Is this toothbrush easy to keep clean? Do you find any issues with the brush head collecting saliva/toothpaste/gunk in small crevices?

I've only been using my rechargeable toothbrushes, for a little over a week. So far I have not noticed any toothpaste build up, but I always make sure to rinse it well and dry it with a towel when I am through brushing. I'm on vacation now and this is the first time I've used my travel T. brush, it's much smaller, but it fits easily in my purse, which I like. My teeth feel really clean after brushing; so far so good.

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.

My dental hygienist always insist on flossing but I find the water pick much easier to us and a large amount of food particles caught between the teeth come out. Together with an electric toothbrush that also messages my gum, there have been no complains from my dentist on annual checkups.

I agree with the answer below. The healthy white has the new toothbrush so no gunk or mold will accumulate where it attaches to the unit. If you don't have a need for the features of the Diamond Clean, I wouldn't upgrade. All Sonicare tooth brushes clean equally as well. I have been using one model or another for over 20 years. It's merely a matter of options available with the different models. I personally believe that Sonicare is the best toothbrush available, whatever the model.

Yes, it is easy to clean the brushes. I use my hand for the bulk and I use a comb for the smaller pieces of debris or fuzz on the brushes. Remember, this is a carpet sweeper, not a full size, powerful, electric vacuum cleaner. I'm very pleased with this unit and I would purchase another if the need arose.

I've a Phillips Sonicare HX6063/64 toothbrush, which has only one adjustment speed. It's easy on my teeth and gums, but I also have a Phillips Sonicare Diamond/Clean 300 Series toothbrush, which provides 5 setting modes, including 'Sensitive'. If sensitivity is an issue, it would be a good choice. I like both models, however.

I have the less expensive toothbrush. I am very pleased with it. I can't speak to the more expensive one as I have not used it.

I have done so, with no ill effects, but it doesn't clean in the crevices as well as manually with a clean soft toothbrush.

Yes, it is easy to clean. I've had it in daily use for about two months and have had no problems at all.

this one has 5 choices for brushing, one is for sensitive teeth and one to massage gums. I have multiple issues and I love this toothbrush. My dentist and others recommended this one. You'll be happy.

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 really like mine. No problems keeping it clean. The only better way to keep it clean is not have one at all.

As odd as this may sound, I keep used toothbrushes on hand for weird cleaning needs like this. I also buy new ones if there is a sale/coupon and just keep them with my other cleaning supplies until needed. Hope this helps!

I've found it very easy to clean. I use a bottle brush, works like a charm.

Super easy - so long as you do it immediately with the cleaning toothbrush provided. It takes me under 2 minutes.

It isn't bad - you can clean the inside of the cap without problems. It doesn't have small crevices that are hard to clean. I've found the real trick with these things is to finish the water inside it, open it up and leave the cap off when you aren't using it. If you let it get fully dry - both the inside and the cap - you won't get mold/mildew inside in the first place. But if you do, the wide mouth makes it easy to get a sponge or whatever down in and clean the inside.

its not hard to clean. I use it everyday and I just throw the parts in the dishwasher and wipe the outside of the motor housing. The 'extra large" feed shute is bigger than the last one that I had which doesnt tell you much, but it has been sufficient for me, and I use mine at work where we feed about 50 people a day and it does the job very well. Im happy with it so far

There are two brushes that come with the sonic care toothbrush system. I have only used one of them. To me it seems fine - not too soft not too hard. I hope this helps!
