Oral-B Precision Clean-4 Power Toothbrush Replacement Brush Heads (4 FlexiSoft Adult Refills) Reviews

• An easy, safe, effective way to brush

  
  By AS627L9YJHE1P on 2004-02-10
  Dentists all over the country are recommending the Oral-B electric toothbrush. There are several reasons. It does the work for you, vibrating thousands of times a second, massaging your gums, it lets you clean your teeth without scraping your gums with a toothbrush, which can cause them to recede and bleed, and it reaches between your teeth to catch plaque and germs. This is a wonderful toothbrush, and I recommend it. However, if you want a review of a toothbrush, you'll read the toothbrush page. This is a page for replacement heads.

  There's a lot of confusion about replacement heads for Oral B electric toothbrushes on Amazon, and I just want to give you all some facts. There are only three kinds of heads for ALL Oral-B electric toothbrushes. Flexisoft EB17, Extrasoft EB17, and Ortho OD17. I prefer Flexisoft EB17, which is what this item is. (The Extrasoft is a little too soft, and the Ortho is overpriced)

  The reason I mention this is that the prices are all over the board for what is the same product. For example, this listing is for four Flexisoft EB17 heads for $24.99 (The EB17-4 just means there are four of them). There are other offers through Amazon partners for this exact same item for $12.99. Make sure you find the best deal, because they're all the exact same product, listed multiple times at different prices!
  
  

• How Something So Basic Can Be Fun

  
  By A2WXIJTI5PEV9N on 2005-03-11
  This review is about the Oral-B Flexisoft replacement heads. Coupled with the Braun electric toothbrushes, this is one of the most effective aids to oral hygiene ever developed. My introduction to Oral-B goes back over 27 years to a USAF basic training briefing; a dental technician held up an Oral-B toothbrush with medium bristles and said "this is the toothbrush you need if you want to keep your teeth" or some such statement like that. Well, I haven't lost one yet.
  
  The motorized mechanicals of the toothbrush do most of the work while you guide the oscillating round head around and over your pearly whites. While the heads are undeniably pricey when looked at just in dollars and cents, there is value in the fact that the total package actually makes a rather mundane chore a little more fun while actually living up to the claim that it does a better job on your teeth than manual brushing.
  
  Since I've always believed the entire surface area of the toothbrush head was meant to be covered with toothpaste and the size of the head on these is smaller than the average brush, I know I'm using less toothpaste to do the same job. While this is no big deal, the long term economic benefit is plaque under control, healthy gums and a bright smile full of natural teeth. It's kind of hard to deny it works since my dentist has confirmed the positive results upon direct examination.
  
  Just be careful what model of these brush heads you are selecting and watch the pricing. Oral-B uses a kind of color code for the bristles, and the ones that have the colored indicator bristles in a line with the shaft are the Flexisoft model that seems to equate to medium hardness.
  
  Enjoy life!
  
  

• rip-off

  
  By A2TL7QS10JS3CZ on 2006-01-16
  The Oral-B is a good product but the refills certainly aren't worth what they charge for them. I don't know about you but it has always annoyed me when you get held hostage by a company to buy their refills for the item they sold you at a rip-off price. They could make a great profit selling these refills at something like $2.50 each, their rip off price of $8.50 ea is beyond absurd. The other thing is that when you buy their toothbrush they have something in there like the brush heads last 2 months. That's a real laugh. Even brushing just once a day, you're lucky if you get a month out of them. So not only do they rip you off with their refill cost, they also lie to you to get you locked into their product to begin with.
  
  

• Defective Items sold by cainternational

  
  By ABQN42N7ICNZQ on 2008-09-20
  I purchased these replacement Oral-B brush heads through Amazaon but they were supplied by cainternational. The packaging appeared to be for the European market. The brushhead came off both my wife's and my brush within 30 days. I would avoid buying the brushes supplied by cainternational.
  
  

• Long-lasting brushes

  
  By A1LE1CGX4WCVL4 on 2006-11-05
  What can you say about a toothbrush? If you own a Braun Oral-B electric toothbrush, you'll need these. This deal is a lot cheaper than buying the individual ones.
  
  
• Best deal on replacement heads
  By A1TUX435DGXGP5 on 2008-05-15
  The 4 pack power toothbrush head replacement will last me a while, and it was cheaper than buying in the store. Shipped immediately, and was using in only a few days. I do recommend this product to anyone that owns the Oral B Power toothbrush.
  
  
• Replacement Brush Heads for Power Toothbrush.
  By A8QP826LLBUG7 on 2006-03-15
  This item is very good but basic for a power toothbrush. There are other heads that offer a more excelent cleaning because of added cleaning devices such as rubber cleaning pics that move alone with the brush itself.

  Yipee. Thanks to amzn/UPS the replacement heads arrived just in time; especially since I had trouble finding this product locally.
  
  
• Better than a Sonicare
  By ARF42CAKI5TO2 on 2008-04-11
  I tried the Sonicare for 6 months. My dentist advised that I needed to brush better. I switched to the Braun/Oral-B and like the smaller flexi-soft head. The smaller head is easier to get into those hard to reach places. My Hygenist noticed a difference in my next cleaning 6 months later.
  
  
• does the job
  By A1UX7IV1KNNJ00 on 2008-08-31
  The Brush Heads are great, i can't complain. They are not too soft, not too hard - just right. They are excellent replacement brushheads for your OralB electronic toothbrush

  Tooth brushes keep changing a little bit and I could not find the brushes that I wanted in the local stores. Thanks for having these brushes available on line and promptly delivered in good shape.
  
  
• Excellent buy
  By ADEL8IQOEIZD3 on 2007-02-06
  I have been using these brushes in my Braun 980TX and I could not ask for more, excellent cleaning.

  By A30B2922L5IWVG on 2007-12-29
  Was looking in the store where we purchased unit, but could not find the replacement heads, so decided to go on line and found them at a good price and just what I wanted.
  
  
• Best value
  By A1GV9ND49PO1BU on 2008-03-03
  Be sure to read the product description and get the heads that ship free from Amazon. It is a good idea to keep several replacement heads in stock to replace every 3 months or when the color begins to fade from the brush head. Excellent fresh, smooth, clean, polished feeling. Promotes healthier gum tissues without damage or encouraging recession.

• Braun toothbrush heads
  By A307Y3LMCVEZS1 on 2008-05-23
  Yup, they do what they're supposed to. My dentist noticed less gum recession after only a couple of months of use.
  
  
• These Do An Excellent Job!
  By A22RY8N8CNDF3A on 2008-06-23
  Visits to the dental hygienist have become far less traumatic (on both of us) since using this product. The different colored bands allow sharing the more expensive base unit. Last a very long time, and worth far more than what is charged here.
  
  
• Great heads!
  By AK0VE9EMYGPM5 on 2008-09-06
  These heads were used on my Vitality brush and they are wonderful. I love the way they clean. I just wish they lasted longer than 3 months.
  
  
• It's okay
  By A38BYT7LTF85ZW on 2006-02-26
  If this is the best they can do on replacement brushheads then it's alright for the time being but they are very expensive...
  
  
• Oral b Precision Clean
  By A2EMBNGLHYHGBB on 2008-09-26
  I have used Oral B FlossAction, Precision Clean, and Sensitive brush heads. I prefer Precision Clean, the FlossAction head is big, has 4 floss rubber around the head, I am not sure it really floss your tooth when you brush, brushing means clean your tooth, I find the brushing action with FlossAction is too harsh to my gums. The sensitive heads, simply is too soft, it is good for sesentive gums. the Precision Clean heads, is not too hard, not too soft, every time I brush with it, I feel my tooth very fresh, and clean.
  
  
• Faulty product
  By A78WSFZQUO50Y on 2008-10-24
  The first brush head started making excess noise and suddenly lost its little metal pin within four uses. I chalked it up to one bad product and put the second one on. Within days that one did the same thing and was pinching the inside of my mouth. So I tried the third brush head. This one actually came apart into two pieces right in my mouth after two or three uses. When the fourth brush head started sounding like the first two had before their pins fell out, I decided this was more than a simple fluke and asked for instructions to return them. The seller has said I will receive a refund but I just sent them back a few days ago. I now assume these were factory rejects and I was not made aware of that before my purchase. I will not buy these online again. I have never had a problem with many of the same product purchased in the store.
  
  
• Flexisoft my elbow!
  By A3404MNCKMUC52 on 2005-11-30
  Although I'm happy with my purchase of these Oral replacements, I have to admit they do leave me feeling raw in my area when used for more than 5 minutes. While they're no match for the original, they still get the JOB done.
  
  
• Fell apart at 2 months of use
  By A6VOT3NK0WTIR on 2008-11-16
  The head on the replacement brush became loose and wobbly after exactly 2 months of use on the first head that I've just replaced again. These appear to be made with lesser quality than other replacements I've used.
  
  
• Great for brushing your kids teeth!
  By A1578Q2INOZ4HR on 2008-10-18
  I am a pediatric dentist and I think this brush head is the perfect size for brushing your child's teeth. It is compact enough to fit in their little mouth. Be sure use the gentler setting on the handle for them, and use light pressure. I use this exact brush for my own kids, and they love it. Miles better than cheaper battery powered brushes. Tyr to get the extra soft bristle type if you can find them. They are very durable. As the parents all know. Kids love to bite down hard on toothbrushes. There brush heads can take the abuse. They just stop spinning when kids bite down on them, and never breaks. http://www.coronakidsdental.com
