Wow I guess I'm just really behind on tooth care, then again makes sense as I don't have any teeth left...
I got it as part of a product testing survey, and on receipt thought it was ridiculous. Honestly a great brush though. It was the top tier model at the time, and when the day comes it no longer works, I'd get a simpler one, but for people that may benefit from some light assistance getting better at brushing, it does offer a lot of helpful features at a price less than getting one filling! ๐
Funnily enough we had an issue at my last job where operators had to brush off debris from milled plastic components and had to almost perfect getting every piece. They would rinse them in water, spray them with sodium bicarbonate, cut off anything attached with razor blades and then brush them off. We tried a variety of different brushes across all price ranges and intended purposes. Only one that people liked, did a good job, didn't damage material was oral b electric tooth brushes. We even tried like a $3000 plastic polishing brush which didn't do as good a job as the cheapest oral b electric toothbrushes we could find on Amazon. The issue was we were not allowed to buy stuff off Amazon so we had to get an exception. I literally made a presentation and attended a meeting with a divisional vice president of a fortune 200 company explaining why we needed to buy electric tooth brushes.
That's pretty funny. ๐
I'm always amazed at the layers of corporate rigamarole to get even the simplest of things.
If you like that, this was a medical device and a major project so we had to write a report and submit it to most health agencies across the globe. Someone in the fda, bsi(for EU), tuv(Brazil and some South American countries) and several other agencies had to read the report on why a tooth brush was acceptable and agree it was the best choice...
Lol say no more. I've been pharmaceuticals-adjacent in various roles for 20 years now. I can very clearly picture these people reading about your toothbrushes! ๐
Honestly I was impressed by how well they did
