I have to use the small round one because I have the mouth of a kid. Very small mouth and the sonic ones that are long, do not fit in my mouth. I prefer the Oral B brands that have the round head and I can't stand the vibration of the sonic as well.
Thank you again for making these videos Whitney! I took your advice and massively improved my dental health. I visited my dentist this morning for a check up and he joked to me that I wouldn’t even have to come in again if I continued my perfect (his words) dental routine! All thanks to you!
Moral of the story...brush twice a day and floss once a day. As long as your doing that as well as your twice a year check ups youll be good to go. Im 37 and wish I took my teeth health more seriously in my twenties cause thats when I was partying alot not brushing enough or eating late and not brushing before bed. Never really became anxious about my teeth until now. Take care of your teeth people. With that said I have the Oral B iO Series 6.
Im currently in dental assisting school and we are a hybrid school, so we work in a lab and also do online. we have to watch these videos online and there's this girl that we watch for a lot of our sections. she looked so familiar (I've been in this class for 8/12 weeks) I couldn't figure out who she was but I knew she was familiar. turns out it was you the entire time 🤣 and I've been watching your vids wayyyy before I even started this school lol
hahahahah that's amazing!!!!!! I LOVED filming with the dental assisting program that was so fun! so happy to hear they still use my footage!!!! wishing you the best toothy journey!!!
I think the benefit is being able to utilize the vibrations for the majority of the time spent brushing. At the end of the 2 minutes, a good 20-30 seconds of manual brushing is a means of reducing gum erosion were you to manually brush the entire time.
I use both. I’ve had a sonic for maybe 20 yrs. I also felt it missed a lot because the timer worked for the 4 teeth quadrants, so I’ve always used a manual toothbrush after for the middle or top of my back teeth then I brush my tongue and gums as well.
I used an Oral-B for years. I had some small plaque buildup on my Lower bottom teeth. When the oral-b needed to be replaced I bought a Sonicare. Within 7 days the plaque on my lower teeth was gone. Proof is in the pudding. Sonicare for me.
Thank you so much for this channel, as someone on a lot of severe psych meds I had severe gum recession and you make it so much easier to know how to maximize my dental health!
My first Oral B round head instruction was to use a U-shape path for each tooth: one side, the gum line, the other side. It had a 30-second vibration for each section. Newer models skip instructions.
Hi y’all :) If anyone is considering going from regular toothbrush to electric, DO IT! I picked up the Oral-B Pro 2 2500 a few months ago, and it’s honestly insane how great electric is! Regular is also great, but the rotations on electric are far more than a human could do. And it also helps for days/nights where you’re a little lazy to brush and the toothbrush does all the work for you. That’s the big thing with electric, it’s consistent because it doesn’t get lazy/tired😂 Thank u Whitney for convincing me to go electric a few months ago :) have a good one y’all! P.S. I’m not a dentist or DH, just my opinion :D
Even the $8 battery powered toothbrushes with rotating and pulsing heads are better than normal brushes. Just be sure to buy the Oral-B brand not the cheap generic brands.
My dentist 20 years ago hooked me on the Rotodent electric toothbrush. I loved it! It came with optional brush heads. It allowed me to clean my teeth well and deep. However, that company got bought out many years back. The product kept changing and prices got out of hand. I am back to manual brushing. For the most part my dental health has been ok with manual brushing, however, due to the pandemic I have not had a cleaning or check up in a couple of years. Your video motived me to schedule an appointment with my dentist. Thanks!
Electric toothbrushes are great. I wish I had the same kick in the pants for dental hygiene when I was younger but such is life. I am more on top of things when it comes to my kids and grandkids dental health because my parents just weren't educated or interested in it at all. (I can say that thankfully receiving dental care on a regular basis was a thing, but the dentist and the hygienist just assumed they knew what they were doing AND that they would know how to give their kids directions.)
Hi Whitney, i just wanna say thank you for feeding my growing love for oral hygiene. I feel like I've brushed and flossed my teeth more in the past month post jaw surgery (which started because of fear of infection) than in my past life pre-surgery. Now I'm kinda addicted, brushing & flossing 3x a day, and looking at toothbrush and flossing types/models/techniques,etc. Hence i have all these new teeth and dentistry related channels in my YT recos that i didnt necessarily ask for, but still glad to have discovered you through the magic of algorithm. 😀
I’m in the same boat to some extent. I had some random tarter build up break off behind my front bottom tooth and at first I thought my tooth had come off due to decay, to which I later found out from the internet that it was plaque build up and that my gums aren’t in a good condition. I started watching teeth talk girl and now I have an electric toothbrush, a water flosser, anti cavity toothpaste, alcohol free fluoride mouthwash and now know the correct way to brush and floss. I’m learning every day how to take care of my teeth for the first time and I’m in my early 20s! I’ve never been taught. 😅
Thanks for this. I ended up with a round head because my mouth is really small and I have very little space, it’s easier to reach my back teeth really well. I also found sonic brushes to be uncomfortable
Just have my teeth done yesterday, deep scaling to be exact, and my hygienist recommends the electric toothbrush as well as a good dental flosser. This video came as the right time. Thanks 😊
I use both. My Sonicare toothbrush cleans my teeth quicker, but seems too big to get each tooth thoroughly. It's easier to get each individual tooth with the Oral-B toothbrush. Just in case I miss a spot with the Sonicare, I know I'll be able to thoroughly get that spot with the Oral-B before bed. I'm usually in a rush before work, which is why I prefer using the Sonicare before work. That's just my preference. Each one has its benefits.
@rossrobson91 It's bigger than the Oral-B toothbrush. Sonicare covers two teeth at a time, while Oral-B covers one tooth at a time. It has nothing to do with technique.
@@caseymyhro3769 There are small toothbrush heads available for the Sonicare as well. I have extra hard ones from Demirdental, those are great if I want to polish my teeth and get rid of coffee/tea stains. It’s so effective that my dentist never has to remove any tartar, despite having permanent retainers behind my lower teeth. The little amount I develop I just pick myself once every 2-3 months.
I've used both. I like to add that Oral B replacement brushes are cheaper than Sonicare's. I preferred the handling of Oral B. Don't like the feel of hand vibrating when holding the Sonicare.
Thank you Whitney! I actually bought a second toothbrush after watching one of your videos where you described your routine. One is long and the other one circular, and alternate the use.
Something not mentioned here is that it seems all the new models have non replace-able batteries. This is a terrible idea for something that invariably will wind up needing that replaced in 2-3 years. I have an older Sonic Care that takes 2 aa batteries, it's powerful, it works fantastic and it's STILL in service 15 years later! I've had pricier ones with rechargeables built in that only made it one year. Manufacturer's need to be called out on this disservice.
I have a Philips Sonicare and recently upgraded to an Oral-B Genius X. I personally prefer the round head. Though for now I use the Sonicare on gentle when I wake up and after lunch and the Oral-B after breakfast and before bed. When the Sonicare heads are done I'll probably go exclusively Oral-B.
I love using your videos to educate my patients, and to help me verbalize information to them. Thanks Whitney 😁 I would really LOVE to see a video on "giving a pain free IANB"
I actually own both electric toothbrushes. And I personally prefer the roundhead of the oral B smart 1500. I always I also prefer the vibration motor. I have tried sonicare. And I personally did not like the feeling of the vibrations on my teeth with that particular brush. Plus, I like the three modes that the brush offers. As well as the pressure sensor. I have a literally become obsessed with brushing my teeth ever since I purchased that brush. My teeth just feel so slick and smooth after I’m done. Also, my dental hygienist told me that she actually uses Oral-B toothbrushes herself.
After using a round head Oral B for many years my latest toothbrush recently broke and I found myself uncoordinated and lost trying to brush my teeth manually again. Fortunately Oral B warranty replaced my Genius X very quickly and I was back in business quickly. Pro Mode for me leaves my teeth and mouth feeling spotless after brushing.
@@yomismo5711 Yes I do. For me it hits the sweet spot of being an excellent toothbrush while not having the elevated price points the IO models and their brush heads do. I have never used other brands of electric toothbrushes so I can’t make a comparison with them.
Very great and informative video. I really haaaate when people use the sonic brush the same way they do use the manual brush. Like what the hell, why aren't you using just a manual brush if you like to brush your teeth like that
I’m pretty new to the channel. I came across it just doing some searches around flossing tips and tricks. I have been a reliable 2x a day brusher, but regular flossing was a new world to me. I have become really motivated to dedicate myself to my dental health going forward. I recently had my first dental appointment in an embarrassingly long time. In my reading online I saw that electric brushes were basically universally said to be better to manual. I had an electric brush in the past. But, for some reason I can’t recall (probably the price of replacement heads), switched back to manual. Anyway, at my recent dental appointment I asked the hygienist what electric brush she would suggest. She said, “Anything Sonicare.” So, when I got home I purchased a Sonicare 4100 (as well as a Waterpik Water Flosser [something else I owned in the past, but no longer used {this time because it crapped out on me after water kept getting into the battery area}]). I can definitely tell a difference with the electric brush (though, not so scientific as I’ve also incorporated the Waterpik and string flossing, too).
I also love sonicare with pressure sensor. They are quiet and gentle. Just vibrations. OralB is loud and rotating and is too rough. I never tried the newest oralB but it is too expensive. Good choice.
I evidently have long teeth like yours b/c my hygienist kept telling me to get the Oral-B round brush instead of my beloved SoniCare. So I got the Oral-B and it's fine. I have to wait 'til May at my next teeth cleaning appt to find out if it's actually working better. I've been loving your videos and just subscribed. Thank you for your comprehensive, succinct videos that don't take all day to watch. I'm much more likely to watch a video that's
The original Sonicare heads are a rip-off. I usually buy aftermarket ones from reputable brands (such as Demirdental here in Germany) for ~22€/10-pack.
Electric is the way to go. I had an oscillating Oral-B that's lasted 7 years, but finally switched to a Suri (sonic) due to its compact size. It seems that sonic ones can be much more compact versus oscillating, I just hope I like how they clean.
How do you like it? I bought both a sonicare and an oral b to try them both and they leave my mouth feeling about the same but the oral b is noticeably more intense. I’m leaning more toward the oral b
I'd say the oral B does seem more intense, whether that's a good or bad thing. It feels like it cleans more but I don't know for sure. Also the Suri (sonic) has a bigger brush head so it makes me gag more than the Oral B.
Hey Whitney!!! I love your vids 🥰🥰 if you haven’t already, can you make a video about not using toothpaste? I saw a dentist on RUclips mention that he never uses toothpaste and that they are basically unnecessary 🤔
Erm that’s madness. Hygienists like Whitney study about the beneficial effects of fluoride on protecting enamel and against cavities. Where on earth did this dentist train?! That’s crazy!
I just bought my first electric toothbrush called UUA. Assuming it is made in China, but it is pretty high quality and was only $25. Came with 6 brush heads, 3 modes and built in timer that stops every 30 seconds so you know when to switch the areas you're brushing. I love it! But I was confused if the sonic vibrations were actually effective (my mouth surely feels was cleaner now that I'm using it!).. your video helped explain a lot! Cheers!
If the con of a Sonicare type of brush head is its size, then get the DiamondClean heads (they also come in compact size), they are smaller than most Oral-B round brush heads, and they brush better due to the way they move using Sonic technology! It was invented by David Giuliani who also invented the Clarisonic, so he knows a thing or two about rotating and oscillating brush heads, yet the sweeping, back and forth motion was the one to go for electronic toothbrushes. So yeah, Sonicare is simply superior to Oral-B!
Wish we could work together! We are literally on the same page with everything you post! Love your videos, they are always a fun, refreshing way to help others learn about dental care and makes me feel competent as a clinician. 🦷 🤗
this makes me SO happy to hear that we're on the same page!!!! so happy to have this amazing toothy community where we can all come together and talk teeth!!!!! sending positive vibes your way!
My teeths were hurting a lot but I watched on how to actually use an electric toothbrush and the pulsar oral B and now the pain is gone my teeths feel clean.
I use the Oral B Pro 1000. Picked it up for about 50 bucks. Won't go back to manual toothbrushes unless I'm in a jam. The brush heads can be a bit pricey but tbh you kinda get what you pay for. I bought a pack of Walmart brand toothbrush heads that said "compare to ---" but they were terrible. They work well for a couple weeks but then they seem to lose their oscillation. As in, they don't spin very well. I felt like I wasn't getting the job done, so I splurge and get the Oral B brand OEM heads. What's the saying? "Invest in yourself"?
@@yeshuacaceres9722 I just get mine from Walmart or Target. They sell the OE brushes too. But if you can’t find them I’m sure you could find them at a pharmacy like CVS or Walgreens
I have Oral B and Phillip's Sonicare (received both in Hygiene school), By far, Sonicare get's my vote! The handle is much slimmer/head is smaller than Oral B and really helps me reach the max 2nd distals, and the handle doesn't have the holes in it that Oral B does, which causes tooth paste and spit to run down my chin...yuck!!! Also, the charge life of the Sonicare is MUCH longer! It's hard, because the office I work in recommends the Oral B, and I try to keep with that but I just love, love, LOVE Sonicare...should probably be a rep for them...
tell me about the junk that gets inside the brush it's soo nasty! I have an oral b right now debating on tying on a sonicare or not I don't know! I've had the oral b for atleast 3 to 4 years!
I'm using the Oral B Genius X toothbrush and the gamification with the bluetooth connection has really helped me to stay more consistant on my oral care. I have quite severe ADHD and a few disorders as a result of going untreated until my late twenties and one thing I always struggled with was consistant self-care and hygiene. (Gross, I know. I've worked it out since and don't need other people to shame me, because I've already spent enough time doing that myself.) Gameifying any routine has been a great tool for me to make me do things that I tend to skip for some reason or another. The Oral B App gives you achievements, long term goals and a (somewhat accurate) position sensor, to make sure you've brushed everywhere, while the Genius X has a pressure sensor and a few different modes depending on your personal needs. I also prefer the round brush heads because I have my 3rd molars in all 4 quadrants and getting the upper ones on the outside is basically impossible for me with a traditional brush head. The brush is also the highest rated oscillating model by "Stiftung Warentest" - an independent rating agency here in Germany that tests all kinds of products and provides their unbiased results for a very small fee - which definitely influenced my decision on which toothbrush I want to buy. Of course, in the end everything but the oscillating head and the pressure sensor is a gimmick and I'll have to wait two months until my next cleaning appointment to see whether switching to an electric brush has taken my oral care to the next level, but I feel good about the changed that using this brush has made in my routine.
@@trix4487 actually, yes, thank you for asking. 🙂I was having professional cleanings every four months due to tartar build-up, but my hygienist agreed that my dental hygiene has improved so much that we can try to go for 6 months instead. Had barely any new tartar build-up between my last two cleanings and my gums don't seem irritated at all.
@beardiemom that's great news 😊 I hadn't been to a dentist in years and finally went a couple days ago, having a clean in a couple of weeks I have some build up I'm so scared to go back! I think I definitely need to get an electric toothbrush I also have wisdom teeth so think the smaller oral b head would reach them better but I have sensitive gums on my front teeth so not sure if it would be too harsh on those, thank you for your reply I hope you continue to see great improvements!
@@trix4487 I get the anxiety about going back, my deep clean wasn't exactly comfortable, but totally worth it for the results I got. I would be careful with the rotating heads on very sensitive gums, to be honest, because I've heard a lot from people that got gum damage from using them. And trying them out can be a little pricey 😅 Maybe go with a normal toothbrush for the first three months after your deep clean and see whether the sensitivity in your gums goes away once the tartar is removed and you have a solid routine, before deciding on the model of electric brush that would best suit your needs.
Now that's a difficult matchup to handicapping Manual Toothbrush vs. Electronic Oral B (Rechargeable) it's almost as if you're comparing WNBA Basketball: Sun vs. Fever I guess if you're 'old school' you'd take your manual brushing however if you're a true guru to appreciate automatic, I believe Electronic Oral B is the way to go. Not only is it addictive, I believe you're able to improve on your technique through practice. They say practice makes perfect :)
Are elec toothbrushes bad for fillings? I just recently got composite fillings on my lower teeth a few weeks ago due to abfractions at the gumline and I worry about using the new Elec TB I recently purchased. I use a soft head and the gentle mode option but I don't want to loosen or damage the fillings. Also, is it bad to chew gum with fillings? I usually chew ADA approved "Ice Cube" brand gum after meals.
I've spent more on my teeth than any possession I have. I've got root canals, crowns, fillings. I tried a cheap brush just to see if I like it and I'm hooked and want to upgrade. If the sonic types mean ultrasonic it kind of worries me. I used to work at a place that used ultrasonic baths to clean jewelry, so I'm concerned the high vibration may shake something loose. Anyway still researching. They're not cheap and the selection is poor where I am, 50-250 bucks.
Thanks for the video! Lot of great info. There was a similar video posted by Baseline Dental that reccomended brushing slightly with the slow movement. He showed the before and after of how much plaque was removed when brushing slightly vs just gliding. Could you speak to that at all? His video should be easy to find with a search. Would be great to have another opinion, I know you specifically said not to, but his video seemed to have some research behind it.
The circle heads are best for me. I had a lot of cavities due to low vitamin d levels, so I went to a dentist in Illinois (who offered IV sedation) to get the cavities fixed. He suggested Phillips Sonic Care. He told me he didn't like Oral B and to switch to Phillips Sonic Care. I always used Oral B, But I bought the Phillips Sonic Care electric toothbrush, and I hated it. I had horrible dental visits. They wanted me to come in every three months because I wasn't brushing like I should because the Phillips Sonic Care brush head so big I was gagging a lot, so I wasn't brushing as long as I should have. I couldn't get to the back teeth to brush them. The dentist wanted to do a deep cleaning. I walked out of that dental office. I threw away the Phillips Sonic Care Electric toothbrush and bought an Oral B electric toothbrush again. I moved to a different state. It took me a year to go to the dentist again. Since switching back to Oral B I have been having great dental visits ever since. The type of electric toothbrush does depend on the person.
Hey, couldn’t help to reply. Been an RDH for high profile dentists in Beverly Hills for the last 17 years. I don’t care what anyone says- but the Oral B with precision clean or cross action heads are by far superior to any sonicare! I have seen major change in patients oral health when they use and switch to Oral B! Most dentists just see that it’s ADA approved etc; studies done on the brushes were both paid by their companies. So that doesn’t say much. Technique matters, yes! But even w poor dexterity the mechanism of the circular head that truly gets in and cleans each tooth / surface at a time is by far superior.
@@sctrojan17 I agree. I have always had an Oral B. I will never go back to a Phillips Sonic care Electric Toothbrush. With Oral B my teeth just feel cleaner. That is exactly right, Some dentists do check to see if the electric toothbrush is approved by them. I think that's what the dentist in the Chicago area did. I agree I do think the circle head electric toothbrushes do a better cleaning. You're right I even feel that in between my teeth the area gets clean. The circle heads really are and do an amazing job cleaning my teeth then I feel more confident going into the dentist office for a cleaning.
@@komfykoala6083 I haven't been to the doctor in about 10 years so I don't know what my vitamin d level is, but I do take 2000 IU Supplements. But I take two tablets to equal 4000 IU. The dentist always tells me my teeth look great and no problems.
Hi Whitney! Although esthetically I have nice looking teeth I do struggle with gum recession (I've had some gum grafting even). Which brush head, sensitive or regular, do you recommend for the avoidance of more recession?
If you try the vitality O-Ral B, it will do the job for most people, sometime 20$. But the comfort is soso, when you compare it to a O-Ral-B 6000 serie with SUPER Battery Li-ION.
My favorite toothbrush system that which has the round osilating heads and is a sonic toothbrush, is the Cyber Sonic system, that which has been around for just over 30 years! I had the first model, The Cyber sonic II and that when I go back to work and make money again, I will get their most latest up to date model, that which is the Cyber sonic III! Right now, I'm trying out the Oral-B, that which has a spinning brush head, but I don't think is a sonic tooth brush.
My dentists told me they were polishing teeth them minutes later i felt a jackhammer against me skull then observed the dentist trying to drill thru my titanium implants. Got home and saw the holes that go all the way thru 14 teeth. Is that normal?
I dislike the timers(pacers) of the electric brushes, I want to be more careful, gentle and slower when cleaning my teeth and the brush stopping and starting every 30 seconds is really unpleasant and inconvenient, just let me brush my teeth at my pace. The presumption that everyone is rushing and won't brush for long enough, or needs to follow the quadrant way of brushing is just plain wrong.
Thanks for your detailed videos. Would you recommend Oral-B iO8 or Philips Sonicare 7300 at same price? Or Sonicare DiamondClean 9000 for ca $18 extra? I've used a basic Oral-B for many years. I like the sonic feature of Philips where I believe it cleans in between the teeth better than Oral-B or am I mistaken? Do you think the sonic is a gimmick or does it work?
Well, if you think about it, what do dentist use why cleaning their patients teeth? Oscillating brushes or whatever that rubber thing is they use. They don't use vibrating brushes or anything.
Since you are talking about electric toothbrushes, can you please do a review about the Oclean Flow? I really want to buy it, but wanna hear your thoughts about it.
I wish someone would have told me about the vibration tickle from hell that sonic electric toothbrushes give. I struggled to brush three times with one; it even made my eyes water. I was about to throw it in the garbage when I realized I could use it for polishing/cleaning surfaces, jewelry etc.
Oral b and Sonicare are both sonic. Without the brush heads, the metal stalks move side to side the same way. The way the brush heads utilize this movement differs. Sonicare, with the small gap in between the handle and the head, allows the movement of the whole brush head from side to side. Oral B brush head, with a mechanism in place, turns this side to side movement into an oscillating movement, hence it's noisier. The noise is coming from the head's oscillating mechanism. So technically sonicare is more "basic" while oral b tries to mimic the brush heads of 'rotating' brush heads used in dental chairs. Sonicare is best used by people who want a familiar looking toothbrush, while Oral-B is best used by people who want the feel and look of a dental chair brush head. Both are equally good, it's the technique, pressure, and patience from the user's part that's important. Both are equally better than manual toothbrush. Used Oral B 500 way back when, and then currently using Sonicare 6100
Hi Whitney. First I love your vid's so much! Thanks for making this video. It's cool to see the explanation between two different types of toothbrushes. Personally I use Oral-B iO Series 9 Tootbrush that I payed €200. I love this toothbrush so, so much and it's so, so good at cleaning my teeths. 😊

After using a Manual toothbrush my whole life and then recently switching to a sonic toothbrush... it just feels wrong to brush without scrubbing!
i use sonic ones, my teeth feel clean, BUT cant remove food in the middle of teeth. so, now i am getting spin ones (sonic toothbrush broke)
Oral b

I’m in the same boat to some extent.

I started watching teeth talk girl and now I have an electric toothbrush, a water flosser, anti cavity toothpaste, alcohol free fluoride mouthwash and now know the correct way to brush and floss. I’m learning every day how to take care of my teeth for the first time and I’m in my early 20s! I’ve never been taught. 😅
Thanks for this. I ended up with a round head because my mouth is really small and I have very little space, it’s easier to reach my back teeth really well. I also found sonic brushes to be uncomfortable
Just discovered your channel this morning, been binge watching a ton of your videos, learning so much -- thank you!
thank you so much for being here! :)
I haven’t used a manual tooth brush in about 20 years. Once you go electric you don’t go back to manual! 😂😂😂
Just have my teeth done yesterday, deep scaling to be exact, and my hygienist recommends the electric toothbrush as well as a good dental flosser. This video came as the right time. Thanks 😊
How was the clean did they numb you?
Lovely! Short, simple and honest.
That was exactly the form of advice I was looking for. Thanks for the guidance!
Good informative video. Thank you.
I use both. My Sonicare toothbrush cleans my teeth quicker, but seems too big to get each tooth thoroughly. It's easier to get each individual tooth with the Oral-B toothbrush. Just in case I miss a spot with the Sonicare, I know I'll be able to thoroughly get that spot with the Oral-B before bed. I'm usually in a rush before work, which is why I prefer using the Sonicare before work. That's just my preference. Each one has its benefits.
The sonicare isn’t too big it’s your technique and angle that’s wrong.
@rossrobson91 It's bigger than the Oral-B toothbrush. Sonicare covers two teeth at a time, while Oral-B covers one tooth at a time. It has nothing to do with technique.
@@caseymyhro3769 There are small toothbrush heads available for the Sonicare as well. I have extra hard ones from Demirdental, those are great if I want to polish my teeth and get rid of coffee/tea stains. It’s so effective that my dentist never has to remove any tartar, despite having permanent retainers behind my lower teeth. The little amount I develop I just pick myself once every 2-3 months.
The circle heads seem like they would work better if you have any stains by the gum line like me 🤦♀️
Thanks for the video,that has been beating my brain for a while.
Not that would expect less of a dentist, but you do have a beeeautiful smile and teeth. 😊
Couldn't have said this better ourselves. Clear info & to the point with reasoned explanation where required. 👍
I've used both. I like to add that Oral B replacement brushes are cheaper than Sonicare's. I preferred the handling of Oral B. Don't like the feel of hand vibrating when holding the Sonicare.
Thank you Whitney! I actually bought a second toothbrush after watching one of your videos where you described your routine. One is long and the other one circular, and alternate the use.
I use of each as well and rotate them.
LOVE HEARING THIS :) :) :) :)
Something not mentioned here is that it seems all the new models have non replace-able batteries. This is a terrible idea for something that invariably will wind up needing that replaced in 2-3 years. I have an older Sonic Care that takes 2 aa batteries, it's powerful, it works fantastic and it's STILL in service 15 years later! I've had pricier ones with rechargeables built in that only made it one year. Manufacturer's need to be called out on this disservice.
First I tried the round head because it came with my toothbrush but once I tried the classic shaped head I can never get back to the circular one!
I have a Philips Sonicare and recently upgraded to an Oral-B Genius X. I personally prefer the round head. Though for now I use the Sonicare on gentle when I wake up and after lunch and the Oral-B after breakfast and before bed. When the Sonicare heads are done I'll probably go exclusively Oral-B.
9/10 people agree with this video
I love using your videos to educate my patients, and to help me verbalize information to them.
Thanks Whitney 😁
I would really LOVE to see a video on "giving a pain free IANB"
thank you so much for sharing my videos!!! truly appreciate it! and that's a good video idea! will definitely add to my list :)
For a moment i thought Alanis Morissette was talking about brushes.
Great video! I was cracking up😂, because I rewound the video to catch “that’s what she said”. Very quick, clever, and funny.
caught!!!!
I use the Phillips in the morning, Suri at work and Oral-B at night
Good idea 💡
Only three times?
I actually own both electric toothbrushes. And I personally prefer the roundhead of the oral B smart 1500. I always I also prefer the vibration motor.
I have tried sonicare. And I personally did not like the feeling of the vibrations on my teeth with that particular brush.
Plus, I like the three modes that the brush offers. As well as the pressure sensor.
I have a literally become obsessed with brushing my teeth ever since I purchased that brush. My teeth just feel so slick and smooth after I’m done.
Also, my dental hygienist told me that she actually uses Oral-B toothbrushes herself.
After using a round head Oral B for many years my latest toothbrush recently broke and I found myself uncoordinated and lost trying to brush my teeth manually again. Fortunately Oral B warranty replaced my Genius X very quickly and I was back in business quickly. Pro Mode for me leaves my teeth and mouth feeling spotless after brushing.
Do you recommend Genius X?
@@yomismo5711 Yes I do. For me it hits the sweet spot of being an excellent toothbrush while not having the elevated price points the IO models and their brush heads do. I have never used other brands of electric toothbrushes so I can’t make a comparison with them.
@@squangan Thx!
Very great and informative video. I really haaaate when people use the sonic brush the same way they do use the manual brush. Like what the hell, why aren't you using just a manual brush if you like to brush your teeth like that
I’m pretty new to the channel. I came across it just doing some searches around flossing tips and tricks. I have been a reliable 2x a day brusher, but regular flossing was a new world to me. I have become really motivated to dedicate myself to my dental health going forward.
I recently had my first dental appointment in an embarrassingly long time. In my reading online I saw that electric brushes were basically universally said to be better to manual. I had an electric brush in the past. But, for some reason I can’t recall (probably the price of replacement heads), switched back to manual.
Anyway, at my recent dental appointment I asked the hygienist what electric brush she would suggest. She said, “Anything Sonicare.” So, when I got home I purchased a Sonicare 4100 (as well as a Waterpik Water Flosser [something else I owned in the past, but no longer used {this time because it crapped out on me after water kept getting into the battery area}]).
I can definitely tell a difference with the electric brush (though, not so scientific as I’ve also incorporated the Waterpik and string flossing, too).
I also love sonicare with pressure sensor. They are quiet and gentle. Just vibrations. OralB is loud and rotating and is too rough. I never tried the newest oralB but it is too expensive. Good choice.
I evidently have long teeth like yours b/c my hygienist kept telling me to get the Oral-B round brush instead of my beloved SoniCare. So I got the Oral-B and it's fine. I have to wait 'til May at my next teeth cleaning appt to find out if it's actually working better. I've been loving your videos and just subscribed. Thank you for your comprehensive, succinct videos that don't take all day to watch. I'm much more likely to watch a video that's
How many times You use electric toothbrush in a day
Exactly the question I was pondering. Thanks!
Just bought the toothbrush in your description! It will be interesting to try an electric one.
electric ftw!!! price is a huge consideration too btw and oral b heads (legit ones) are usually around half the price of sonicare
The original Sonicare heads are a rip-off. I usually buy aftermarket ones from reputable brands (such as Demirdental here in Germany) for ~22€/10-pack.
so many smiles and bubbliness. Good Video !
Electric is the way to go. I had an oscillating Oral-B that's lasted 7 years, but finally switched to a Suri (sonic) due to its compact size. It seems that sonic ones can be much more compact versus oscillating, I just hope I like how they clean.
How do you like it? I bought both a sonicare and an oral b to try them both and they leave my mouth feeling about the same but the oral b is noticeably more intense. I’m leaning more toward the oral b
I'd say the oral B does seem more intense, whether that's a good or bad thing. It feels like it cleans more but I don't know for sure. Also the Suri (sonic) has a bigger brush head so it makes me gag more than the Oral B.
Hey Whitney!!! I love your vids 🥰🥰 if you haven’t already, can you make a video about not using toothpaste? I saw a dentist on RUclips mention that he never uses toothpaste and that they are basically unnecessary 🤔
Erm that’s madness. Hygienists like Whitney study about the beneficial effects of fluoride on protecting enamel and against cavities. Where on earth did this dentist train?! That’s crazy!
@@MA-or4pfI definitely agree with your entire comment. I question the credibility of the dentist
I just bought my first electric toothbrush called UUA. Assuming it is made in China, but it is pretty high quality and was only $25. Came with 6 brush heads, 3 modes and built in timer that stops every 30 seconds so you know when to switch the areas you're brushing. I love it! But I was confused if the sonic vibrations were actually effective (my mouth surely feels was cleaner now that I'm using it!).. your video helped explain a lot! Cheers!
If the con of a Sonicare type of brush head is its size, then get the DiamondClean heads (they also come in compact size), they are smaller than most Oral-B round brush heads, and they brush better due to the way they move using Sonic technology!
It was invented by David Giuliani who also invented the Clarisonic, so he knows a thing or two about rotating and oscillating brush heads, yet the sweeping, back and forth motion was the one to go for electronic toothbrushes. So yeah, Sonicare is simply superior to Oral-B!
4:22 that’s what she said
Wish we could work together! We are literally on the same page with everything you post! Love your videos, they are always a fun, refreshing way to help others learn about dental care and makes me feel competent as a clinician. 🦷 🤗
this makes me SO happy to hear that we're on the same page!!!! so happy to have this amazing toothy community where we can all come together and talk teeth!!!!! sending positive vibes your way!
Oral b all the way, I couldn’t believe how clean my teeth felt after using the electric the first time.

My teeths were hurting a lot but I watched on how to actually use an electric toothbrush and the pulsar oral B and now the pain is gone my teeths feel clean.
You are so beautiful. Thanks for motivating me to brush more frequently 😘
I adore your videos SOOOO MUCHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
I use the Oral B Pro 1000. Picked it up for about 50 bucks. Won't go back to manual toothbrushes unless I'm in a jam. The brush heads can be a bit pricey but tbh you kinda get what you pay for. I bought a pack of Walmart brand toothbrush heads that said "compare to ---" but they were terrible. They work well for a couple weeks but then they seem to lose their oscillation. As in, they don't spin very well. I felt like I wasn't getting the job done, so I splurge and get the Oral B brand OEM heads. What's the saying? "Invest in yourself"?
Where can I buy the brush heads?
@@yeshuacaceres9722 I just get mine from Walmart or Target. They sell the OE brushes too. But if you can’t find them I’m sure you could find them at a pharmacy like CVS or Walgreens
I have Oral B and Phillip's Sonicare (received both in Hygiene school), By far, Sonicare get's my vote! The handle is much slimmer/head is smaller than Oral B and really helps me reach the max 2nd distals, and the handle doesn't have the holes in it that Oral B does, which causes tooth paste and spit to run down my chin...yuck!!! Also, the charge life of the Sonicare is MUCH longer! It's hard, because the office I work in recommends the Oral B, and I try to keep with that but I just love, love, LOVE Sonicare...should probably be a rep for them...
tell me about the junk that gets inside the brush it's soo nasty! I have an oral b right now debating on tying on a sonicare or not I don't know! I've had the oral b for atleast 3 to 4 years!
Can I ask which Sonicare model you use? 🙏I think I'll go for Sonicare.
That's why I switched after a year. Sonicare is the way to go.
I'm using the Oral B Genius X toothbrush and the gamification with the bluetooth connection has really helped me to stay more consistant on my oral care. I have quite severe ADHD and a few disorders as a result of going untreated until my late twenties and one thing I always struggled with was consistant self-care and hygiene. (Gross, I know. I've worked it out since and don't need other people to shame me, because I've already spent enough time doing that myself.)
Gameifying any routine has been a great tool for me to make me do things that I tend to skip for some reason or another. The Oral B App gives you achievements, long term goals and a (somewhat accurate) position sensor, to make sure you've brushed everywhere, while the Genius X has a pressure sensor and a few different modes depending on your personal needs. I also prefer the round brush heads because I have my 3rd molars in all 4 quadrants and getting the upper ones on the outside is basically impossible for me with a traditional brush head. The brush is also the highest rated oscillating model by "Stiftung Warentest" - an independent rating agency here in Germany that tests all kinds of products and provides their unbiased results for a very small fee - which definitely influenced my decision on which toothbrush I want to buy.
Of course, in the end everything but the oscillating head and the pressure sensor is a gimmick and I'll have to wait two months until my next cleaning appointment to see whether switching to an electric brush has taken my oral care to the next level, but I feel good about the changed that using this brush has made in my routine.
Any improvements?
@@trix4487 actually, yes, thank you for asking. 🙂I was having professional cleanings every four months due to tartar build-up, but my hygienist agreed that my dental hygiene has improved so much that we can try to go for 6 months instead.
Had barely any new tartar build-up between my last two cleanings and my gums don't seem irritated at all.
@beardiemom that's great news 😊 I hadn't been to a dentist in years and finally went a couple days ago, having a clean in a couple of weeks I have some build up I'm so scared to go back! I think I definitely need to get an electric toothbrush I also have wisdom teeth so think the smaller oral b head would reach them better but I have sensitive gums on my front teeth so not sure if it would be too harsh on those, thank you for your reply I hope you continue to see great improvements!
@@trix4487 I get the anxiety about going back, my deep clean wasn't exactly comfortable, but totally worth it for the results I got.
I would be careful with the rotating heads on very sensitive gums, to be honest, because I've heard a lot from people that got gum damage from using them. And trying them out can be a little pricey 😅
Maybe go with a normal toothbrush for the first three months after your deep clean and see whether the sensitivity in your gums goes away once the tartar is removed and you have a solid routine, before deciding on the model of electric brush that would best suit your needs.
@@beardiemom do u still use the same one now? also what toothpaste and mouthwash do u use?
My Oral-B stopped to work with only one year of use. I'm think about Philips.
The Equate Infinity is less than $10 and I got it cause I needed a more gentle one and it is gentle but not too weak.
Ignore the 2 minute advice. Brush till your teeth are clean.
Now that's a difficult matchup to handicapping Manual Toothbrush vs. Electronic Oral B (Rechargeable) it's almost as if you're comparing WNBA Basketball: Sun vs. Fever I guess if you're 'old school' you'd take your manual brushing however if you're a true guru to appreciate automatic, I believe Electronic Oral B is the way to go. Not only is it addictive, I believe you're able to improve on your technique through practice. They say practice makes perfect :)
Are elec toothbrushes bad for fillings? I just recently got composite fillings on my lower teeth a few weeks ago due to abfractions at the gumline and I worry about using the new Elec TB I recently purchased. I use a soft head and the gentle mode option but I don't want to loosen or damage the fillings. Also, is it bad to chew gum with fillings? I usually chew ADA approved "Ice Cube" brand gum after meals.
I've spent more on my teeth than any possession I have. I've got root canals, crowns, fillings. I tried a cheap brush just to see if I like it and I'm hooked and want to upgrade. If the sonic types mean ultrasonic it kind of worries me. I used to work at a place that used ultrasonic baths to clean jewelry, so I'm concerned the high vibration may shake something loose. Anyway still researching. They're not cheap and the selection is poor where I am, 50-250 bucks.
I use a oral b genius pro 8000. Probably is the best electric toothbrush I’ve used so far.
Thanks for the video! Lot of great info.
There was a similar video posted by Baseline Dental that reccomended brushing slightly with the slow movement. He showed the before and after of how much plaque was removed when brushing slightly vs just gliding.
Could you speak to that at all? His video should be easy to find with a search. Would be great to have another opinion, I know you specifically said not to, but his video seemed to have some research behind it.
I predicted your response before the video even started 😆
cuz you are on team teeth!!!!!!!
Nothing compare to a good electric Oscillating-Rotating toothbrush. 😉👍

The circle heads are best for me. I had a lot of cavities due to low vitamin d levels, so I went to a dentist in Illinois (who offered IV sedation) to get the cavities fixed. He suggested Phillips Sonic Care. He told me he didn't like Oral B and to switch to Phillips Sonic Care. I always used Oral B, But I bought the Phillips Sonic Care electric toothbrush, and I hated it. I had horrible dental visits. They wanted me to come in every three months because I wasn't brushing like I should because the Phillips Sonic Care brush head so big I was gagging a lot, so I wasn't brushing as long as I should have. I couldn't get to the back teeth to brush them. The dentist wanted to do a deep cleaning. I walked out of that dental office. I threw away the Phillips Sonic Care Electric toothbrush and bought an Oral B electric toothbrush again. I moved to a different state. It took me a year to go to the dentist again. Since switching back to Oral B I have been having great dental visits ever since. The type of electric toothbrush does depend on the person.
Hey, couldn’t help to reply. Been an RDH for high profile dentists in Beverly Hills for the last 17 years. I don’t care what anyone says- but the Oral B with precision clean or cross action heads are by far superior to any sonicare! I have seen major change in patients oral health when they use and switch to Oral B! Most dentists just see that it’s ADA approved etc; studies done on the brushes were both paid by their companies. So that doesn’t say much. Technique matters, yes! But even w poor dexterity the mechanism of the circular head that truly gets in and cleans each tooth / surface at a time is by far superior.
@@sctrojan17 I agree. I have always had an Oral B. I will never go back to a Phillips Sonic care Electric Toothbrush. With Oral B my teeth just feel cleaner. That is exactly right, Some dentists do check to see if the electric toothbrush is approved by them. I think that's what the dentist in the Chicago area did. I agree I do think the circle head electric toothbrushes do a better cleaning. You're right I even feel that in between my teeth the area gets clean. The circle heads really are and do an amazing job cleaning my teeth then I feel more confident going into the dentist office for a cleaning.
I have low vitamin D too and that definitely does contribute to dental problems. How did you raise your levels? I'm taking a 2000 IU supplement daily.
@@komfykoala6083 I haven't been to the doctor in about 10 years so I don't know what my vitamin d level is, but I do take 2000 IU Supplements. But I take two tablets to equal 4000 IU. The dentist always tells me my teeth look great and no problems.
Hi Whitney! Although esthetically I have nice looking teeth I do struggle with gum recession (I've had some gum grafting even). Which brush head, sensitive or regular, do you recommend for the avoidance of more recession?
There is a dentist on you tube who thinks the sonic one with the softest possible brush head is better for gum issues than the oral b
I’m entering the world of e toothbrushes and I already ordered the oral b vitality plus and oral b pro 3 as starter I hope it’s a great choice 😅
nice one! thanks for the sharing! i have just gotten my electric toothbrush, i works much better! :)
If you try the vitality O-Ral B, it will do the job for most people, sometime 20$. But the comfort is soso, when you compare it to a O-Ral-B 6000 serie with SUPER Battery Li-ION.
My favorite toothbrush system that which has the round osilating heads and is a sonic toothbrush, is the Cyber Sonic system, that which has been around for just over 30 years! I had the first model, The Cyber sonic II and that when I go back to work and make money again, I will get their most latest up to date model, that which is the Cyber sonic III! Right now, I'm trying out the Oral-B, that which has a spinning brush head, but I don't think is a sonic tooth brush.
Thank you
My dentists told me they were polishing teeth them minutes later i felt a jackhammer against me skull then observed the dentist trying to drill thru my titanium implants. Got home and saw the holes that go all the way thru 14 teeth. Is that normal?
Wait...do we brush over the gum line, or do the bristles have to go slightly underneath the gum line? 🤔
High 5 , your not trying to get inside
Fantastic information. Thank you for clarifying which is better. By the way, I have both.
The oscillating one cleans way better for the back tooth 100% of the time. Oral B / Braun is the best
I dislike the timers(pacers) of the electric brushes, I want to be more careful, gentle and slower when cleaning my teeth and the brush stopping and starting every 30 seconds is really unpleasant and inconvenient, just let me brush my teeth at my pace. The presumption that everyone is rushing and won't brush for long enough, or needs to follow the quadrant way of brushing is just plain wrong.
I hear you! I like hearing this!!!! Not all of us are rushing through it! Agreed :)
Oral b doesn't stop. It's alerts you telling you every 30 seconds but it doesn't turn off until you turn it off
great video! what about replacement brush heads? are we making a mistake if we buy the cheap replacement heads?
Thanks for your detailed videos. Would you recommend Oral-B iO8 or Philips Sonicare 7300 at same price? Or Sonicare DiamondClean 9000 for ca $18 extra? I've used a basic Oral-B for many years. I like the sonic feature of Philips where I believe it cleans in between the teeth better than Oral-B or am I mistaken? Do you think the sonic is a gimmick or does it work?
Well, if you think about it, what do dentist use why cleaning their patients teeth? Oscillating brushes or whatever that rubber thing is they use. They don't use vibrating brushes or anything.
i have a hard time with the back part of my bottom teeth with the sonicare
Since you are talking about electric toothbrushes, can you please do a review about the Oclean Flow? I really want to buy it, but wanna hear your thoughts about it.
Thanks
"Get the mid range brushes"
Here I am looking at the Oral B io series 10 and seeing it's $400
I'll stick with my io series 3 because I'm poor😂
oh I'm thinking about it...uh, tooth brushes, of course
I wish someone would have told me about the vibration tickle from hell that sonic electric toothbrushes give. I struggled to brush three times with one; it even made my eyes water. I was about to throw it in the garbage when I realized I could use it for polishing/cleaning surfaces, jewelry etc.
"extra features you mean like they vibrate better " :))))
I bought 200$ diamantclean and It was Worth every Penny, it is Not so expendive but not cheap. Save your money and get dentist feeling everyday.
I like your channel.
You're funny and proffessional.
thank you! and thank for watching!!!!! :)
Oral b and Sonicare are both sonic. Without the brush heads, the metal stalks move side to side the same way. The way the brush heads utilize this movement differs.
Sonicare, with the small gap in between the handle and the head, allows the movement of the whole brush head from side to side.
Oral B brush head, with a mechanism in place, turns this side to side movement into an oscillating movement, hence it's noisier. The noise is coming from the head's oscillating mechanism.
So technically sonicare is more "basic" while oral b tries to mimic the brush heads of 'rotating' brush heads used in dental chairs.
Sonicare is best used by people who want a familiar looking toothbrush, while Oral-B is best used by people who want the feel and look of a dental chair brush head.
Both are equally good, it's the technique, pressure, and patience from the user's part that's important. Both are equally better than manual toothbrush.
Used Oral B 500 way back when, and then currently using Sonicare 6100
Thank you for great information ☺️
My son and I are going electronic toothbrush as well..I'm willing to try the Oral-B Pro2 2500.. we will give feedback
shit. I’ve had a regular one for most of my life and ever since I got an electric one I’ve been scrubbing the whole fuckin time.
