Oral-B 1000 Pro electric toothbrush

Product Information

The Oral-B Pro 1000’s bristles oscillate (rotate) at 8,800 strokes per minute. By comparison, a manual toothbrush averages roughly 300 strokes per minute. Oral-B claims this helps its brush head remove 300 percent more plaque than a manual toothbrush. These 2 brushes fall at the lower end of the electric toothbrush range from Oral-B, but they offer most of what you need of an electric toothbrush at a good price point. As the name implies this mode is more gentle. It is designed to offer a softer, but thorough clean. It helps those with sore or inflamed gums, but reducing the number of movements in the brush head, making for a more comfortable brushing experience, until the sensitivity has gone or reduced. This mode is great if you are suffering from gum disease. Combined with the exponentially higher strokes per minute, these features mean better oral hygiene and fewer trips to the dentist. 3. Comfortable to Use Our Oral-B 1000 models are an excellent choice and they are all actually the same unit in terms of power and technicality. The difference between them is the brush head which comes in the box (eg. CrossAction 1000 will have a CrossAction toothbrush head), and the color of the toothbrush handle.

All system components (e.g., toothbrush handle, charger, power cord, SmartGuide). You do not need to include accessories like the brush heads or refill stand. After each brushing session, remove the brush head and thoroughly rinse both the brush head and the handle under running water.

How we did the test

The Oral-B Genius 9000 is a next-generation electric toothbrush. It comes equipped with its own app, which is really well designed and engaging. After a while you may realise that the app has actually made it more enjoyable to brush your teeth. The app shows exactly where in the mouth you should brush, how clean your teeth are and when it’s time to move your brush to another position. You can tailor the brushing to your own personal oral health, either by yourself or in consultation with a dental hygienist or dentist. The Genius 9000 includes a holder for your mobile phone so that you can attach it to the wall or on a mirror to properly see it as you brush. If you really want to personalise your teeth brushing process, you can even change the colour of the lamp built into the brush. It also comes with a travel case, which is handy if you plan on taking the toothbrush with you when you travel. The toothbrush’s charging stand is equipped with a head holder, making it easy for several people in the same household to all use the toothbrush. The Pro 1000 has a more minimalistic design. A small rubber grip around the power button compared to the large rubber grip running the full length of the Pro 2 2000’s handle.

Oral-B iO™ with revolutionary iO™ technology is the latest Oral-B electric toothbrush. After six years of research and over 250 patents, Oral-B iO™ sets the new standard of brushing performance, experience, and design. Experience a deep but uniquely gentle clean with a new frictionless magnetic drive. It directs all energy to the bristles to generate new micro-vibrations. The result is Oral-B’s best ever clean: 6x more effective plaque removal along the gumline for 100% healthier gums in one week.** It offers all the essential features of electric toothbrushes while forgoing some of the bells and whistles of more advanced models. There are no additional settings or smart apps to worry about. The Pro 1000 has a dimpled texture that runs the full length of the handle, whereas the 2000 has a series of raised plastic ridges. Those ridges start from just below halfway up on the handle and extend to the top of the handle.With the Oral-B Genius 10000N, that clean mouth feeling you normally only get on the way home from the dentist’s can become an everyday experience. This electric toothbrush has everything – and of course you have to pay accordingly. But rather than an unfortunate expense, the price you pay for a Genius 10000N feels more like an investment in your own oral hygiene. BUT, one of the biggest flaws of the Smart 5 is the fact that you can’t easily tell what cleaning mode you are using. The Genius resolves this issue to a point with a series of icons that illuminate on the handle when the selected mode is in operation. The Smart 6’s brush head holder is a moulded piece of plastic that clips around the charging stand and offers up 2 prongs. The brush heads then sit on these. It keeps them upright and they do not touch, but they are not covered like they are with the compartment with the 9000, which can accommodate up to 4 brush heads.

The Pro 3 3500 offers the features we regard as essential (a pressure sensor and a timer) at an affordable price. The Pro 600 has a light indicator showing the battery charge. The use period for a full charge is around 30 minutes, which corresponds to around a 6-7 day battery life if you brush for 2 minutes both morning and evening. The toothbrush also has a mechanical pressure sensor to ensure gentle brushing, combined with a two-minute timer to ensure you use it for the recommended brushing time. People who use manual toothbrushes brush for an average of 45 seconds. 4 This isn’t long enough to completely clean your teeth. The timer and pacer ensure good brushing habits. A new magnetic charger means the brush can be recharged in as little as 3 hours, rather than the more typical 12.Oral-B offers a variety of replacement heads to ensure you can find the one that best suits your oral care needs. The below brush heads fit all of our electric toothbrush handles (except Oral-B iO). Browse below our entire line of Oral-B replacement brush heads.
