windcatcher 0 #1 November 16, 2006 Does anyone have one of these? I've got one, but I don't know if I like it yet or not...I can't decide if the "tickling" is worth it. It definitely makes my mouth feel cleaner, which it should after all that swirling and vibrating. No sex jokes please. Mother to the cutest little thing in the world...

NWFlyer 2 #2 November 16, 2006 Keep using it. They take a while to get used to but aftera while you shouldn't even notice the tickling effect. I don't use mine much (I travel too much and it takes up too much room, plus I just forget I have it when I'm home), but my dentist is constantly asking if I use it, so she's a fan."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

Orchid 0 #5 November 16, 2006 I've been using it for some times now, and loving it. I travel quite a bit and can't leave home w/o it. It comes highly recommended by dentists. Keep using it. It really cleans teeth and healthy gum. "Love is doing small things with great love." Lacrosse: Legally beating men with sticks since 1492 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SmilingPhoenix 0 #6 November 16, 2006 My dentist recommended it and I haven't had any issues since I started using it. Plus mine died after two years and I had to go back to a regular toothbrush and my teeth just didn't feel clean no matter how hard I brushed. I'll never go back to the traditional brush again... But I do have to admit that whenever I use it - if someone else is nearby - I get nervous they will think the vibrating sound is something else Because life is an adventure - it may not be the one you planned, but then it wouldn't be an adventure!

Stik 0 #9 November 16, 2006 They are really great. Once you use it for a while the vibes will not bother your teeth anymore. They are the best way to brush your teeth. The Braun version is good too. I bought that one for my girlfriend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newbie 0 #11 November 16, 2006 http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=1418892;search_string=sonicare;#1418892 Been using mine since that post pretty much. I love it. The tickling goes away after a short time, just keep using it. It comes witha 90 day guarantee anyway, so you can send it back within that period. It really is good for getting the below the gumline plague shifted. "Skydiving is a door" Happythoughts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest 1010 #13 November 21, 2006 buy it, use it I was a some-times perio patient til I got mine 10-12 years ago, no problems now ... I've had the same one for these 10+ years, still going strong. Just replace the brush every six months and you're golden! Whenever a niece or nephew turns 18 I always by them a Sonicare if they don't already have one! (hehe okay where's my commercial payment You can have it good, fast, or cheap: pick two. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nathaniel 0 #14 November 21, 2006 If you practice a bit, you can get your mouth to resonate at the frequency of the brush + harmonics with even more practice. You can make it quite loud, I gather it sounds kinda like rubbing the tops of wine glasses with wet fingertips from what people have said to me My advice is to do what your parents did; get a job, sir. The bums will always lose. Do you hear me, Lebowski? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
