Review on Replacement Toothbrush Heads Philips Sonicare Oral Care ~ Toothbrushes & Accessories by Danny Trapanese

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The bristles are NOT rounded. These heads will scratch your gums!

I bought a set of Ofahu toothbrush heads about a year ago and liked them so much I bought them recently. However, when the heads arrived I found that they hurt my gums. I've found in the past that this is usually due to the bristles having sharp, square ends. So I pulled out my microscope to check and indeed, contrary to the product description, these bristles are NOT rounded. If you don't have bulletproof gums, I advise you to avoid these tips, as they leave microscopic cuts in your gums that can lead to irritation, infection, and possibly gum recession.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
