 Oral B Vitality - Excellent rechargeable toothbrush at a very good price August 24, 2010
Resips (San Diego, CA USA)
We have used an Oral-B rechargeable toothbrush for at least ten years and have been very pleased with the performance and quality. I don't recall how much we paid for the first one, but it was a good deal more costly. It is still working perfectly. We decided we wanted to have an Oral-B in the bathroom that my DH uses in the morning so he doesn't have to come into my bathroom to finish his grooming. This model is very well priced and can use all five different brush heads that Oral-B produces. This model has two-minute timer so you know when to stop brushing. This model cleans like a dream. Your teeth feel as if you have just had your teeth cleaned at the dentist.
If you are looking for excellent quality at a very reasonable price in a rechargeable toothbrush, look at this model of Oral-B. I don't think you will be disappointed.
Just what the Doc, er Dentist Ordered! August 24, 2010

The Oral-b Vitality is an all-around winner. When my dentist "suggested" that an electric toothbrush could help avoid gum disease, I was hesitant. But the Oral-b Vitality does the job. In four short minutes twice a day (using the 2 minute built-in timer), my teeth have never been cleaner, or my mouth healthier. The rubberized grip is handy, and the charge holds up very well (we recently were w/o power for 3 days, and there was still enough juice in the Oral-B to work effectively).
This should not be confused with a AA battery powered brush; this is an outstanding product.
A quick, highly efficient, superior method of cleaning your teeth August 25, 2010
A Gamer at Heart (Agoura Hills, CA USA)
My family has been using Oral B electric toothbrushes for several years now, after my dentist recommended switching away from manual toothbrushes. We own two, rechargeable, Oral B toothbrush bases and each child and I has our own brushhead that simply snaps on and off.
In comparison to brushing with a manual toothbrush, the Oral B electric toothbrush is a far superior brushing solution. You can't really compare manual brushing to an Oral B anymore than you can compare a bike to a car. A bike will get you there, but not as quickly or comfortably as a car. The oral B accesses harder to reach areas of your mouth easier than a manual toothbrush, and the brush spins much faster than you could ever hope to brush on your own.
In comparison to other electric toothbrushes, I chose the Oral B because it was far more economical than other brands. It is affordable, and the brush replacement costs are very reasonable, especially when you buy bulk packages here or at a warehouse store.
Now, on to this specific Oral B brushhead. The base unit also works with the standard Oral B brushheads that I already use. This brush head is slightly more oval shaped to mimic a tooth's surface and shape, versus the circular standard brushhead. It also has a polishing cup in the center of the brush head where brush bristles would normally be present on the standard, circular brush head. So, picture the standard brush head with a polishing cup in the dead center of the brush head and you can get a mental picture of this new brush head's design.
With the more powerful motor and new brush head, I like this Oral B better than the standard Oral B that I have been using. It cleans even better and I really like the polishing cup since I am a heavy coffee drinker and try to minimize teeth staining. While you can't go wrong with any of the Oral B rechargeable toothbrushes, I would recommend this one. If you are still using a manual toothbrush, I would strongly suggest at least trying out an Oral B rechargeable toothbrush. If you do, you will never go back to manual brushing again. again.
Solid, Reasonably Priced Power Toothbrush. August 25, 2010

How do I make a review of an electric toothbrush interesting? I could put up a video of my 10-year-old daughter squealing with delight as she used it for the first time, toothpaste and drool spraying everywhere. I haven't seen her laugh that hard in a long time. In fact, the next day I realized some of the white spots on my t-shirt were NOT part of the design, but actually were toothpaste spray from my efforts to capture her on video. As electric toothbrush novices, we over-estimated how much toothpaste was needed.
This toothbrush works perfectly fine. It's a great way to get reluctant young tooth-brushers to do at least 2 minutes of brushing because it has a built-in timer, too. It uses an inductive charging system so it won't rust and the battery holds a charge well.
The only downside is that in our bathroom, it seemed as loud as a buzz-saw, but that didn't stop my kid from using it so I can't complain.
A Dentist Cleaning Without The Price August 26, 2010

Until, that is, I got the Oral-B Vitality toothbrush. This toothbrush wowed me from the moment that I took it out of the box. First I have to point out that it comes FULLY CHARGED. Since when does an electronic item arrive at your door without needing charging? I was able to take it out and to use it immediately! The next thing I noticed was how much lighter it was than my three year old sonic toothbrush. It was more slender, shorter, and much, much more comfortable to hold. When I pulled the base out of the box I was simply astounded - how could something so small be a charger? I'd been used to this huge base and now all I had to deal with was this tiny little thing, barely big enough to fit the base of the brush, but it did and it was extremely sturdy as well.
The big challenge, though, was the brushing. My Vitality had a 2 minute warning feature on it, where it sort of stutters in the vibrations when two minutes is up. I loaded up the toothbrush with toothpaste and started the brushing. I could immediately notice the difference from my new Oral-b to my old sonic toothbrush, as this one rotated instead of just going up and down. I could simply gently guide the brush from one tooth to another, just like my dentist does, and the teeth were getting cleaned!
Two minutes actually took much longer than I thought, and I was a bit ashamed to realize that I hadn't been brushing a whole two minutes for quite awhile! But eventually the stuttering happened and I turned off the brush and looked closely to see what the cleaning had done.
WOW. Not only did the brush get in between a lot of my teeth to get some things that would normally be gotten by flossing, but it also polished my teeth as well! I was able to run my tongue around my teeth and was shocked to realize that my teeth felt exactly the same way after my home cleaning as it does after I'm done a visit at the dentists.
I am extremely happy with this toothbrush and am interested in the different heads that you can get to go on the toothbrush! If this head does such an amazing job, I wonder how good the other heads are!
