This toothbrush is much more than your regular variety of power toothbrush. It promises to keep gums healthy and reduce stains too. After a week of using it, I haven't noticed any stain reduction yet, but I expect to with continued use.
The Oral B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush was easy to set up and get started. It''s a good compact size and design. It's also lightweight and sleek. Once I got into the groove of using it, I loved that it felt amazing on the gums. The pulsing is very different from the spin type of toothbrushes I've tried in the past, but it didn't take long to feel comfortable. The setting for sensitive teeth was much appreciated and worked well for me. My teeth feel and look very clean every time i use it.
I normally alternate between a rotating electic brush and a manual one, but I have permanently switched over to this toothbrush (and sometimes my manual one too).
I was very lucky to receive this toothbrush from the Product Review Club (thank you!). The packaging was very nice and sleek. I decided to use it for a couple weeks before posting a review so I could see if it stands up to the claim that it reduces surface stains by 94%. I can definitely say I have seen a change in the whiteness of my teeth; they are very bright and white! I have also noticed that my gums look less red, and much more healthy. The clean feeling after finishing brushing with the Oral B Pulsonic toothbrush is amazing! I feel like I just returned from a professional cleaning at the dentist, and the clean feeling lasts all day. I have owned an Oral B Triumph electric toothbrush for more than three years and I can say that this provides the same clean feeling as the Triumph. I have not yet decided whether I prefer the circular shaped brush of the Triumph, or this one. I love that this brush is much slimmer and lighter than the Triumph; it takes up much less space on my bathroom counter! I enjoy that it has a two-minute timer which prompts you to switch quadrants of your mouth every thirty seconds. It makes brushing fun and the two minutes seems to just fly by! I will definitely be recommending this to friends who have never owned an electric toothbrush. The head shape is similar to one of a manual brush so it is a smooth transition. An improvement I would suggest to Oral B is to include a travel case, similar to the one included with the Triumph. The Pulsonic's slim design makes it great for travel and a case would make it that much better. Thank you!
With my Hello Kitty flashing toothbrush for kids safely tucked away, I eagerly opened the Oral B Pulsonic toothbrush. I could not believe how thin and light it was! The design was sleek, clean and modern.
The battery was already charged (bonus!!) and I could not wait to try it out. Now, in the past, I really thought that all toothbrushes were created the same. Well, the moment this toothbrush entered my mouth, my opinion changed.
You know that clean feeling you get from the dentist? I immediately felt it! The pulses were on the entire brush, not just at the head! Because of this, i really felt like my entire toot was getting cleaned. The pulses felt great also against my gums.
The toothbrush has 2 settings, with the sensitive one being great for people who have sensitive teeth. I also like that it tells you when 30 second are up, so it helps guide you in how long you should brush for.
My only complaint is that the brush gave me no warning when the battery died. I was brushing, and all of the sudden the battery died. Perhaps a flashing light or a beeping sound could warn me a few min before it dies.
All in all, I am so happy with this brush, and I plan to use it for many years, and enjoy an amazingly clean, fresh, 'straight-from-the-dentist' mouth!
This tooth brush is not your usual clunky, cordless toothbrush. Very streamlined and light, much like a regular toothbrush.
It is very powerful. I prefer to use the sensitive setting, as I found the vibrations a bit to jarring whenever I would hit against my teeth with the body of the brush (ie not the bristles). The timer function is improved over previous also, a pause after every 30 seconds lets you know when to switch quadrants.
I have used another power toothbrush in the past, but one of the budget models, and never really noticed my teeth being whiter or brighter, but have to say I have definitely noticed my teeth being whiter using this brush over the last couple of weeks. This has worked great, but glad to have been given it by ChickAdvisor to review, because I don't think I would ever spend this much on a tooth brush.
I was moret hen excited to be choosen for the Oral-B Pulsonic Toothbrush testing, and I can now finally understand why people are so in love with it.
This is definitely a one of a kind toothbrush and I do not see myself ever going back to a regular manual brush. The dentist feeling clean that you get from the very first use with this was an incredible feeling.
After only using mine personally for about a week I have already seen dramatic differences in my overall smile, teeth are whiter and the attachment for the gum line works wonders. I can proudly say I have now purchased 2 additional ones for Christmas gifts for my mother and step-father.
Also works amazingly well on sensitive teeth, the lower speed setting is a wonderful option, the 30 second pause is also great, takes the guess work out of knowing if you have brushed long enough.
Great product Oral-B you have a new customer for life :)
I was so thrilled to be chosen to try the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush because this was my first ChickAdvisor Product Review Club review. Plus, I always wanted to try Oral-B’s power toothbrushes but couldn’t justify spending the money when I could get the same results with a $5-$8 power toothbrush or my regular manual toothbrush with baking soda toothpaste. Boy was I wrong.
Brushing my teeth with the Oral-B Pulsonic Power Toothbrush was like getting my teeth professionally cleaned at the dentist. I was amazed at how well it cleaned away plaque in comparison to my manual tooth or even the $5-$8 power toothbrushes that I used in the past. It was virtually nonexistent. With other toothbrushes I would have to brush several times just to remove plaque and get that clean feeling. The contoured toothbrush bristles allowed for food and plaque to be removed that were near the gum line. I have been using this toothbrush for over a week and am truly impressed with how well it keeps tartar under control as well as remove rather embarrassing stains. There are two different brushing modes, “clean” and “sensitive.” The sensitive mode came in very hand when cleaning near the gum line as it provided a smooth clean without pain or bleeding gums (well, after my gums got used to it the second time round).
The precision tip was really useful for getting between those hard to reach places like the gap between my teeth and those little areas by the gum line where plaque tends to build up. Switching between the Pulsonic Brush Head and the Precision Brush Head was as easy as 1-2-3. All you had to do to remove the brush heads from the handle was to turn the brush head to the right, remove, and place the Precision Tip on the handle then secure it on the handle by turning it to the left. This was great when came to cleaning the brush heads.
Once the brush heads were removed you could place it under running water to clean. The best thing about cleaning the Precision brush head was that the water remained on the exterior of the brush head, which was a major problem I faced when I used to use power toothbrushes a long time ago. When cleaning brush heads in other power toothbrushes, the water would remain trapped in the brush head and eventually drain down and corrode the AA battery. The Oral-B Pulsonic Power toothbrush uses a rechargeable battery which is not easily accessible to water because it is tightly secured in the handle. On a single charge, you get about minutes of use which is not too bad considering that you’re only brushing for 2 minutes. There is a timer on the toothbrush that lets you know when you reached the professionally recommended dental brushing time of 2 minutes. I didn’t find the timer to be notice and found myself looking at my watch. It would have been nice if it had a beeping sound.
Overall, I would probably purchase the Oral-B Pulsonic toothbrush in the future and recommend it to family and friends in spite of my issues with it because I love how clean it makes my gapped toothed smile. When it came to quietness, it was pretty loud in comparison to power brushes that I have used in the past. I wish it was a bit quieter. Even the “sensitive” mode was pretty loud. Another thing that I did not appreciate with this product was that it did not have any covers for the brush heads when they are not in use to protect it from germs and/or airborne allergens.
This is the best item I have tried for cleaning your teeth. I admit the vibrations caused some discomfort of my gums for the first few days but since then it is fine. My teeth look and feel amazingly clean after using this and my gums appear healthier. This is definitly a product I will continue to use.
Thank you Oral B and thank you ChickAdvisor Team.

I was very happy to be selected by Chick Advisor for the review of this toothbrush - I had just visited the dentist and he recommended to switch to an electric toothbrush because it seems I press too hard while using a manual one ( that's not good for your gums).
This brush is very slim if compared to other ones available on the market (like the more expensive Phillips ones and the cheaper ones that uses batteries). That is great for traveling because it can fit my small toiletry pouch easily. Another big plus is that it is rechargeable, and the charger is also not too big. The battery seems to hold for a quite good time so I don't need to take the charger with me for not-so-long trips.I only wish the brush come with some sort of cap for more hygienic storage (a small storage box only for the brush head would be great).
The toothbrush has 2 operation modes: clean and sensitive. It's very easy to operate. Since I've never used an electric toothbrush before, the first try on 'clean' mode was a bit splashy and somehow tickly. Changing it to 'sensitive' helped me to adapt to the new brush, and that only took a few days.
When the brush is on, it has 4 cycles of 30 seconds each so you know you when to move to the next quadrant of your mouth. That's very good because I actually started to pay attention on brushing and cleaning all the areas equally.
I really feel my teeth cleaner after using this brush. I think the price range for it is on the lower side of the 'sonic' brushes, and comparing it side by side on a local retailer, I think the Oral-B Pulsonic does the job as good as the more expensive ones.
I would definitely recommend this brush to a friend.
I was so excited to receive the Oral-B Pulsonic Power toothbrush through the Product Review Club and after using this product i'm amazed by it!! I can't believe how much of a difference there is from a manual brush. Now I find myself just running my tongue over my teeth because it feels so smooth just like after the dentist.
The toothbrush is just the right size and power. It is extremely easy to use and you can really feel it working. I love the sensation and often find myself using it beyond the 2 minute mark. After using this product my teeth feel so much cleaner and smoother then when I used my manual brush. Also, I noticed that when I floss afterwards there was much less food still stuck in my teeth. I haven't noticed if my teeth are getting any whiter from less surface stains but I think that can take a few weeks-- something to look forward to!
A few weeks ago I would have scoffed at paying around $100 for a toothbrush but now I can't imagine going back to manual. I've already picked up the 4-pack of replacement heads so that my husband can have his own. I would absolutely recommend this toothbrush and we are both definitely going to continue to use this power toothbrush. I'm actually looking forward to my next dentist appointment to see if he notices a difference.
I was so excited to be selected to try this product. I had just seen my dentist the week before and he had suggested that I consider trying an electric toothbrush. I have always used a standard manual toothbrush which I thought was doing the job just fine. Until I tried the Oral-B Pulsonic. Wow what a difference. My teeth felt so clean. Like when you leave the dentist office clean. I love this toothbrush. It is very easy to use. There are two setting "clean" and "sensitive". Even though the information suggested that clean should be ok for most people it wasn't for me. I find using the "sensitive" setting more comfortable. I like how comfortable it is to hold and the timer is great. I find that I am really paying attention to each quadrant of my mouth and making sure that each section gets the same amount of time. I will definitely be buying another brush head so that my husband can try this product as well. Thank you ChickAdvisor, I love it.
