Excellent toothbrush - a must need., January 16, 2006
This review is from: Philips Sonicare Essence HX5752 Power Toothbrush (Health and Beauty)
I've been using the Sonicare toothbrushes since they came out. My father is a dentist and we got some samples to try out. I had tried the Oral-B rotary style brushes and I feel that the sonicare is superior and the brush heads seem to last longer. Plus, with rotary there is more friction which, if you overbrush, can wear down your enamel and possibly hurt your gums (many people do not know that you can overbrush).
I've taken the sonicare on travel many times for weeks on end and the battery life is impressive.
Some people find it difficult to pay close to $100 for a toothbrush and then having to buy replacement brush heads at $10 a piece every 6 months.
I don't think you can afford not to use a sonicare. Your dentist will definitely be able to tell a difference.
As always, there is no substitute for flossing. When they come out with one, someone will become a multi-millionaire.

Buy the FlexCare with or without the UV, July 8, 2008
This review is from: Philips Sonicare Essence HX5752 Power Toothbrush (Health and Beauty)
Do yourself a favor and buy the Sonicare FlexCare. The newer FlexCare models are an upgrade without the screw-on design flaw of this Sonicare model. This model has a hideous design where the saliva and other brushing liquids seep down into the inner mechanisms of the hand piece and pool up in a really disgusting way and requires you to take it apart and clean off inner crevices made up of metal and plastic parts. The new design eliminates all that slew of slime. This brushing action is fantastic, just like the new one, but this design stinks...literally.

Teeth feel so clean you'd think you just came from the dentist, December 30, 2005
This review is from: Philips Sonicare Essence HX5752 Power Toothbrush (Health and Beauty)
Only without the scraping! My teeth feel so smooth and clean, just like they'd been cleaned by the dentist. I was an agressive brusher before, but this is amazing. My gums even feel so much stronger now. I've noticed my teeth look whiter now than they ever have as well. I've noticed this toothbrush on the Friday sale, several different weeks. If you're looking to buy, I highly recommend doing it on a Friday, check out the Friday sale.
