The Oral-B Professional Care 1000 provides a superior clean. Using a manual toothbrush allows a large margin of error for most brushers. It is comforting to know that the brush has the ability to help the user brush thoroughly.
Update: These toothbrushes are currently on sale through this link on Amazon.
The Oral-B Professional Care 1000 has a cup shape and round brush head, just like the professional polishing cup used in the dental office. It cups each tooth so that multiple surfaces can be cleaned simultaneously, as opposed to the limited surface area making contact with a standard flat brush.
Another feature that I find to be indispensable is the pressure sensor. The sensor stops pulsations to let the user know when you are brushing too hard. Since brushing too hard can lead to a number of dental problems, it’s nice to know I have the help of the brush to encourage proper brushing form.
A manual toothbrush has to be moved back and forth, but the Oral-B Professional Care 1000 provides the proper cleaning action for you. It only requires that you guide it along the surfaces of the teeth. The brush spins in an oscillating, or rotating, motion, just like at the dentist. This is the recommended way to brush, rather than a vigorous back and forth motion.
There are also convenience features as well. The Oral-B Professional Care 1000 has a two-minute timer to help keep track of brushing. It breaks the two minutes down into 30-second intervals to let you know when to switch quadrants. There is a charge indicator to let you know when the brush needs to be placed on the included charging station. Both of the two included brush heads have Oral-B’s trademark Indicator bristles that fade to let you know to replace them every three months.
Since Oral-B is the #1 dentist-recommended toothbrush brand worldwide, I feel confident that using the Oral-B Professional Care 1000 is providing me with a dental hygiene homecare routine that my dentist and dental hygienist would be proud of.
