Phillips Sonicare - $50 at Target. Mine lasts a long time, but you have to replace the toothbrush heads regularly.

it’s powerful yet gentle with great gum care and long battery life.

Outlasted the sonicare by a good margin, and it was only $30.

Sonicare has been around for decades and are excellent toothbrushes, as your current good oral health can attest to.

r/DentalHygieneneutral1

It looks and feels just like sonicare and they are like 25 bucks.

r/DentalHygieneneutral2

if it's just a sonicare replacement I'm good with my current sonicare toothbrush.

r/DentalHygieneneutral1

my current Sonicare is dying. I’ve had it for maybe 8 ish years

r/DentalHygieneneutral1

for my next visit if they notice my teeth being in worse condition than usual, then I'll go back to Sonicare.

I had a Sonicare and recently switched to Oral B. I like the rounded head better on the Oral B.

r/AskWomenOver60positive8

We used sonicare for a very long time and it’s a great product.

r/AskWomenOver60positive6

I bought a mid level sonicare at target. my hygienist noticed the difference. I’ve been using it for about 2 years now. I think it’s worth it.

r/AskWomenOver60positive5

I have a Sonicare that I got at Costco. It was like $30-40. There are Sonicare toothbrushes that sell for like $200, but I don’t need bells and whistles for brushing my teeth!

r/AskWomenOver60neutral3

Philips sonicare $20-30 depends on where you buy it

r/AskWomenOver60positive3

I’ve been using the same Phillips Sonicare for several years. My hygenist said shortly after I started using it that she can see a huge improvement in my gums.

I have a Philips Sonicare. They're usually pretty affordable at Costco.
