The Oral B Professionalcare 5000 is the latest in Braun’s electric toothbrush range, just a step up from the Oral-B Triumph 4000. It has 5 brushing modes rather than the 4. This is one of the most advanced electric toothbrushes on the market and is the only toothbrush to be approved by the British Dental Health Foundation.
Oral B have made a little challenge for the Oral B 5000 saying that this electric toothbrush can give you naturally whiter teeth in just 21 days. This is a bold claim by them but with the amount of rave reviews that this product has got there must be some truth in it.
If you’re new to electric toothbrushes it will only take a small time to get use to them, but remember these are not like manual brushes and you do not need to move the brush like one. But like a manual toothbrush the brush head needs replacing every 3 months and if you are forgetful like me then the smartguide can help out and will tell you when to change it.
The smartguide that comes with the Oral B Professionalcare 5000 is a little wireless device that provides feedback while brushing your teeth. On the smartguide there will be a timer while brushing, also there is a circle divided into 4 quadrants (parts) these represent the 4 areas of your mouth. Now when you start to brush your teeth the timer will start and the first quadrant will be filled in, now after 30 seconds the toothbrush will do 2 short pulses indicating to change the quadrant of your mouth this happens 3 times in then on the fourth you will get 3 pulses telling you that you brushing time is up. This is very useful as you do not want to ruin tooth enamel by over brushing.
The toothbrush itself is built to a high standard with an attractive sturdy design. A single charge lasts up to 10 days if brushing twice a day, which is good for traveling as you do not need to bring the charger along.
It has 5 brushing modes as previously said these are:
* Daily clean – Used for normal day to day cleaning.
* Massage – Gently stimulates gums.
* Sensitive – Gentle for sensitive areas but still maintaining a high degree and thorough cleaning.
* Polish mode – Polishes and gives natural whitening by removing stains.
* Deep clean mode – For a dentist clean feeling.
If you can afford the Braun Oral-B Triumph IQ 5000 then buy it. Think of it as an investment rather just an expensive electric toothbrush, as this toothbrush could mean fewer trips to the dentist which is roughly around the £20 price mark for a check-up.
Just one little tip when you receive your electric toothbrush you will have a 2 year warranty but if you register it with oral b then you will get an extra year.
