  • Poor Jon. Out on his own again. Does he ever see the others? The Oral B was bound to win anyway. No contest. Small, round head every time.

    Just switched to a Pro3, after moving house and leaving my sonicare behind. 1 use in and I was startled by just how noisey it is, having been used to the sonicare humm. Was thinking maybe it was faulty, or not properly charged, but they seemed to confirm that very sound difference in this video.

    Haha I bought the Oral B 3500 a couple of months back. Reinforced my purchase decision. Would class it as a lower midrange option though as you can go considerably cheaper. I couldn't justify the price hikes beyond this - 3 cleaning modes for normal, sensitive and whitening is enough for me.
  • ive owned both , dont waist your money on expensive toothbrushes , they are no better , unless you just like waisting money that is !

    not supposed normal brunch with sonic brushes. the sonic vibration is supposed to do the work
  • @gdbguitartuition
    Need to compare cheap sonicare with expensive sonicare and same for 2 oral Bs. It's not the same toothbrush to compare these 2. Secondly, what they don't tell you on this video is that the oral B is massive. I switched from sonicare to oral B and missed LOADS of plaque at the far corners because the oral B is just too big. I switched back to the sonicare and loads of missed dirt came out. Oral B for me was a waste of money. I still have it in a cupboard but it's been used for 2 weeks maximum. Rubbish.

    Considering he's a dentist how does he not know how to brush with an electric toothbrush? You don't need to scrub, just light pressure against the teeth and let the brush do the work!

    i bought oral b pro790..should be enough
  • @bluekhan5591
    I have always used the Philips Sonicare, the replacement heads are so expensive. Think I will try the Oral B io next time.
  • @lemonking
    Where was the expensive one? Like the oral-b io 10 @ £375
  • @JayUnarmed
    Personal experience, don't use the cheap ones. I am using the same Philips brush, actually got it at the fraction of the price, but it was significantly better than the cheap one I was using before, it was cheaper than the Oral B one, so can go mid range but don't go cheap.
  • @BrianW1612
    Cheaper Sonic Brush is the best option having used both types, I'd recommend the Ordo. Cleaning is just that bit better on the sonic brushes if you are using it correctly. Watching this video nobody seems capable of doing so which is pretty poor considering one of them is a dentist 🤦‍♂️
  • @greenerick
    Have the Sonicare DiamondClean and Oral-B io 10 the Oral-B iO 10 is expensive but in the long run, will cost U less in dental bills. Oral-B iO is just a better . Anyway great video

    I'm an owner of the Philips sonic care 9000 (and i'm a previous owner of the an Oral-B Vitality Pro) and all i have to say that it is the best. One of the greatest advantages over the oral-b is that it DOES NOT accumulate any mold inside the toothbrush head.
