Gently Cleans Teeth with Sonic Technology

Unlike a manual toothbrush, Philips Sonicare DiamondClean uses powerful Sonic technology to clean teeth with up to 31,000 brush strokes per minute. Sweeping motions drive fluids deep into the tight spaces between your teeth and along your gum line, resulting in a cleaner, healthier mouth.

Achieve better results with DiamondClean: naturally whiter teeth, improved gum health, and better plaque removal than a manual toothbrush. The gentle brushing action of DiamondClean helps prevent gum recession and removes more plaque in hard-to-reach areas compared to a manual toothbrush. Proven to brighten your smile in just one week, DiamondClean will also gently remove coffee, tea and tobacco, and red wine stains.

Sonicare's Best Brush Head

Standard and compact DiamondClean brush heads are included. The angled diamond bristles of the brush head and the uniquely designed bristle field gently clean and whiten teeth by removing surface stains and build-up.

The brush heads snap onto the slim, ergonomic handle for easy replacement and optimal hygiene.

Five Modes Offer a Custom Cleaning Experience

Sonicare DiamondClean offers five unique cleaning modes. Choose from Clean, White, Polish, Gum Care, or Sensitive for a custom cleaning experience. An illuminated display indicates the selected mode and becomes invisible when power is off.

Clean: Two-minute standard mode for a full-mouth clean

White: Gently lifts surface stains to whiten teeth

Polish: Brightens and polishes teeth for a luminous smile

Gum Care: Three-minute mode helps improve gingival health

Sensitive: More gentle motion for sensitive teeth and gingival health

Smartimer and Quadpacer Simplify Brushing

DiamondClean makes it easy to care for your teeth by using two timers to keep you on track. The Smartimer encourages you to brush for a full two minutes, the time recommended by dental professionals, while the Quadpacer beeps in 30-second intervals to make sure you thoroughly brush all four quadrants of your mouth.

Charging Glass and USB Charging Travel Case

DiamondClean's unique charging glass features conduction technology as it charges the toothbrush while resting in the glass, which can also be used for mouth rinsing after removing it from the base. Featuring a rechargeable lithium-polymer battery, DiamondClean lasts up to three weeks (or 42 uses) on a single charge. A battery indicator light on the toothbrush illuminates when power is running low. To recharge, simply place the toothbrush in the sleek charging glass, which rests on a multi-voltage base. You can also charge DiamondClean directly in the USB charging travel case. This innovative travel case allows you to take your Sonicare anywhere - just connect the case to your laptop via USB or plug it into a wall outlet for Sonicare's best cleaning on the go.

4.0 out of 5 stars THE APPLE ELECTRIC TOOTHBRUSH April 20, 2012

By charlesn VINE™ VOICE

Amazon Verified Purchase

Funny, i don't remember reading that Jonny Ive was moonlighting over at Philips. But this is their second new dental product in a row--the first being the AirFloss--that might lead you to think that Sonicare design was now being done by Apple. And I mean that in the most complimentary way. This is, without question, the most modern and elegantly designed electric toothbrush on the market today, and I can only compare holding it to the feeling you get when you hold an Apple product. But is it worth the premium price being charged for it?

THE ANSWER IS YES, IF...

1) You have money to splurge a bit and value great design very highly. The ceramic feel of the power handle (though not actually ceramic), the hidden areas that illuminate to indicate mode and battery status, the brilliance of a travel case that both closes magnetically and charges the power handle via USB cable from your computer or the included USB power adapter--the whole package has just been thought through with incredible attention to detail. There's even an alternative to the one feature I didn't like, which was the charging glass--it looked too big and clunky in photos, which is exactly how it looks when you actually see it. Plus, do we really need to mimic the old, unsanitary practice of standing wet toothbrushes up in a glass to store them? Fortunately, there's a much smaller and more elegant charging stand included that can be used instead of the glass. You never see that in photos of this toothbrush, and I was very pleased.

2) You don't care if the premium price buys you no functional or performance advantage of any type over cheaper models in the Sonicare line. You know you're paying for the design, and you're fine with it.... (Yes, I agree that the DiamondClean brush heads ARE a notable improvement, but they can be used on other, less expensive Sonicare models. See below.)

THE ANSWER IS NO, IF...

1) You expect a premium price to buy you better functionality and performance over less expensive models. The DiamondClean toothbrush doesn't, trust me. Ignore most of the five star review hype that you read about this brush ("Cleanest Teeth EVER!") and focus on these facts:

a) The power handle, which is the heart of any electric toothbrush, is just the FlexCare+ handle with a different skin on it. Specs are identical and--if you go to a store and hold them side by side--you'll see that size, shape and weight are the same. Only the elegant, ceramic-like skin on the DiamondClean model, with it's hidden lights, is different.

b) While the DiamondClean brushes DO clean somewhat better than older Sonicare brush heads, you can use DiamondClean brushes on some of the older, cheaper Sonicare models like FlexCare. Since the power handles are essentially no different, the cleaning you get will be the same.

2) It drives you crazy to pay more and actually get less for your money. As others have pointed out, the DiamondClean doesn't have the UV sanitizer of the less expensive FlexCare models. And I just saw a Costco special that included two Sonicare power handles, two chargers, two travel cases, plus four brush heads that included two DiamondClean ones... all for $120.

3) Design just isn't that important to you.

The value of great design is very much a personal decision. While I decided that the DiamondClean was worth it for me, it might not be for you, depending on your priorities. But either way, I thank you for taking the time to read my review. and I hope you found it "helpful" in making your purchasing decision!

UPDATES: The longer you use a product, the better you get to know it. The section below contains more on the pros and cons I've experienced since I wrote the above review after extended use of the DiamondClean:

PROS: 1) The ceramic-like power handle, which I thought might get slippery during usage when wet, actually maintains a nice grip to it.

CONS: 1) No vent holes in the travel case, made worse by its form-fitting plastic interior. So if you pack the brush head while damp--which often happens when traveling--it stays damp, in a dark, tightly enclosed space--the perfect conditions for promoting bacteria and mold growth. 2) When a second family member recently joined me in using the DiamondClean, I suddenly realized that there's no storage for multiple brush heads. (Except in the travel case.) Plus, there's no system for color-coding the heads for different family members. Bottom line: you have to store multiple brush heads in a medicine cabinet or elsewhere and somehow color code them yourself. Read more ›

3.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the upgrade if you own a previous model.... November 4, 2011

By Howard

I really wanted to give this toothbrush 5 stars, but I just couldn't. It's not a bad device by any means but it's partly a step backwards from the Flexcare+ model and is it really worth the price?

Let me start off by saying this is the 4th Sonicare Toothbrush I've owned. I had the Essence, than the Flexcare, than the Flexcare+ and now the DiamondClean.

If you have the Flexcare or the Flexcare+ do you really need to upgrade to this model? Probably not, Sonicare's own website states you get a 44% better clean using the new DiamondClean heads, so the handle obviously makes no difference.

Don't get me wrong the new handle is very cool, slick design, even slicker charging options, but did Sonicare have to remove features to do this? For instance:

The battery icon is now 1 solid icon rather than 3 different slices, now you can't tell when the battery is getting low.

The button to change modes was removed, now there is one button for power and mode changing, this means unless you want to splatter toothpaste all over your mirror you need to change the mode in your mouth while trying to squint at the brush to see what mode it's on.

Why was the UV cleaner removed? Ok, I really didn't use this often but it was cool to know I had it.

This toothbrush is very expensive, and your basically paying for the cool charging technology, and the absurdly overpriced new brush heads. Currently a pack of 3 runs almost $35. In contrast a pack of 7 ProResults can be had at a big name Warehouse store for around $40.

Also while putting your toothbrush in the cup for charging is cool, is that really practical?... If anything it's going to start making the bottom of the handle sort of gross, how many germs collect in that cup overnight unless you clean it every day.

So in conclusion, cool charging technology does not take the place of convenience features. Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 stars Teeth are CLEANER than going to a dentist! The Best! 4 Stars?? September 12, 2011

By wax

***FIRSTLY A BIG DISCOVERY***: I bought 2 Diamondclean brushes and had a problem charging both, but only in one specific outlet. Everywhere else it charged fine but the one outlet I needed it to charge in (bathroom) it wouldn't. It drove me crazy to the extent that I had 2 different electricians out and not until just now on my own, did I discover the problem. The base was sitting on my metal medicine cabinet which sits below my mirror (older style built in to apartment prob from 70's) and the metal was preventing the induction charging!!! If this brush's base sit's on metal it WILL NOT CHARGE!! To make matters worse the indicator lights behave as if it is charging so you have no way of knowing. Shame they don't tell you this, would have saved Philips a return for no reason, and saved me 2 electricians and DAYS of headache.

I'm a LONG time 10+ years sonicare user and have always had the latest model, last being the flexcare with UV sanitizer. Although this Diamondclean model looks very cool and appears to have a nicer brush head I wasn't expecting that much difference in performace over the flexcare which is already great. Needless to say I was blown away. This is 10 times better than the previous model solely in performance. And I'm referring to performance of the unit in terms of power. Way more powerful. In all honesty my teeth feel CLEANER than after going to the dentist. They literally feel like glass.

Why only 4 stars? (Originally I gave it 3 bc I thought there was a battery issue but I figured it out) Firstly you aren't able to select the setting you want until it's already on and spraying your bathroom with toothpaste. This isn't a huge deal especially if you use the same setting every time (though that kinda defeats the purpose of the selection).... You literally have to turn it on (while looking at it) to cycle through the settings and select the one you want. And since the pause only works after it's been in the same setting for like 10 seconds, the alternative is selecting the setting before you put toothpaste on, standing there and holding it for 10 seconds running just to be able to pause it, to then put toothpaste on it. I guess this is the tradeoff of having only one button.

The other issue is the base had imperfections and scuffs. I opened 4 more brushes and most of the shiny chromed bases are scuffed. The glass is also scratched and has a sharp unpolished lip. You wouldn't find something this bad at a 99 cent store. In all honesty I don't think these things will bother or even be apparant to most people. Which is most likely why Philips allows it. IMO they need to step it up in the quality control department if they want to continue to attract discerning customers that will spend $200 on a toothbrush VS the ones that would rather spend $50-$100. I'm the $200 brusher and I expect a base without imperfections and scuffs for my $200 toothbrush. Period.

I found out they are manufactured in both Thailand and China. the base was flawless in the thailand brush. The china brushes were the ones with the lackluster bases. Read more ›
