Philips Sonicare - 3100 series Sonic electric toothbrush HX3671/13

I bought the cheapest one that had a pressure sensor. It was a Philips Sonicare 3100 series. It was 55$ CAD. The heads are pretty expensive but I buy bamboo ones instead

Hi! I have pretty fucked up teeth so I've had a lot of recommendations from dentists etc over the years. Oral-B and Philips Sonicare are the two market leaders and the ones I would go for. They have been around a long time and will most likely continue to be around, meaning availability of spare brush heads, replacement chargers etc is most likely to continue throughout the life of the toothbrush. The main difference between the two is the brush type. Sonicare has the ultrasonic agitation, but a longer, more oval shaped brush head. Oral-B lacks the ultrasonic, (though they do have a similar 'pulsonic' range), but has rotating brush heads that are round. I have had both and personally I prefer Oral-B as I find them easier to get good contact along the tooth surface, especially in molars, and easier to get in behind the molars etc too. You may have a different preference and if you've been using manual brushes so far, Sonicare will have a more familiar shape. Avoid the higher end ones from each brand, they are adding in connected services and all sorts of extra gubbins that just means more electronics and therefore more potential points of failure, ergo reduced BIFL-ness. The only additional feature other than being a toothbrush that I would recommend would be an indicator of brushing pressure (my Oral-B has a red light on the back) - users switching from manual brushes often brush too hard and over time this can cause damage. Something like the Oral-B Pro 3 3000 would fit the bill. Everything you need and nothing you don't. Philips equivalent would be something like the Sonicare 3100 series.

Olyan modellt valassz, ami jelzi azt ha tul erosen nyomod, esetleg meg az lehet hasznos funkcio, ha lehet rajta fokozatot allitani. Nekem philips sonicare 3100 van, ez jelzi ha tulsagosan ranyomom, fokozatot nem lehet rajta allitani. En 1.5 eve hasznalom, meg vagyok vele elegedve.

I would recommend spending a few more dollars to at least upgrade to the 3100 for the pressure sensor. There is a tendency to press too hard with these electric brushes and you can really wear away your gums. The senor gives you an audible and tactile warning so you don't do that

Sonicare 4100 for those buying first time and 3100 if buying the second time.

Use electric toothbrushes. They are value for money, not cheap. Never buy a cheap electric toothbrush. They can be too harsh and therefore harm your teeth. Sonicare 4100 is the lowest priced model that has all the features you need. Sonicare 3100 is good too with slightly fewer features. Buy the A3 or C1 Sonicare brushheads. Cost will come to around 1k per year for the brushheads. Don't buy cheap non branded brushheads either. Although I can't say whether this is the case for sure, it is said that their tips may be too sharp or too blunt and may harm your teeth. Also buy a water flosser. A decent one is sold by Caresmith for around 2k. It is a great BIFL purchase. It is as good as any water flosser that sells for 10k. Among toothpastes the best is Crest Pro-Health Smooth formula because it has Stannous Fluoride. Buy a multi tube pack. Cost comes to about 2k per year. Stannous Fluoride is the only toothpaste ingredient proven to have any long term benefits. Everything else is just marketing bling. Toothpastes with Stannous Fluoride are expensive though. If this is too expensive then just go for the plainest toothpaste from Colgate or a top company that has Sodium Fluoride. You can purchase Stannous Fluoride tubes separately from a pharmacy for about Rs 250 each. You can rub it on your gums with your finger once or twice a week.

Go for Sonicare 3100. It is the second best option. For experienced users it is the first option I'd recommend. These are best by test.

Sonicare 3100, podstawowy model, działa bez zarzutu od paru miesięcy. Przed nią miałam też Sonicare, jakiś inny numer – wyzionął ducha po ponad 5 latach codziennego używania 2-3 razy.

Philips Sonicare 3100. Elég jól bírja az akksija, és nagyon meg vagyok vele elégedve, amióta ezt használom sokkal jobb lett a szájhigiéniám (fogorvos confirmálta, hogy sokkal jobb). Előtte amíg sima fogkefém volt sokszor vérzett az ínyem, meg nem is sikerült mindig normálisan tisztítani, hiába hittem azt, most meg tudom tisztítani normálisan anélkül hogy vérezzen, emiatt már megérte.

Podle mého zubaře a dvou dentálních hygienistek u kterých jsem byl je sonický kartáček lepší než ty rotující hlavy od oral B a ja můžu jen potvrdit. Uz po prvním použití jsem mel pocit ze mam nejčistší zuby v životě. 😀 Co se značky týče tak za mě 100% Philips sonicare. Já mam svůj už takových 7 let a funguje jako nový, překvapivě ani baterka jeste neodešla. Postupně se mi povedlo přesvědčit oba rodiče a tři kamarády. Rodiče si 3 roky zpět koupili ty nejlevnější modely [přesně tyhle](https://www.alza.cz/philips-sonicare-3100-hx3671-13-d6929770.htm), kamarádi koupili nějaký model co se již nedělá. Takže celkově v mém okolí 6 kusů od Philips sonicare a zatím 0 problémů. V životě není moc věcí co bych 100% doporučil, ale tohle je jedna z nich.

Philips Sonicare 3100, super dali gamitin, battery lasts up to two weeks sa single charge. Medyo mahal sya pero worth it naman, may indicator din to change the brush heads.

I purchased the Phillips SoniCare ProtectiveClean 3100 brush and the Waterpik Cordless Pearl water flosser. Both are still going strong three years later and are in under your budget. The brush is awesome because it has the pressure control (if you press too hard it will tell you) and it lets you know every 30 seconds that it's time to move to the next quadrant of teeth. The cordless water flosser is portable. Tip: learn to use it in your shower! Otherwise your bathroom might get a shower of its own! Maintenance of both devices is easy, just follow instructions. Make sure you change out the brush heads every 3-6 months, I highly recommend the sensitive brush heads.
