My wife bought new toothbrush heads on her way home from work today.

They didn't fit. She bought the "Oral B IO" heads, but we have a "regular" Oral B toothbrush, not the Shiny Fancy IO design.

And this is after she bought replacement heads last week at another store -- which turned out to be "compatible for" a different brand :(

Ugh.

Yeah, one of the few electrified versions of traditional products that genuinely has a good reason to be electrified. There's a lot of evidence showing they're way better at cleaning your teeth than a regular toothbrush.

Anecdotally, after using an electric tooth brush, using a "normal" toothbrush leaves my teeth feeling fuzzy not matter how well I brush.

Also, it used to be that my teeth would feel super clean and smooth after the dentist. I barely notice the difference anymore because my electric toothbrush does such a good job.

are you putting alot of pressure on it, you get use to it after a few uses. i felt wierd after using sonic for the ifrst time, but after a few uses your gums and teeth desensitizes to it. unless you are somehow trying to brush your gums.

I barely notice the difference between my hygienist and my manual toothbrush
