If you're looking for a new electric toothbrush, but don't want to spend a lot of money, you might want to consider one of Oral B’s new Vitality electric toothbrushes. Oral B has developed a new rechargeable electric toothbrush line for under twenty dollars, including one with sonic technology! These fully rechargeable electric toothbrushes became available to the public in August 2006. The Oral B Vitality toothbrushes are available in three different variations.

Product Variations

  1. Oral B Vitality Precision Clean
    • This toothbrush is clinically proven to reduce up to two times more plague than a manual toothbrush.
    • The Precision Clean provides a more thorough and deeper cleaning that surrounds each tooth.
    • The oscillating, rotating brush head of this Oral B Brush moves at 7600 times a minute while a regular manual brushing provides about 260 times a minute.

  2. Oral B Vitality Dual Clean
    • This toothbrush has a dual action brush head that is designed to provide twice the cleaning action.
    • The oscillating rotating brush head of the Vitality Dual Clean toothbrush also moves at 7600 time a minute.

  3. Oral B Vitality Sonic
    • This toothbrush uses sonic technology to successfully remove stains and plaque.
    • The criss cross bristles of this toothbrush are patented by Oral B and vibrate side to side, while gently massaging your gums. This sonic toothbrush gently removes plaque with almost 20,000 movements per minute.

Features and Benefits

Each of these electric toothbrushes provide a rubberized, non slip (even when wet), soft and ergonomic grip that is very comfortable and easy to control, which also makes it ideal for arthritis sufferers. These toothbrushes also contain a built in two minute timer that signals when you have brushed your teeth for the recommended time.

The Bottom Line

When I first got one of these Oral B Vitality toothbrushes, I was pretty skeptical because they are so inexpensive. I can honestly say that I love it and it works great. These toothbrushes are fully rechargeable and will last up to five days on one charge.
