Oral-B Ortho Care Essentials Electric Toothbrush Head, 1 Interspace Brush and 2 Ortho Brush Heads for Teeth with Braces, Pack of 3, White,package may vary

Product Information

Prior to the release of the CrossAction, this was the most common, standard Oral-B brush. It is not angled like the CrossAction, and it provides a good cleaning that is slightly more gentle than the CrossAction. On its own, the Interspace brush has been touted for doing a nice job on the gum line and between teeth. We would not recommend only using the Interspace brush head, but when combined with a good daily brush like the CrossAction, it will provide some extra cleaning in those hard to reach spaces, especially if you have irregular teeth or gum issues. While Oral-B brushes are known for their smaller round heads that oscillate rather than vibrate, Oral-B has developed some brush heads that look and feel more like a standard brush head.

For the iO there are just two options available: iO Ultimate Clean and iO Gentle Care. Ultimate Clean In mid 2020, Oral-B launched a new line of electric toothbrushes called iO. This includes the iO 7, 8, and 9 series, and for these brushes, they created an entirely new line of brush heads. In our tests, the iO 7 in combination with the Ultimate Clean brush head did a very good job of removing plaque. It was still not as good as a Sonicare brush, but on par with the best standard Oral-B brushes. It also showed more cleaning action in our corncob/coffee ground test, removing more coffee grounds from the corncob than the Genius X with a CrossAction brush head. Gentle Care Our tests were inconclusive as to whether or not this brush cleans between teeth any better than a standard brush head. It did not do as well in the plaque or lab tests as the CrossAction, but it does provide a slightly gentler cleaning action. The Ultimate Clean is their standard brush head which comes with every iO brush. It is comparable to the Cross Action in design and feel. Oral-B really talks up this brush head by showing how wonderful it is using a demonstration where they balance a pearl in the center of the brush head to show that it is steady and stable. However, we are not sure how this makes this good for cleaning your teeth.So if you are looking for a decent cleaning but you want a gentler feel, then we recommend the Sensi Ultra Thin. If you like standard brush heads: Oral-B Trizone In our test, we found this brush head to be less effective than the standard Oral B Sensi Ultra Thin. The bristles are so soft, they failed to remove much plaque at all. And in our side by side egg test, the Gentle Care failed to remove stains from the egg, while the Ultimate Clean did a decent job. With that in mind, we struggle to recommend this brush head for anyone. To complete the plaque reveal test, multiple testers used Oral-B brushes and after brushing, chewed a plaque reveal pill. This pill then showed how much plaque was left on the teeth. By comparing photos after the tests, we could see which brush heads most effectively swept away plaque. We would opt for the CrossAction for our daily clean, but if you want something a little less aggressive, but don’t need the Sensitive brush then this is a good middle option. Oral-B 3D White The CrossAction has angled bristles which seem to be able to clean between teeth better than flat bristles. The softer blue bristles on the outside spread out as you brush cleaning a lot of surface area for the small round head. They also act as indicator bristles to let you know when you need to change your brush head.

The Trizone has a longer shape that is more like a manual brush. So if you are used to this feeling and you like a rectangular brush head, we suggest you give this a try.All system components (e.g., toothbrush handle, charger, power cord, SmartGuide). You do not need to include accessories like the brush heads or refill stand. The 3D White brush head offers standard bristles on the outside with a rubber whitening cup in the middle. The idea is that this is supposed to act like the polishing brush you might see at your dentist’s office. The idea is that this brush has an oval head with standard bristles combined with four yellow, longer rubber bristles that are supposed to reach between the teeth to dislodge food and other particles. However, even in their product description, Oral-B emphasizes that you should still floss after using this brush head, so it is not a replacement for flossing as the name might suggest.
