Oral-B 7500 Power Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush with Replacement Brush Heads and Travel Case, White

Muy efectivo y practico realiza una limpieza muy profunda dejando reluciente los dientes

For the past five years, I’ve been using a Quip electric toothbrush and was pretty devoted to it, but this Oral-B 7500 blows the Quip out of the water. I was honestly shocked at how much better the Oral-B cleans my teeth. I guess not all electric toothbrushes are created equal, lol.PROS- Cleans MUCH better than the Quip.- No AA batteries to throw out.- Love the two-minute timer. You can use the Oral-B app to subdivide the timer into 4 or 6 sections (30 seconds each or 20 seconds each, respectively).- Love the size of the brush heads; more nimble & better reach than Quip.- The pressure sensor light is great for in-the-moment feedback.- The variety of brushing modes is excellent and gives this brush versatility.- Comes with a travel case and storage tray for extra brush heads.CONS- Brush handle arrived scratched on the front. This could have easily been prevented with a plastic sleeve, which, incredibly, Oral-B put over the travel case but not over the brush handle. 🙄- Loud motor, especially compared to the near-silent Quip. Can’t listen to podcasts while brushing my teeth anymore. But that’s okay, I guess, because I use the Oral-B app while brushing now.- Takes a LONG time to charge (10 hours).- Instruction manual doesn’t explain the different icons & brushing modes. You have to download the app to see what they are. But I’ll explain them to you now.WHAT EACH ICON MEANS- Tooth: “daily clean” mode- Tooth with plus sign: “pro clean” mode- Diamond: whitening mode- Feather: sensitive mode- Wavy lines: gum-care mode- Tongue: tongue-cleaning modeBRUSHING MODESNot gonna lie, the intensity of the “daily clean” mode (tooth icon) seemed aggro at first, especially compared to the Quip’s super gentle vibration. So for now, I am only using the “sensitive” mode (feather icon) while I am getting used to this new brush.I’m sure I will be able to graduate to the “daily clean” mode in a week or two.THE APPYou really do need to download the Oral-B app to get the most out of this toothbrush. The app is excellent and lets you change a ton of settings on the brush, like the timer, ring light color, goals, and more. It also tracks your history, flossing, mouthwash use, and brush head replacement schedule.The app also offers challenges, brushing journeys (ex., plaque busting, bad breath), and “medals” to strive for if you want to adopt healthier brushing habits.Importantly, you can use the app to disable any of the individual brushing modes so that it only cycles through the ones you want. You can also reorder them so that the brush automatically starts on your preferred mode. I only have the sensitive and tongue-cleaning modes enabled at the moment, and I can switch between them by pressing the down arrow on the brush handle.The only downside to the app is that the position detection (using your phone’s front-facing camera) doesn’t work very well. I turned that off and instead just use the regular guided-brushing mode, which shows a timer on the screen.SUMMARYOverall this is a fantastic toothbrush, and despite the minor downsides, I am thrilled with it and genuinely shocked at how much better it cleans than the Quip. Glad I bought it.** UPDATE, six months later, May 2023 **I just got back from the dentist today, and my hygienist told me, “Wow, your teeth are extremely clean! You have great oral hygiene.” I told her I had switched from the Quip to the Oral-B, and she nodded knowingly and said it’s obvious when a patient has started using either an Oral-B or a Sonicare.I’ve found that I prefer different brushing modes for different brush heads. I’m still mostly using the “sensitive” mode (feather icon), but I do switch it up with the “daily clean” mode (tooth icon). I haven’t used the “pro clean” mode (tooth with plus sign) because, well, I’m kind of a sensitive person, and the noise the Oral-B makes is already loud enough. The “gum care” mode is nice if you floss too enthusiastically one day and need to take it easy the next day.I am still highly impressed with this toothbrush, and I enjoy using it every day.

I’ve been using it for about 3 months now and paid a lot for features I don’t use like bluetooth phone app and different speeds and settings that I seriously doubt make a difference. That said, battery life is terrific and my teeth feel a lot cleaner after using on the max speed/standard setting vs. my older Oral-B.

We have some Oral-B Pro 1000 units. One of them died, when the battery got too old to take a charge. I was going to buy the same moe for about $40, but caught this one on a one day sale for $90. Since it has multiple modes, supposedly a better battery and some accessories like a charging dock and travel case, I figured I'd give it a shot (Oral-B does offer a 60 day satisfaction guarantee).The unit comes with three brush heads: Cross Action, 3D White, and Floss Action.The 7500 cleans very well, and has 6 different modes as well as the ability to set a timer for 2 minutes or 30 second intervals. It has an LED ring at the neck which is white but will change red if you apply too much pressure.It charges reasonably fast (a couple of hours the first time) and holds its charge great. The charger itself is the standard Oral-B unit but fits onto a covered case which holds 4 heads. The cord is about 3 feet.The travel case is white plastic, and holds a brush and two heads.The modes are as follows:* Daily Clean* Pro-Clean (Deep Clean on older models)* Sensitive* Whitening* Gum Care* TongueMy sole complaint about 7500 is the user manual. It is written for multiple models, so while some mode icons are obvious (a tongue for tongue cleaning), you are left to guess the others. They are:* Daily Clean - No icon lit except for power and bluetooth lights* Pro-Clean - Tooth with a + sign* Sensitive - Feather* Whitening - Diamond* Gum Care - "Waves"* Tongue - TongueThe 7500 also is bluetooth, so you can download the Oral-B app on your phone and use it to monitor your brushing habits. The app works decently enough and the bluetooth connectivity seems consistent. I consider the app a nicety, not something I need to know if I brushed for 2 minutes. It will remind you to change brush heads too.Overall, I don't know that this cleans that much better than the 1000 but I like the extra battery life and having a few more modes.

I *highly* recommend this toothbrush and the app that goes with it. I have a phobia of teeth and I have had an extremely difficult time being willing to brush my teeth. this toothbrush and the app have helped IMMENSELY.I only use the sensitive setting, but there are 4 others. additionally there are good soft bristle and other head options for sale that are compatible.the brush itself lights up and vibrates if you brush too hard and buzzes every 30 seconds to help you keep track of time. it keeps track of where you are brushing (in the app) to be sure you brush your entire mouth evenly (its a little inaccurate sometimes but generally pretty impressive overall).the app gameifies tooth brushing and gives you a score based on if you use correct pressure and get your whole mouth. you can will little badges and keep track of your streaks in the app.I have recommended this toothbrush to all of my loved ones. I legit HATE brushing my teeth but this has made it SO much easier for me and it has been a really encouraging experience. highly recommend.
