Why is the Oral-B electric toothbrush so popular?

Oral-B electric brushes have many advantages:

• They are developed with dentists, so they take into account the medical requirements for hygiene and oral health, as well as the needs of the users.
• Studies have proven that Oral-B electric toothbrushes are more effective at removing tartar and eliminating inflammation compared to regular ones.
• They clean tooth enamel from soft and pigmented plaque, destroy bacterial chains, prevent microbes from multiplying and provide reliable prevention of dental diseases.
• Different modes allow you to brush your teeth with the greatest comfort and efficiency, and comprehensively solve various hygiene problems - cleansing sensitive teeth, whitening, gum massage.
• Most models have pressure sensors that protect your gums from excessive pressure when brushing.

• The latest generation models are equipped with lithium-ion batteries that hold a charge longer and allow you to use the device for up to 14 days without recharging.
• Built-in timers help control the duration of the procedure and signal when it is time to finish cleaning.
• The electric brush is easy to use even for a child (for children it is important to choose special children's models).

Why charge the brush?

Unlike manual brushes, which are driven by our hands, electric models work automatically - the bristles move due to the operation of a built-in motor. Most modern models, including the Oral-B electric toothbrush, do not have a power cord and are battery-powered. This ensures their safety, autonomy and mobility. In order for the device to function correctly and efficiently, it must be charged. To do this, toothbrush kits usually come with a special charger or station. You need to charge your brush for several reasons:

• for smooth operation;
• to maintain high quality teeth cleaning;
• to maintain battery capacity and long service life.

The charging rules and duration are usually indicated in the instructions and may vary depending on the model. In this article we will look at how to charge your Oral-B electric toothbrush.

User reviews

The model was released in 2012 and in a relatively short time managed to receive a lot of positive reviews. All those who have used the Vitality Precision Clean toothbrush note:

• The device has a nice and ergonomic design.
• After brushing your teeth, you will feel fresh and clean for a long time.
• If fully charged, the device will work for a whole week. And this is when brushing twice a day for two minutes.
• Affordable price and high quality combined into one.
• The Vitality Precision Clean Oral-B model is distinguished by high-quality assembly. The housing does not allow water to pass through, there are no backlashes.
• Toothpaste is used very economically, because you only need a drop.
• You can whiten tooth enamel without additional whitening toothpastes.
• You know when to change the attachment because there is a wear indicator on the handle. Therefore, there is no need to remember when the accessory was last changed.
• It is enough to buy one device and several attachments so that a family consisting of several people can use it.

Many also note that after purchasing Vitality Precision Clean Oral-B they began to visit the dentist less for therapeutic purposes. The percentage of caries development has decreased, and plaque is effectively cleaned from the enamel.

Almost the only disadvantages of an electric toothbrush are noise during operation, the presence of only one mode of operation, and the relative high cost of replacement brush heads.

How long does it take to charge a toothbrush?

Dozens of models of electric toothbrushes are produced under the Oral-B brand. Most of them run on batteries that require periodic charging. They differ in composition, capacity and self-discharge rate. Depending on the battery characteristics, it may take anywhere from two to 16 hours to fully charge. Models with docking stations charge much faster. How long it will take to charge your electric brush depends on its technical parameters. Therefore, if the duration and speed of charging are of great importance to you, when purchasing a brush you should carefully study its characteristics.

Characteristics

Equipment

The toothbrush is packaged in a cardboard box, which also contains a brush head, charger (cord length 120 centimeters) and instructions. The nozzle is placed in a transparent plastic package. And the charger is packaged in parts in separate boxes.

Appearance

Let's look at the toothbrush from different angles. For comparison, I took a photo of a toothbrush next to a regular handle.

Due to the soft polymer coating, the toothbrush does not slip out of your hands. To prevent sliding on the surface, there are two rubber protrusions on the handle, larger on top and smaller on bottom. It seems like a small thing, but because of these protrusions, the brush is really securely fixed to the surface. The lower part is made of white plastic.

Functions and Features

The button is located in the middle, where it is very convenient to press with your thumb. One click and the toothbrush starts its work. After the second press, the toothbrush stops.

I would like to note the weight of this device, which should please adults, but rather the opposite for children. There is a nickel-metal hydride battery installed inside the toothbrush, which is why the weight is felt. A full charge of the toothbrush takes 16 hours. If you brush twice a day for two minutes, the toothbrush will last about a week. While eating, the toothbrush does not work.

There is nothing written on the packaging about the stiffness of the bristles. But it feels like it is of medium hardness. The bristles differ in color, size and angle of inclination. The bristles are angled for better cleaning and faster removal of plaque.

The length of the charger (power cord) is 120 centimeters, which is quite enough. The fork is soft and comfortable. The charger itself is made of plastic. The toothbrush is not fixed on it as clearly as we would like.

The brush is waterproof, in theory no moisture should get inside. When turned on, the brush begins to vibrate slightly in your hands and makes a fairly loud sound. The motor inside the brush is not weak.

How to use

First you need to wet the nozzle, and then apply toothpaste. Bring the brush to your mouth, and only then turn on the toothbrush. If you turn it on earlier, toothpaste may end up on your face. Cleaning begins from the outside of the teeth. You need to move slowly, without pressing on the brush.

We conditionally divide the oral cavity into four parts, devoting 30 seconds to each part. Every 30 seconds, the toothbrush stops, thus giving a signal that it is time to change the brushing area. After two minutes, the brush will give a double signal and stop. Be sure to read the instructions before use.

Average rating in stores

Looking at the ratings of the toothbrush in large stores, the average rating among stores will be 4.8 out of five stars. Judging by the reviews, we can understand that, for the most part, the owners of this toothbrush were satisfied. It can be purchased on Aliexpress for

Minuses

• no charging indicator
• lasts for a week and takes a long time to charge
• cost of nozzles (not critical, but still)

Adviсe

A few tips to make your brush last longer:

• Change the nozzle every three months
• Charge the brush only when necessary
• Do not immerse in water
• After brushing your teeth, it is advisable to rinse the brush head, as toothpaste stains can damage the delicate bristles.

Conclusion

It is ideal for those who like medium firmness and above. During the entire time of use there were no glitches, and according to reviews they say that it is durable.

When should you charge your Oral-B toothbrush?

After choosing a brush, read in the product description on the website or in the instructions for the device what type of battery is installed in this model. Nickel-metal hydride batteries can lose their capacity if not charged correctly, resulting in reduced battery life. If your brush has just such a battery, follow simple rules.

Option 1. You can fully charge the Oral-B electric toothbrush, and then use it regularly until it is completely discharged (about 5-7 days). Option 2. The electric toothbrush is constantly on the charger. In this case, you need to remove it from the device at least once a quarter and use it every day until it is completely discharged (according to the first option). If you want the battery to charge faster, hold a charge longer and not lose capacity, any Oral-B brand brush with a lithium-ion battery will suit you. This battery holds a charge for up to two weeks with daily use of the brush. In addition, it retains capacity better, even if you interrupt the full charge-discharge cycle.

How to use the device?

First you need to fully charge the device. A small amount of toothpaste is then squeezed onto the bristles. It can be either ordinary, medicinal or special (for example, whitening). You need very little paste, literally a drop with a diameter of up to 5 mm. A toothbrush will do a great job of cleaning on its own.

Then the device is turned on and placed in the oral cavity. There is no need to make any effort. It is enough to simply move the toothbrush along the dentition. It is advisable to start brushing with the back teeth, and then gradually move on to the front teeth. An audible signal that sounds every thirty seconds will help you know when to switch to the next part of the oral cavity.

When all teeth have been cleaned, which is after two minutes, turn off the Oral-B Vitality Precision Clean device.

Guidelines for safe charging of Braun electric brushes

• An electric toothbrush is charged only from the mains. Before use, make sure that the operating voltage of the device matches the parameters of the electrical network.
• Do not use smartphones, tablets, laptops and similar devices for charging, as this may damage the device.
• Do not use a damaged charger. You need to take it to a service center or purchase a new one.

• Do not trust children to charge an electric toothbrush.
• Do not touch the charger with wet hands.
• It is recommended to charge the device to 100% before first use, and then use it without recharging to 0%.
• Check the charge level using the indicator to turn off the device in a timely manner. The Oral-B electric toothbrush has a display on the handle that shows the battery. When its image is filled with four bars, charging can be considered complete.
• It is not recommended to charge the device on a train or plane, as the voltage there is unstable, which can adversely affect battery performance.

If you follow these rules, your electric toothbrush will last longer and provide your teeth with maximum protection.
