The cream of the toothbrush crop is 40% off on Amazon today, meaning you can get it for $60.
It’s the Oral-B Pro 5000 Smartseries Power Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush, a rare $10 more than the Oral-B Pro 1000 model, which is already the valedictorian of its price range, according to many professional reviewers across the web.
The ubiquity of electric toothbrushes makes it bizarre to be brushing your teeth the analog way — especially when $50 is a value that quickly pays for itself when you’re not constantly replacing a standard brush. And the Oral-B 5000 has got a lot going for it: an automatic pressure sensor that helps protect its user’s gums, a two-minute timer (the standard expert recommendation for brushing your teeth), and bluetooth connectivity, meaning that you can track your brushing habits if you’re so inclined. So close to replicating the 2000s magic of ToothTunes, yet so far.
It also has the American Dental Association’s stamp approval, with Oral-B claiming that it’s the first electronic toothbrush to earn that distinction. So argue with 4 out of 5 dentists about it.
In particular, Amazon reviewers praise the light handle, the long battery life, and the thorough, rotational arc of the brush. The app itself also received a glowing reception, which may be surprising to some who are dubious about the smartphoneification of everything. But the app shows its user diagrams of the teeth they’re not brushing enough – or brushing too much – even color-coding the coverage you’re getting as you’re using it. It’s an app maybe worth deleting Twitter X for.
