Due to candida, I have very sensitive teeth, so much so that there have been days that brushing my teeth hurt just to touch the toothbrush to my teeth.
You would think that would stop me from brushing so hard, but... no, it doesn't.
You can tell I brush hard because I spread the bristles out in my toothbrush. I have always done this. I have tried to stop but I get to brushing away and forget everything I should know about brushing teeth. I just put my muscle into it.
I have brushed so hard that my gums are receding or being brushed away is more like it. My Dentist tells me I am brushing to hard. I know I am, I just can't help it.
You can see my bottom teeth where the skin has been brushed away. Not much I can do about that now, but I can learn to brush less hard to save what I have left.
For 2 weeks now, I have been using the Oral-B Professional Precision 5000 rechargeable Power Toothbrush
Let me tell you how the Oral-B Professional Precision 5000 rechargeable Power Toothbrush has helped me in my daily brushing routine.
1. This toothbrush won't let me press hard on my teeth ~ Pressure Sensor Stops Pulsation
When Brushing Too Hard.
Not only does the toothbrush stop pulsing but the Visual Pressure Indicator Lights Up
When I Brush To Hard.
It is like getting a double whammy for brushing wrong. I really like both these features, for me.. it helps .. A LOT!!
2. This toothbrush is very gentle on my teeth, in fact, It has a Sensitive Mode for Gentle Cleaning. I am liking this toothbrush more and more.
3. My teeth stain easy because I have brushed most of the enamel away. You can't see it in my picture but some places, my teeth are almost see through.

Do you know when you go to your dentist and they clean your teeth how clean and fresh they feel? This is the feeling I get with the Oral-B Professional Precision 5000 Rechargable Power Toothbrush. Only it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg to feel that way.
I just wanted to show you this picture. I think my teeth are whiter than before I started using the Oral-B Professional Precision 5000 Rechargable Power Toothbrush.

That sounds like an awesome toothbrush! I've been wanting a toothbrush like this for a while now, but I had no idea which one to get.
ReplyDeleteMy dad also had the receeding gums and back in the 80s had a gum graft done to fix it. He hasn't had problems since.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great toothbrush!
That does sound like a great toothbrush. We used to have power controlled ones for years, but finally the toothbrush base stopped charging. We got our moneys worth. I hope this toothbrush does continue to work well for your gums.
ReplyDeleteI have short roots because of having appliances in my mouth so long. I never would have thought that would have happened. My mom was annoyed when I told her that. She paid for the appliances in my mouth.
You have good looking teeth.
ReplyDeleteWhat you think is brushing too hard may just be "Getting long in the tooth." Ha. We all get it, even those who don't brush at all. It's like everything "going south." Speaking of South, are you going away this winter?
But seriously ..... the toothbrush sounds like a good one.
Love ya, Manzi
The teeth are a problem to keep healthy...glad you found a good toothbrush...I use one similar to it
ReplyDeleteI think your teeth look whiter too! What a great Christmas gift this would make for my Mother. Thanks so much for the review.
ReplyDeleteI have very sensitive teeth and my toothbrush always ends up looking like yours. I need to get one of these.
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that it Reduces Plaque to Help Prevent Gingivitis. My dentist told me to start brushing better because I have been having bleeding gums.
ReplyDeleteThis does sound like a great toothbrush! My dentist always tells me that any power toothbrush works much better than a manual.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great brush. I love having clean teeth.
ReplyDeleteOh this looks like a great toothbrush. We all have the Oral B Cross Action rechargeable one but this looks so much better.
ReplyDeleteYes, I remember the dentist saying: Looks like you brushed away some gum...
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'm well on my way to receding gums. I need to check into this toothbrush.
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that it has a pressure sensor.
ReplyDeleteI love my oral b plus helps the kids keep their teeth that is when they use them ... ugh
