Oral-B Pro 1000 Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush White

Oral-B Pro 1000 Rechargeable Toothbrush has not disappointed me. I’ve had my own since 2019. It still functions beautifully. The one thing I’ve noticed is the battery charge doesn’t last as long as it did when it was new. I could go 2 weeks or more without charging. Now it’s about 1 week & I need to charge. I do brush morning & night for the full 2 minutes. I love everything about it. I don’t have sensitive teeth thus my teeth can handle the deep cleaning it provides. I really don’t recommend this if you do have sensitive teeth as I feel it would be too harsh. The timing function works wonderfully for it tells me when to move onto the next area of my mouth. ••To prevent a yukky mess that drips down I have learned 2 things: I thoroughly run water under the brush while it’s running to fully clean it. This, however, doesn’t prevent yuk from your brushing from forming down where the brush head meets the toothbrush. I became tired of a toothbrush that had dried toothpaste on it even though I thought cleaning the head was enough. Unfortunately the yuk does collect at that area & begins the mess. To prevent that I do now take the head of the brush every time I use it now. I just sit in to side in a dry cloth. Hence a clean brush. Since my purchase I’ve purchased 2 more. One for my husband who was told by his Dentist he needed an electric toothbrush because he was developing gingivitis. He loves it because it’s so easy to brush now. The toothbrush does all the work. At first he was doing the brushing & ruined the head a little. So a reminder this does the brushing for you. You only need to move the brush around your mouth. Since having mine I haven’t had one cavity. One thing my hygienist did mention when I first got it was I wasn’t getting high enough to my upper gums. Now I make sure I do. I also purchased one for my 15yo Son as his Pediatric Dentist said it was okay & recommended that he start early with an excellent choice in toothbrushes. For $50- the price hasn’t changed since 2019 - this is well worth getting. For multiple reasons as I feel I thoroughly cleans my teeth. Once I began using this my mouth felt clean & fresh & it does every time I use it. I also feel using an electric toothbrush has saved $ I’d be spending on dental bills. The cost always swayed me away from making the purchase but I’m glad I did. Obviously since mine still works since 2019 there’s definite genuine quality with Oral-B. The box does state it comes with a 2 year limited warranty & there is a 60 day risk free trial. The paperwork details are in the box. For all I’ve written I highly recommend this Oral-B electric toothbrush & I don’t feel you’ll be disappointed. ••I do not purchase genuine Oral-B brush heads. From the beginning I’ve purchased a generic version from Amazon which have worked perfectly. My pictures reflect how nicely it’s packaged upon its arrival. Read more

Had this toothbrush since Jan 2020. No complaints ever! It works perfectly and efficiently for its price. Timer lasts 2 minutes and lets you know when to switch sides. Perfect travel size and have a variation of brush heads. Given that it’s 6 years old, the toothbrush has changed from white to a worn color. Might buy a new one soon simply for the color, not the function. Would recommend! Read more

I purchased this as a replacement for another Oral-B electric toothbrush I had previously. The Pro 1000 is definitely a more basic model in comparison, but it's actually been helpful for a specific issue I was having.Why I bought it: My dentist told me I was brushing too hard and needed to lighten up to avoid further gum recession. I've been using the feather/sensitive mode exclusively and it's helped me develop gentler brushing habits. I haven't tested the other modes yet since this one is working well for my needs. What I like: The timer feature is helpful - it buzzes every 30 seconds to remind you to switch quadrants and signals when you've hit the dentist-recommended 2 minutes of brushing. The gentler brushing mode has been great for protecting my gums. What could be better: Unlike some other models, this toothbrush doesn't automatically shut off after the 2-minute mark. It just keeps running if you're not paying attention, which seems like an odd design choice. You have to manually turn it off.The battery life is also underwhelming. I find myself charging it more frequently than I'd like for a rechargeable toothbrush at this price point. Bottom line: If you're looking for a basic electric toothbrush with gentler brushing options (especially if you have gum sensitivity issues), this is a solid choice. The pressure control feature is genuinely helpful. Just be aware of the battery life limitations and lack of auto-shutoff. Read more

great power, does a really good job cleaning teeth, including in between Read more

I have this, the Oral B ios, and a Sonicare. The Oral B 1000 is the best of the the three, doing a better job of cleaning my teeth. The IOS is good too but it's not as effective for me and its neck gathers dirt and debris and is impossible to keep clean. The Oral B 1000 is louder, it vibrates more, and it doesn't have the bells and whistles of the IOS or the Sonicare. But it works better and it's considerably cheaper. Read more

Good, More efficient than a toothbrush Read more

The spin functions are working greatly. Not too fast for the basic speed and you do feel like you are getting a good cleaning. Read more

I have used Oral-B electric toothbrushes for several years. They are good. I like them. BUT, I have experienced a fairly high failure rate. My first two died in under two years due to water leaking into the case and damaging the circuitry inside. This most recent one failed after a week. The power button quit working. I couldn't turn the brush off reliably, or, eventually, on again. So I sent it back and got the next model up, one of the iQ models. So far, it's working great. I really like the product, and I am hopeful that the iQ style drive (magnetic coupling, I think) will keep water out of the case. Read more
