About this deal

If you’re concerned about noise, look for an electronic toothbrush that runs quietly. Some models are naturally more noisy than others. Whilst you need to launch the app each time to use it the brush itself can store the data for up to 20 cleans meaning you do not need to always have the app to hand.

Genius 8000/9000 Review - Tech Advisor Oral-B Genius 8000/9000 Review - Tech Advisor

The 8000 and all Oral-B brushes made for the UK come with a 2 pin connector on the charging cables. This is because they have been designed to be used with power outlets found in bathrooms that use a 2 pin configuration. A fully sealed brush it can be used in the shower, rinsed off under a tap etc without issue. Don’t go taking the brush for a swim, but it is designed to resist water. What’s more, it delivers an excellent clean, with three modes – Sensitive, Daily Clean and Whitening – that take you all the way from a softer brush that’s easy on the gums to a more intense polish that should help get rid of staining. Battery life, meanwhile, is exceptional; you’ll easily get through two weeks of brushing and probably three without a recharge. It’s the king of sensibly priced brushes and one of the easiest recommendations in the Oral-B range. Frequent travellers may demand longer battery life and if this is a must take a look at Philips Sonicare DiamondClean, but if 16 days is ample then great.Even for me, even as someone writing about toothbrushes, I find it hard work and difficult to make set up the smartphone in the holder with the app, a bit of a chore and although it may take 15-30 seconds, that's around 25% of the time I would spend cleaning my teeth.

Travel case– A very handy addition and something we should see more of. Protects the brush and avoids accidental activation in transit. A break in the plastic body makes way for a tall, essentially rounded rectangle shaped panel. Within this is a similarly shaped yet smaller rubber pannel in the upper third that has the power button and cleaning mode button. Pros: Top-spec smart features for a more affordable price | regularly discounted | Travel case included | Wireless charging stand

Now you may be thinking that many other brushes from Oral-B or other brands comes with such. Which is fair, but where the 8000 comes into its own needs a little more explanation. To get going and start using the brush you need to press the power button (the one at the top) and to turn it off for 2 seconds to turn the brush off. The button requires a firm push, meaning it is difficult to accidentally power on or off. The app will run on most Android or iOS devices. And uses Bluetooth on your phone and the 8000 brush to pair. Your smartphone must have Bluetooth 4.0 as a minimum for compatibility.

Battery life– Still not perfect or as good as Philips, the extra 2 days of usage time compared to the Pro 6000 makes the Genius more compelling with a total of up to 12 days battery power. These icons show the different brushing modes, which this brush has six — Daily Clean, Pro Clean, Sensitive, 3D White, Gum Care, and Tongue Clean. This also made it very clear which brushing mode you were using, and the interface to switch between them was very easy to operate. The Pro 8000 also has a two-minute timer, buzzing every 30 seconds to alert you to move onto the next quadrant of your teeth. You can get a perfectly functional brush for a lot less but still gain many of the benefits, notably the Pro 3 3500. Number of cleaning modes: 6 - Daily Clean, Sensitive, Gum Care, Intense Clean, Whitening, Super Sensitive You can get a perfectly functional brush for a lot less but still gain many of the benefits, notably the Pro 2 2000Considering the size and weight of a brush might not be your first thought, but you will likely be surprised by what impact it can have on your overall use and comfort of the brush. If it is too heavy or awkward to hold then it will leave you less likely to use the brush for the desired time or longer, often cutting short the cleaning cycle. The 8000 measures and weighs and ergonomically comfortable 24cm tall with the brush head attached and 2.7cm wide and 3.2cm deep and weighs 140 grams.

was the year in which Oral-B brought to market the Pro 6000. At the time it was quite a revolutionary brush providing Bluetooth connectivity and logging of your oral healthcare routine via an app on your smartphone and tablet. Pressure sensor– Applying too much pressure can do more damage than good. Brushing hard is not the answer as bristles of the brush head should skim the tooth surfaces. Thus the built-in pressure sensor that includes a visible red light is a great way of understanding if you are applying too much pressure. Particularly useful if you have not had one before and do not know how much pressure to apply. The app is very comprehensive with lots of options, too many to go through completely in this review. It gives you all you need though to not only effectively brush your teeth, but to log the cleans and motivate you. Patients are not brushing their teeth correctly, even though they think they are; they brush too hard, do not brush long enough, and miss zones of the mouth. This new brushing system helps us coach patients to brush properly, and improve these three main areas of patient brushing behaviours that affect their oral health…The Oral-B GENIUS and App take digital guidance to the next level by bringing awareness to what’s actually happening each time users brush and giving them real-time guidance to improve every brushing session. Now our patients can continue what’s started in the dental office at home – a professionally guided brushing routine.” A break in the plastic body makes way for a tall, essentially rounded rectangle shaped panel. Within this is a similarly shaped yet smaller rubber panner in the upper third that has the power button and cleaning mode button.If you are after a good all round toothbrush, but are not bothered about the smart features and would rather save yourself a few pounds, the Oral-B Pro 3 3500 is our recommendation. This model is comfortable, boasts an excellent battery life, and presents excellent cleaning capabilities Aesthetics aside, Spotlight’s toothbrush is just a joy to use. The three settings are easy to switch between and the sensitivity option is especially good at lowering the intensity while still feeling effective (the misuse of powerful electric toothbrushes can, after all, be a cause of gum recession). Its high-frequency sonic oscillation also means that toothpaste and oxygen are delivered to even the most inaccessible places for a deeper clean.
