Sonicare! I’ve had mine 10 years and it’s great.

Sonicare is good. Gotta admit though, it's the only electric toothbrush I've ever had. It is possible that it sucks compared to others. I really like it though.

This. Makes brushing your teeth easier.

The problem with Sonicares - at least the one that I bought 3 years ago - was the battery was non-replaceable.

Oral B makes one that takes rechargeable AAs.

Aquasonic Black series has worked perfectly good and its a quarter of the price of the more popular brands.

Are they better than regular tooth brushes ?

They sell knockoff sonicares for $30 on Amazon by a brand called Dnsly. My dentist said they’re just as good as the pricey ones. She recommends them as you’re more likely to change the brush head out when they’re super cheap to replace than on a more expensive brush. You get 7/$8 brush heads compared to 4/$40.

Oh yes, much better! When you're done, your mouth feels much cleaner than with a regular brush.

That statement never made sense to me before getting one. I thought "what the heck, my mouth feels really clean. They must not know how to brush well". After all, I always had nice teeth!

Well come to find out, it's true! Also, I've got a little overlap spot behind my bottom teeth that was always hard to clean. This sucker vibrates it right out of there! It basically just wiggles the brushes against your teeth real fast.

I was always the type to spend $1 on five brushes every so often and use them till they're well done. I'll probably always use an electric toothbrush now as long as I can afford it.

Wow never knew. I’ll have to make the switch!
