Sonicare Toothbrush Head

The Sonicare toothbrush head is designed to reach those pockets in your teeth that catch food and are hard to reach with typical brushing. There are two basic head sizes. The standard size is used for everyday cleaning. The compact size is used for precision cleaning when even more thoroughness is needed than is achieved with the standard size.

The brush head has many more advantageous features than just size though. The head was designed with contours that enable the bristles to surround the tooth and reach deep into those recesses where cavities start. These recesses are between the teeth, between the teeth and gums, and in the far corners of the mouth that often are missed when brushing with a traditional toothbrush. The bristles have a wider too so each stroke covers additional tooth surfaces.

In addition, when the electric toothbrush is in motion, the sweeping moves clean consistently. But just as important is the fact the toothbrush is gentle on the gums. The bristles are not abrasive and yet are strong enough to clean teeth effectively. The Sonicare bristles are a marvel of technology.

Sonicare makes a number of toothbrushes and the brush heads fit the various models including the Sonicare Elite 7500 and the Sonicare kids electric toothbrush. Replacement brush heads are made to fit all the standard handles plus there are slim-angled neck brushes that fit the Sonicare Essence. The brush head lasts a full three months and then is easily replaced. You don’t want to allow the Sonicare toothbrush head to deteriorate too much because then it is unable to effectively do its job.
