Know you brush the right amount of time with the 2min professional timer. 1 brushing mode: daily clean. Oral-B, the #1 brand used by dentists worldwide. Oral-B.

Above and below the power button are a number of raised grips which your thumb naturally catches on. You will struggle to find a cheaper electric toothbrush than this that offers performance and quality.

The whole app is engineered for the more premium Smart Series brushes, which the 650 is not a part of.​ If you are really keen on logging your toothbrush activities then this has some benefit. It may be more interactive for children, as it does have some nice graphics; but the whole process feels like a bit of a hassle. In my mind, if you are really keen on logging your toothbrush cleans, you are likely going to be opting for a more premium brush. To be honest, this is pretty much the average. For more cleaning time you will need to go bigger, heavier and more expensive and possibly too pay for features you do not want. Take a look at the lower third of the brush find the battery power icon, above which is a small amount of branding, which is barely noticeable, embossed into the rubber. Electric toothbrushes that are clinically proven to be superior to manual toothbrushes, providing benefits in removing more plaque for cleaner teeth and healthier gums. Oral-B electric toothbrushes remove up to 100% more plaque than a regular manual brush, which is why they are recommended by UK dentists and hygienists. Oral-B electric rechargeable toothbrushes (from Pro 600 model upwards) also whiten teeth starting from day one by removing surface stains. Electric toothbrushes are suitable from ages 3+, with specific kids electric toothbrush models available, and are gentle on gums and suitable for sensitive teeth. Electric rechargeable toothbrushes come with replacement toothbrush heads, which should be replaced every three months.

No brush would be complete without a brush head and with the Pro 650 we have on test here is a CrossAction head. A more recent addition to the Oral-B range this head has a series of angled bristles which are designed to effectively remove plaque but also ensure they clean deep between the teeth and provide a good coverage over teeth surfaces. If battery life is an issue the brush can be left constantly charging, technology in it will stop it from taking more power than it needs. The smaller brush head in comparison to most manual brushes, is scientifically engineered to ensure you get the best clean. Being smaller, you are able to easily reach more areas of the mouth. The addition of the 3D technology which rotates, oscillates and pulsates means that the brush head achieves a motion and cleaning pattern that is just not possible when compared to a manual brush. Having used a wide variety of electric toothbrushes I do believe the power and clean offered from the Pro 650 is as good as any of the more premium brushes, it just does not offer the range of cleaning options for those serious about oral hygiene. When you power on the brush with a single press on the power button, you launch straight into the only cleaning option on the brush, the daily clean mode. This lasts for two minutes and at 30 second intervals, you will hear the sound from the brush change as the oscillation of the brush head changes ever so slightly to indicate to change quadrant.The built-in timer in this brush is, in my opinion, a highly underrated feature. It is all too easy to think we have been brushing for longer than we have, as many of us get bored when completing a mundane task like cleaning the teeth. This built-in timer makes it simple. There is no excuse not to achieve the full 2 minutes. Unlike the slightly more premium Pro 2 2000 the Pro 650 does not have a pressure sensor built into this and this is another area that keeps the cost down. A pressure sensor illuminates when too much force is applied to the teeth through the brush. If you feel you would like such a feature then you must take a step up to the Pro 2 2000. Another little feature which gives this brush a bit of an edge is the ‘Sound Connectivity’ feature.

However, female readers do not be put off by the colour as this is a lovely slim and comfortable brush when in the hand. On the very bottom of the brush is a recess into which the charging stations prong will sit into to transfer power without a physical connection to the brush and in turn keeps the brush stable on the stand.Oral-B iO™ with revolutionary iO™ technology is the latest Oral-B electric toothbrush.
