Our top 3 Oral-B electric toothbrushes are the Professional Care 1000, 3000 and 5000 (Triumph). We have selected these 3 best Oral-B electric toothbrushes based on the feedback of dental professionals, customer reviews and the recommendation of other parties, including:  The Dental Health Foundation, The Gadget Show and Which Magazine.

So what makes these three electrical toothbrushes so adept at plaque removal? There are four main reasons:

The first reason is that the Oral-B Professional Care 1000, 3000 and 5000 are the most powerful brushes within the Oral-B Professional Care range, utilising 3D technology to deliver 8,800 oscillations and 40,000 pulsations per minute. The more powerful the brush the greater the plaque removal.

The second reason is, that in order to prevent excessive over brushing, each of these brushes  to prevent damage to the gums caused by over energetic brushing. If you apply too much pressure, a different sound will be generated and a red light will glow and, although the oscillating movement of the brush head will continue, the pulsation will stop.

Third is a reminder function that prompts you to clean the whole of your mouth. At 30 second intervals you will hear a brief stuttering sound which you will also be able to feel inside your mouth. This is to remind you to brush all four quarters of your mouth evenly for an efficient, uniform clean. When you have reached the dentist recommended 2 minute clean, you will then hear a long stuttering sound, indicating that you have finished.

Finally, there is the all important issue of reliability. Oral B Professional Care toothbrushes are exceptional well made and we continue to experience exceptional low returns due to faults. For peace of mind all of the brushes mentioned come with a 2 year manufacturer’s warranty as standard.

 Along with the four points above that come as standard, here is a summary of each Oral-B electric toothbrush:
