you use the generics I notice this does happen more and it is annoying, so we go with the brand.

This model has a round head which makes it easier to get around the tooth to clean. Since you don't have to apply much pressure to clean it should be easier on your gums. There will still be a couple of days before your gums will get used to the toothbrush but after that you will love the clean feeling your mouth will have after each use. The head vibrates but the handle doesn't. I've used this brand of toothbrush for over ten years and I will never go back to a manual brush again.

I ordered the replacement for Diamond Tooth brush. At first the order said it would work for my Diamond toothbrush but it didn't. But eventually I ordered replacement heads for a Diamond toothbrush and it was the right fit. I do not have the replacement part I ordered though or the original Diamond toothbrush part number. I am happy now that I have the correct parts. Have you tried going to INTERTEC.COM to find replacement parts?

I have used mine a lot and it is still in good condition but ordered some replacements as backups. I turn in on low and use an old soft bristled toothbrush and lightly run it across the roller and it really cleans it nicely.

Sensitive CLean is new to me. It might be a marketing gimmick, or it might be a new model replacing the Sensitive. I put the two links side by side in different tabs; there is a difference in how they are constructed. Be sure it fits your power tooth brush. We use the "4000" type. My wife uses the sensitive brush, and has for years; I use one (rarely) if I get a minor gum infection. I doubt there is much difference, but I would go with what my dentist recommended. He probably has a reason; you could ask him/her. I am not much help! These Sensitive-type brushes are designed for people with sensitive gums, and for children. http://www.amazon.com/Oral-B-Pro-Health-Sensitive-Clean-Refill/dp/B008CC3SKW/ref=sr_1_5?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1402654142&sr=1-5&keywords=oral+b+replacement+sensitive+brush+heads http://www.amazon.com/Oral-B-Sensitive-Extra-Soft-Brush-heads/dp/B00006ANDK/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1402654141&sr=1-1&keywords=oral+b+replacement+sensitive+brush+heads

My dentist actually suggested a little dot of nail polish on the backside of the brush head at the bottom where it attaches to the brush. Either that or permanent marker would suffice if you have 2 of the same color brush heads. Philips does sell both black and white brush heads for the DiamondCare series.

Hi there! The model number for this is:HX6962/70. It is the Sonicare "Flexcare" and it has the "Diamond Clean" brush head which is what my oral surgeon specifically recommended to me. I hope this answers your question, but if not, please let me know and I will see if I can be of more assistance. ☺

I went to the dentist yesterday and I was wondering if they would see a difference in my teeth and gums since the sonicare brushes and heads have changed. Everything was fine. The hygienist said I did a really good job on my teeth. I guess the sonicare toothbrushes are still really good.

Not sure about that model. This is the only Oral B toothbrush I've owned. I used to have a sonic care, and I can say with great certainty that this one does a better job. My teeth just feel cleaner. After brushing with the sonic care, I could still scrape residue off of my teeth with my nail. Not so with this brush. I.M.O, it just cleans better. Hope this helped

Hello! The differences are mostly cosmetic. Both toothbrushes have the same body, motor, and charger. The older model (02) is red, and comes with three face plate options and two heads (one large, one small). The newer model (07) is blue, and comes with eight face plate options but only one head (large).I actually would recommend the older model over the new, at least currently, because it's cheaper and comes with the two different brush sizes.

I bought the whole package when I bought mine. But after a while I put the santizer piece in the cabinet and just use the travel charger. I never had a sanitizer for my regular toothbrush. I think it is a way for them to make more money off of the consumer, my opinion. I purchased one for my son for Christmas and just got the tooth brush with the portable charger (comes with it) for $89 minus twenty percent coupon and they are offering a rebate right now. Bed Bath and Beyond have all you need. About the Diamondclean, you can purchase the diamondclean heads and they fit on the flexcare plus. The diamondhead is just a stiffer bristle brush and I like it a lot. I will continue to buy the diamond clean replacement brushes as I like a stiffer bristle brush! Hope this has helped! SLA

No difference....they all do the same thing I think the only difference is the brush attachments some are softer than other..this one is just right not too soft or too hard...

The base is much easier to keep clean than the sensodyne. The brush heads last about 3 months at least then you need to change them. They are not as expensive to change out.

Hi DianaI am not sure what exactly the difference is. It has to do with a better cleaningNo, I don't know. The 760 does however a great job.

I'm under the impression that it has more to do with how they fit on the unit rather than how they clean, but I've only owned the Diamond Clean Sonicare.
