Features

  • Helps you break down plaque build-up

    Brushing your teeth is a breeze, with high-quality bristles that remove plaque and improve gum health. In fact, it’s up to 100% better than a manual toothbrush.

  • Gentle on sensitive areas, orthodontics & dental work

    The best electric toothbrush for braces. The Sonicare ProtectiveClean 5100 can also be used on fillings, crowns, veneers and other sensitive orthodontics.

  • Choose from 3 modes

    Clean mode is standard for superior cleaning. White is the ideal mode for removing surface stains. And Gum Care mode adds an extra minute of reduced-power brushing, so you can gently massage your gums.

  • Lets you know if you’re pressing too hard

    Brushing too hard can damage your teeth and gums. To prevent this, your Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean emits a gentle pulsing sound to remind you to ease off on the pressure.

  • The Sonicare 5100 tells you when to switch brush heads

    Sometimes you can forget the last time you replaced your brush head. With its unique BrushSync technology, the head and base will sync-up to remind you when the time comes – with a simple short beep and handle light.

    Great toothbrush

    I love this toothbrush it makes me excited for brushing. A charge on it lasts a pretty long time too. One of the best investments I’ve made. I tend to fill up the brush head all the way with toothpaste too and since these brush heads are smaller than a manual toothbrush, it makes me save on toothpaste. This one is worth every penny. It tells you when to switch quadrants and it tells you when you’re putting too much pressure as well.

    I have been missing out!!!

    I was told after a cleaning that I needed to invest in an electric toothbrush and the universe gravitated me to this one and I have never been happier about brushing my teeth. It tells me when to change sides or more like quarters and also lets me know when I'm pushing down too hard. I would recommend this Philips Sonicare to friends and family and I will never go back to a regular toothbrush.

    Brush experience

    I have very sensitive teeth and very often my teeth bleed because how hard I brush. My dentist recommended this brush to stop me to get more damage in my teeth. I buy and have been a game changer. I love my brush, my teeth are beautiful and my friends love my smile. Don’t have any more bleeding problems or damage. I am happy with this product and recommend. I will said if you want a beautiful smile start with this brush. Below my picture of my brush an my smile.
