Customers are saying

Customers praise the ProtectiveClean 4100 for its exceptional cleaning ability, long-lasting battery life, and ease of use. Many also appreciate its affordable price and the helpful built-in timer. While some found the vibration level somewhat intense and noted a lack of advanced features or multiple cleaning modes compared to higher-priced models, the positive feedback on cleaning effectiveness and battery life outweighs these concerns for most users.

    So if you're coming from a regular toothbrush you are going to notice one thing straight away and thats just how much cleaner your teeth get with one of these. This leaves your teeth feeling extra smooth, like nothing before. Ergonomically this is comfortable to use, doesnt cause and hand pain, and its not difficult to hold. Its really the easiest and cleanest way to brush up. With the added timers it also lets you know just how long to brush meaning your getting it just right, not over or under doing it. Overall a great toothbrush that exceeded expectation

    I like the toothbrush. It is very powerful and gets to clean those spots at the back and in tight corners at the front where I couldn't properly operate with my manual toothbrush. I am looking forward to my next clean at the dentist to see the difference. The battery life is great and I've received over 2 weeks with these first couple of charges. I like the feature of the indication when the 2 minutes for a quadrant are complete and I need to move on to another one.

    Really makes a difference

    I have been skeptical about this kind of toothbrush but I am very happy to have one now. I have been using another rotary type brush and using this I can actually feel a difference in the clean feeling after I brush. I also like the small head which is what dentists recommend to get all the way to the back of your mouth and reach around the back of my molars. The only negative is if you touch the hard plastic part of the brush against your teeth it can be a little startling but that is a one time thing. Great product, feels great in the hand, very convenient.

    Better clean feeling than my last Sonicare gave me

    It's more than just a new brush head, the motor in this brush felt stronger than my previous Sonicare toothbrush, and my mouth felt clean in a more noticeable way. Also, because this toothbrush seemed to break it down into quadrants, rather than 6-zones, it felt like less of a chore to fit in the full two minutes. I do like that it appears there is a time-to-change-the-brush-head indicator, however in the time i have to write this review, I will not be able to verify that it works as advertised.

    I can't say I'm a big fan of this toothbrush. It seems like it can be very good, however my issue is with the replaceable heads. I would have given the review a higher star rating but I just can't at this time. The head that does come with this is just awkward to use. There's not a lot of contact area and it was rather difficult to use and make sure I was hitting all my teeth. Sadly there is only one included and it appears it's their cheapest one. Ideally there should have been at least one other head included or a different head offered initially. In looking at their other versions of the ProtectiveClean line, this is the entry version and range all they way up to the Diamond Luxury line which go for around $250. The biggest drawback of these things are the price, not of the unit itself, but the brushes. Considering a brush head likely get's you 3-6 months of use, $30 for a pack of 2 fuller sized or even the ones this model comes with is quite the expense, if not luxury. I imagine, once I can afford to drop the $30 for another set of replacement brushes I will likely get more use out of this. For now though it's just the tried and true method of brushing my teeth with your run of the mill toothbrush that runs on Hand power.
