iO Series 4 Electric Toothbrush

As a dental hygienist, yes, they make a massive difference! There's even a difference between the make/model. I've had patients upgrade from a standard Oral B electric toothbrush to an Oral B iO (the latest one which has new technology) and there's been a big improvement in their cleanliness even though they haven't changed anything else. I don't get paid by Oral B, I wish I did, but I bloody love their toothbrushes (I'm a weirdo, I know). I encourage all of my patients to get one, and make sure it has a round head and a pressure sensor. If you do go for the iO, you don't need anything above the iO 3, really. The 4 has a screen which shows the battery percentage and a timer, which I personally find really useful but it costs a little bit more than the 3. They're often on offer online. The heads are more expensive than the standard brushes but they're well worth it. The brushes are quieter and don't rattle as much, I've found a lot of neurodivergent people that struggled to use an older style electric toothbrush have had a lot more success with the iO (several patients, my brother and my best friend, heck I even converted a patient last Friday that was otherwise terrified of an electric toothbrush!). I've seen people go from manual to electric brushes and it's reversed gingivitis. I've seen it help to stabilise periodontitis. Gums are usually so much healthier, and there's a lot less plaque. There's less bleeding, too! A good toothbrush will save you so much money when it comes to dental treatment. It's honestly one of the best investments anyone could make for themselves.

iO 4-et használok lassan 2 éve, semmi panaszom sincs rá. Egyszer egy termékbemutatón volt lehetőségem kipróbálni az iO10-et, nem adott semmi extra pluszt számomra. El is könyveltem magamban, hogy nem cserélném le a régebbi szériát.

Én az Oral-B iO Series 4-et használom. Először a hármast néztem, de ahhoz nem volt applikációs lehetőség, árban pedig nem volt nagy különbség. Az appot párszor használtam, inkább az elején volt fontos, hogy értsem mit kell csinálnom a fogkefével. Nagyon bejött, közösen használjuk a feleségemmel mivel a fejeket lehet cserélni és a rajta lévő szimbólumok miatt könnyen megkülönböztethetőek. Ami zavar, hogy app nélkül nem látom melyik módot használom és a töltöttséget sem jelzi (nyilván ez a drágább modellekben elérhető). A töltési ideje valóban sok kb. 16 óra, de este töltjük 3-4 naponta. Edit: az iO4 mellett szólt az is, hogy volt hozzá doboz/tok utazáshoz.

The Oral B is pretty much an iO Series 4 minus the Bluetooth capability. I’m guessing it’s a Costco specific version. I have an iO Series 7 and I love it, the brush heads do a really good job of cleaning teeth and the led to let you know if you’re pressing too hard is nice too.

Ive had them all, pricey and base versions too. From my personal experience, one or two levels above base models (oral-b io4 or Sonicare 4100 are great) clean every bit as well as the top models so don't waste your money. Also, Oral-b IO brush heads are WAY more expensive on average so overall its more cost effective to go with Sonicare. They will ALL brush most effectively for about 1.5-2 years, then the motors and/or battery noticeable weaken and dont brush as well. Again, if you buy the near base models on sale (typically $30) its no big deal to replace every 1.5 years or so other than the guilty conscience for adding more plastics to the world. If they have issues early on (only ever had an issue with an Oral-b battery dying about 6mo in), both companies were great about sending out another replacement handle. Sonicare batteries tended to last me 2 weeks between charges while Oral B IO lasts about 1 week. So I took the Sonicare on short work trips without the charger. Take the brush head off and its easy to pack. Lastly, the Sonicare's seem to get my teeth cleaner feeling when new, but dropped off faster after about 1 year (so I replace them at that time). The oral-b IO isnt as great at first but remained more consistent throughout until aboutj 1.5 years in, so I replaced the io4 then. Why have both? Why not? I was curious like most people and both were about $40 on sale several times throughout the year on Amazon.

100% bought iO4 - and it basically went all mouldy regardless of how well I cleaned it. Using a normal toothbrush until I can find a replacement and it might be that Suri is the answer.

Oral B Io4, fogorvos ajánlotta fognyaki kopások miatt, ezzel nem sikálom szét a zománcot de nagyon alaposan tisztít. Szeretem nagyon:)
