Not identical to brand name

I bought these instead of the Oral-B brand because they were a lot cheaper ($13 for 16 instead of $28 for 6) and still got good reviews. Unfortunately, I eventually found out the deal was too good to be true. At first glance they seemed like a good buy and looked pretty much the same as the Oral-B tip I replaced. I figured I'd be ready for quite a while when I put them in my closet. But then I tried one. Immediately it felt a lot harder and harder on my teeth to the point where I was worried about damaging something or hurting myself. I have bonding on my front teeth where the natural enamel is missing and using these toothbrush heads doesn't seem safe to me. I immediately pulled the old one out of the trash to rinse and use until I found new real Oral-B heads. Then I pressed my thumb against the two hands and noticed the big difference in softness between them. If you like stiffer brushes (although dentists don't usually recommend them) you might like them, but I suggest you start by buying a smaller quantity if you feel the same way I do (about $7 for 4). Just spent $13 to confirm that sometimes you get what you pay for.

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • Expensive
