The one with the UV light in the charging stand

My Sonicare with travel case (with integrated charger) is by far the best electric toothbrush I have ever used. Came here to say this.

Not bulky, no. And the built in charger is a blessing.

I bought a sonicare from Amazon for cheap and it lasted about a year. I bought another sonicare from my dentist and it's still going strong, six years later.

I have tried manual toothbrush and the Philips One travel toothbrush and they don’t compare to the full size Sonicare, which I now bring on every trip. Obviously, I don’t bring the big case.

I take off the head and use the cap that comes with head refills https://preview.redd.it/55qc75oeonog1.jpeg?width=778&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1c0dc3805041a35b7bb85842c5837ee331d11a83

Why do you need a case at all? I travel with a Sonicare and separate the head from the body and use the tiny cap that comes with replacement heads. https://preview.redd.it/scm4aoprhmog1.jpeg?width=778&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e5fddee74590ffed76e7b348a37da8497592a7f9

I have a different model, but you can buy small alternatives to the case charger.

I bring my full size Sonicare too. I had the same experience with Philips One. About to leave on a two month trip and I'm tempted to take a travel water flosser as well.

I will not deinfluence you. Mas okay ang Philips Electric Toothbrush Sonic series. There are some published studies na better ang mentioned brand na yun. Dentists also agree when it comes sa clean function and bristles shape.

Yeah why does my oral B get moldy and my sonicaire doesn’t? Also an RDH. 😂

I prefer Oral B to my Sonicaire. Look up BASS brushing technique on YouTube but also there are videos how to specifically brush with an electric because you do not need to use a scrubbing motion.

I prefer the oral B iO. Oral B brush head is better in general when used properly imo especially in the back. The only thing I do prefer about the sonicaire is they don’t get that mold issue that oral B has not figured out yet. I just have to frequently remove and clean out the brush head area on the oral B.

I actually disagree with the other comment and prefer the oral B. I have both and I’ve been using the sonicaire for about a month now. They both are great but oral B feels more gentle. The sonicaire is pretty intense and since it’s larger I think there is slightly more potential to incorrectly clean the gums, causing damage.

Yeah it’s definitely a personal preference thing! I can understand why some people prefer the usual brush head of the sonicaire because it feels more familiar.

I have an electric toothbrush and a WaterPik (the WaterPik is for flossing, but with water, and works surprisingly well for it... got it mostly to clean my sockets out when I got my wisdom teeth removed, but that's another tangent).  I use a Philips Sonic Care. It has multiple modes of vibration for you to choose from, and you can turn the intensity up over time as you get used to it. Alternatively, if the vibration REALLY bothers me that day (because it still happens) I put on my Heavys, turn on Hellblocker, and blast music.
