July 28, 200421 yr I got one of those Sonicare toothbrushes recently and I've been pleasantly surprised...Anyone else tried one of these, it literally feels like I've just left the dentist office after each time I brush with this thing, it's amazing...For anyone that hasn't used one, I'd definitely recommend, although it does take some getting used to at the beginning.

My FBIL and FSIL uses that and rave about it. Brian and I are thinking about investing in one. When I was in my late teens my mom bought one for the family. I seemed to remember liking it.

July 28, 200421 yr Author The one thing I've noticed so far is that when you first start brushing your upper teeth on the inside, it's almost an unbearable tingling feeling at first until you get used to it. I found myself having a hard time keeping the thing on my teeth it was tingling/tickling me so badly. But after a few days you get used to it and it's awesome.
July 28, 200421 yr Author Oh, one question. Can you use this if you have braces? Yeap, I believe you can, from what I've read.
July 28, 200421 yr I used to have one. I now have a CyberSonic. I like the CS better cause the bristles rotate individually.
July 28, 200421 yr Oh, one question. Can you use this if you have braces? yep, I did....works great too. And i've had one for 2 years i think....it's so hard brushing with a normal tooth brush if i have to now
July 28, 200421 yr Oh, one question. Can you use this if you have braces? That's the reason I got mine. My ortho reccomended I get one. I did, and it's awesome.
July 28, 200421 yr That's the reason I got mine. My ortho reccomended I get one. I did, and it's awesome. Cool - that was the only reason we were holding off because we didn't know if I could use it or not.
July 28, 200421 yr Author I didn't know people in KY used toothbrushes. Oh, so hilarious.... For the record I was born and raised in INDIANA!
July 28, 200421 yr Oh, so hilarious.... For the record I was born and raised in INDIANA! And that is BETTER??? Personally I say I am from a suburb of Chicago...
July 28, 200421 yr Wow... no need to be all touchy....forgive me for jokin. I am just joking... sorry I probably should have used green
July 28, 200421 yr How much do these things cost? Sounds like a good investment, seems i'm the only one manually brushing here.
July 28, 200421 yr How much do these things cost? Sounds like a good investment, seems i'm the only one manually brushing here. Nope! I've always used a manual brush as well and have no problem with it. The circling of the bristles just seem like they'll rip the heck out of my gums, and I don't want constant bleeding right after brushing.
July 28, 200421 yr I didn't know people in KY used toothbrushes. Aboz is in fact a very nice, clean, GQ kinda guy rolleyeyes.gif

Yep, it works great. Gotta get some replacement brushes for mine. Been using it for like a year adn a half. Teeth feel clean after every wash. Took a while for me to get used to it though.

I think your gums are more likely to bleed with a regular brush then a sonicare. I don't think mine have ever bled from using the sonic care, at least not that I can recall.
