Braun Oral-B Professional Care 8000

I've been using an electric toothbrush for quite a few years now as recommended by my dentist. Apparently electric toothbrushes are likely to remove twice as much plaque as a regular manual one and are generally better for clean teeth and healthy gums. I'd had my old Oral B one for a while but it wasn't charging very well so it seemed that it was about time for me to get myself a new one. Having liked my old Braun Oral B toothbrush I decided to go for the same make again and chose the professional care 8000. It has an attractive sleek design and it was also on a half price offer in Boots so I could not go wrong. Its usual RRP is £49.99 so you can see that the ...  Read the complete review

We've had this toothbrush for about a year now and think it's a great electric toothbrush. It comes with a plug in docking station which makes for easy recharging, you simply place it on the station. As we all know the recommended brushing time is 2 minutes, I do wonder how many people actually do this! This toothbrush splits the 2 minutes out into 30 second sections, one for each quarter of your mouth, at which point there is a couple of pauses in the vibration, this means it's time to change quarters! In my opinion this is great as it helps you to ensure that you are spending equal amounts of time on all your teeth. I think that the handle is nice ...  Read the complete review

After a recent visit to the dentist I had a lovely scale and polish and my teeth looked lovely and white. My quest then began to keep them looking like that as it is hard being a tea and red wine drinker as well as a smoker! I have always used manual toothbrushes so started looking at electric ones as they claim to remover twice as much plaque. Luckily I didn't buy one straight away as I was lucky to receive this toothbrush from my mum for my birthday! I wasn't offended as she knew I was looking at buying one for myself anyway! **Features** This toothbrush has a small compact round head. The head is made up of three different types of ...  Read the complete review

I may be ancient but there is one thing I have that some much younger men do not and that is my own teeth. I have looked after my teeth almost religiously and continue to do so. I recently purchased a new toothbrush and for the first time I have gone electric. My choice of electric toothbrush after careful consideration was the Braun ORAL-B PC 8000 DLX D 18.581 X, god only knows why they have to give it such a long title but there you go, it is also known as simply the Braun Oral-B Professional Care 8000 which is a bit easier on the tongue! This brush comes with four interchangeable heads and has both oscillating and pulsating cleaning ...  Read the complete review

I've had this toothbrush about a year and it is still functioning brilliantly. Lasts about a week on the charge but I do tend to top it up a bit more often to keep it running at full power. Easy to buy replacement heads and although it is only me using the unit, I like the colour coded rings in the packet of heads so that a different family member can using the same base with their own toothbrush head. Replacement heads are a bit pricey but thats the same with all electirc toothbrushes. Only thing that I find is that the bottom of the head can get mucky with dried on tootpaste etc so I have kept an old head and use this under hot water to clean around the top ...  Read the complete review
