Philips Sonicare FlexCare Platinum Electric Toothbrush, White Edition - HX9112: Ultimate Dental Cleaning at Your Fingertips Review

Dental visits are made easy as Sonicare is excellent at preventing tartar build-up. I love the feeling of massaging the gums and the feature that lets you know if you're pressing too hard. This model is definitely an upgrade from my last Sonicare brush which had a capped brush head that was horribly clogged with old toothpaste. Not so with this model. It stays clean without coarse deposits. The only problem is that after 1.5 years of ownership it doesn't seem to keep charging that long (now…

I doubt I'll ever go back to standard toothbrushes on the eve of an apocalypse that will destroy our power grid. My problem is that I've always had trouble maintaining a gentle touch when brushing my teeth, which led to some gum problems. This Sonicare model features a warning vibration if you press too hard. In addition, the Quadpacer is a very smart design feature. At 30 second intervals (in the mode I use) there is a rapid buzz or no vibration to alert you to clean another area. There is no…

I have used Sonicare for many years and I highly recommend them. My old toothbrush broke the shaft holding the brush head so I had to buy a new one and decided to try this high end model. However, this model has a number of disadvantages that make the price unjustified. First I bought this model because of the pressure sensor over cheaper versions. In my opinion the sensor is not sensitive enough. I have to push really hard, much harder than is comfortable, before it signals I'm pushing too…

I bought this brush on the recommendation of my dentist but I don't really like it. The vibration tickles and itches, sometimes it even hurts and makes brushing your teeth uncomfortable. I've been told that it offers better cleaning than a manual toothbrush and that the sonic action is said to be better than the rotating one, but I'm not sure I'll ever get used to the uncomfortable feeling of brushing my teeth. The head sculpt is a lot smaller than expected but seems to work well. I have found…

Worth every penny! In just 2 weeks I noticed a huge difference and even my dentist was impressed. I first bought these after realizing my gums were overly inflamed which worried my dentist and recommended I switch to an electric toothbrush as soon as possible. On my next visit she was very impressed and knew immediately that I had switched from manual to electric. I did a lot of research between the Philips Sonicare and Oral B models and what really drew me in was the battery life. Oral B…

Sonicare Flexcare Platinum is a great electric toothbrush. It's feature-rich, compact, and does a great job of cleaning. Before writing this review, let me say that I have owned many electric toothbrushes over the years and Sonicares have always been my favorites. I recently had an Oral-B Professional 4000 and loved it, but missed my Sonicare so I bought this. This Sonicare model is a lot smaller than the old model I had and even smaller than the Oral. -B. However, it is large enough to be…
