Is the AquaSonic a Good Toothbrush? | Dental Hygienist Reviews!

[@matrox]

I got one as a gift and just started using it. Cleans much better than my Oral B. This one definately removes plaque and feels like a pro dental cleaning.

[@Maat213]

I just bought one today, charging it now. It got good reviews on Amazon and I’m very pleased to have seen this video as well. Tomorrow my water pik should be here, time to take my oral care more seriously.

[@donnadoriand7324]

I bet you're very happy with both.

[@hoppysport2872]

Superb review, presentation and production. I bought this on a Best Buy Deal of the Day for $34.99. It came with 9 Dupont brush heads and 2 Pro-Flex brush heads. Upon getting it home I saw your video and immediately bought a second one before the Best Buy Deal was over. The reason that I bought the second was because the brush heads are $10.99 for 2, or $5.50 per head. The 11 brush heads the Aquasonic reviewed come out to $3.19 per brush head. I've used Sonicare products for 25 years and they're great. However, their brush heads run about $10 each. And when the rechargeable battery dies, you have to buy a new Sonicare, unless you want to do this: Open and dismantle handle De-solder old battery Replace battery Solder in new battery Reassemble handle Good luck with that. Now I have 5½ years of quality brush heads and two Aquasonic toothbrushes for $70. From my short experience with the Aquasonic Black, it's an ultra high-quality ultrasonic toothbrush...and it look great!

[@justinpaul8160]

That's a heck of good deal. I bought mine last week for $36 with 6 heads

[@claudedavis3194]

Totally agree with your assessment of this brush. My hygienist noticed the improvement after using it per her recommendations at the next visit afterwards

[@jaym5938]

If it's like the 'Duo' it lacks a charge indicator that 'goes out' when charged. You have no idea if it's fully charged or not and will likely leave it on the charger too long. Such a standard feature that's missing.....why???

[@DentistrywithDerik]

I’m not associated with the company. However, Amazon is pretty good with returns if you got a bad one 🤓

[@wonderfull8-n1t]

I watched several videos to see how it work. When the shape is not round, how it rotate? Unfortunately most of the amazon videos are just silly giving zero information what customer want.

[@DentistrywithDerik]

It does not rotate. It vibrates with approximately 40k vibrations per minute.

[@-datnerd-3125]

Is this better for gum health or Oral-B smart, pro or genius models?

[@DentistrywithDerik]

If you want an Oral-B, get their IO series-that is their only sonic brush. The Aquasonic tends to be much more effective cost-wise.

[@danielkuntz01]

I received one as a present...the dual set...i used them for about a year, they stopped working...I can press the start button and I hear/feel a quick vibration...as if it's trying to start...but it doesn't...I can't find any help in solving this issue... I'm wondering if other users have discovered the same problem...

[@DentistrywithDerik]

As with any device, there will occasionally be defective ones. You can always contact the manufacturer, but to be honest, they are so inexpensive on Amazon, ordering a new one may be the easiest solution.

[@blueyedmedic911]

I got mine 2 days ago. Best electric toothbrush I have ever had. This thing is the bomb. I’m confused as the term you used wireless charger. The charger actually plugged into the wall. So I’m confused with that terminology. Can you answer please?

[@DentistrywithDerik]

Sorry for the confusion, it’s to differentiate it from older products that actually plug into the socket.

[@pearrrrrr8863]

Out of the aqua sonic, oral b pro 1000, and phillips sonicare 4100, which one cleans the best?

[@Psychguy00]

It's really depends on your preference. I have both the aquasonic and the oral B, they both clean about the same. However, the bristles on the aquasonic brush is a bit soft. I personally like orab be brush heads with more stiff or harder bristles but that's just me. Aquasonic is not bad it just depends on how you clean your teeth. If you brush hard and apply pressure than go with sonic or oral B instead of Aquasonic which again is on the softer side. Good luck!

It comes with a charger. There is no need to replace the battery.

[@Dgcamarena]

You should upload more videos

[@TheKeithvidz]

just shot for the dual pack with this and Vibe. Amazon deal at $62.90.

[@rosarah762]

Okay I got this based on reviews and the vibration is SO DAMN INTENSE. Even on soft setting! The toothpaste falls off of it. Is this normal? It’s my first electric toothbrush and it tickles my teeth. I don’t like it. Am I doing it wrong? How do you use it? Do I need a less intense toothbrush or am I just not used to this yet?

[@DentistrywithDerik]

Watch my video on Rotating or Sonic Brush? Which is Better? kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5mxYXVojamDiKs. I show how to use one correctly there. You may be using it wrong.

[@jlmcgrot]

This looks nice, but there are several Philips models that are the same price or less. Even if this is as good (and I assume it is), the risk of the off brands is not being able to find replacement parts, heads, etc…. Nice review.

[@DentistrywithDerik]

@@jlmcgrot it’s very comparable to Sonicare. The one major benefit is it includes 8 replacement heads where Sonicare only gives you one. The heads also tend to be less expensive to order on Amazon.

[@miguelfloriano9039]

Long term is it good ?? I bought a sonictooth brush from Philips broke 3 months into it.

[@DentistrywithDerik]

I’m still using mine after 2 years 🤓

[@miguelfloriano9039]

[@eScorpiónA-801]

How about the Pro version ? Anyone try it? How does it compare?

[@LouRao]

Derik, What is your opinion for Oral-B Series 6 toothbrush? Would the Oral-B remove tartar and plaque better vs Sonic? Thank you.

[@DentistrywithDerik]

Both reduce plaque well. The broader question, that patients need to ask, is whether they can cause damage to areas of recession - I never recommend oscillating toothbrushes for that reason. An oral-b with a pressure sensor is a fine option but they tend to be much more expensive that a sonic brush. I have no reason to recommend expensive, oscillating brushes, when suitable, less expensive, options are available.

[@matrox]

Nope...I have an Oral B and just got this one. This one is better.

[@i-35vagabond56]

Would this be a good replacement of waterpic? I currently use the waterpic and then brush.

[@DentistrywithDerik]

Waterpiks are generally useful for patients with active gum disease, bridges, implants, root canals and braces. They are best uses in combination with a sonic toothbrush but do not necessarily cancel out the need for the other. Checking with your dentist or hygienist is always best.

[@DentistNepal]

Good job bro. Keep it up. You are doing great.

[@DentistrywithDerik]

Thank you!

[@mahnoornadeem9706]

Should I try it ?

[@siripriya5684]

Sir I have gum recession problem and also bleeding I visited doctor but no use can you tell me solution I brush my teeth daily and also do my gum massage provided by the doctor

[@DentistrywithDerik]

I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully the doctor you visited was a qualified dentist. I find the best home-care solution for bleeding gums is thorough water-flossing, twice daily.

What would the best setting for braces be?

[@DentistrywithDerik]

The setting is not as significant as the angle you hold it at: be sure and get it above and below the brackets.

Great info. Thanks.

This vs sonicare 4100?

[@DentistrywithDerik]

The major difference between the two is that the Sonicare 4100 has a pressure sensor for aggressive brushers

[@vanhoot2234]

appreciate this review

[@stanelstowe2689]

Thank you so much

[@calebthomas5411]

I use the oral b right now I need a new toothbrush its dirty and such lol is this actually better than oral B ? I love oral b toothbrush!

[@DentistrywithDerik]

The best toothbrush is the one you’ll use. That said, I generally don’t recommend Oral-b - they can be expensive and rely on oscillating rather than sonic vibrations. Aquasonic is a sensibly priced sonic toothbrush that works well.

[@josephlynn85]

[@thebestforyou4752]

I bought this for my husband as part of a gift because his oral B would no longer hold a charge. He was so over the moon about it after the first use that I thought surely he must just be trying to act over the top about the gift. He still wouldn’t shut up about it months later. We went away for a weekend and I forgot my toothbrush and he suggested I use the extra brush attachment that he has in the case and use it. I threw my oral B out. I have never ever experienced a toothbrush that did a better job that this. My husbands dentist praised him for his flossing when he rarely flosses. My teeth are whiter than they have ever been and I can only compare how clean my teeth get to the cleaning I get at the dentist when I get the good hygienist. I’m blown away. My husband was not exaggerating at all. Now I just have to buy my own. I’m still using his spare brush head. The case comes with two heads and plus you get 6 other spares too so 8 brush heads total. My husband hasn’t charged it since mid February and still going strong. I’m going to chuck my kids oral B’s and get them these. They would be fantastic for brushing braces. The vibrations get in every nook. Bravo!! amzn.to/3PQhhsg

[@DentistrywithDerik]

So glad you had such a great experience and improvement to your oral health! 💙

[@Courtney_Ann_]

My bf just bought me one and after only three uses it looks like I’ve had a deep clean and whitening treatment. I’m super meticulous about my oral hygiene so it was shocking to see that this made such a huge difference ❤ This is much better and it’s different than an electric toothbrush.
