Sweeping My Teeth with Oral B

Man, I sure am creative with my titles huh?  Do you guys use a regular toothbrush or do y’all have a battery operated one like this Oral B Deep Sweep?  I have always used a regular ol’ toothbrush so I was actually excited to try this out. I wasn’t sure what to expect really.  I have pretty sensitive teeth because they are so bad.  Dentists are expensive you know?  My grandmother had dentures by 40 so who knows, I could be on that same path.  One thing I can do now is brush & floss.

When I received the Oral B Sweep, it was pretty simple to setup.  You simply snap the brush head in place and charge.  So let me be clear here, I have NEVER used anything like this.  I’m sure you can imagine my somewhat surprised reaction when I turned on and began to brush.  There was obviously lots of vibration as I went all over my teeth and gums.   At one point, I took it out to spit, only to have toothpaste all over my glasses, mirror, and shirt.  I guess it would have been smart to turn it off before spitting and then turning it back on to finish.  But no, not me.  After all was said and done, I felt like I had come out of the dentist office with a full blown cleaning.  My teeth looked clean, my mouth felt clean, and I could absolutely tell a major difference in using this vs a manual toothbrush.   I really really like it and will continue to use it my home.    Some product info you might be interested in includes:
