Oral-B Pro 6000 review

Cleaning mode

Oral-B Pro 6000 (Check on Amazon.com) achieves an excellent rating for its cleaning mode because it is a toothbrush that offers deep, versatile, and adaptable oral hygiene solutions to the most different needs.

First of all this model is equipped with a cleaning system with 3D technology: it performs a triple movement that rotates, pulses and swings to remove plaque much more effectively than traditional hand toothbrushes and even electric toothbrushes that simply rotate and swing.

In addition, there are 6 different cleaning programs that correspond to specific brushing modes:

• Daily cleaning: standard brushing of 2 minutes total
• Whitening: specific to removing stains and make teeth less opaque
• SmartGuide: gives personalized advice on oral hygiene through a Bluetooth connection to the smartphone
• Gum care: for sensitive gums or people suffering from gingivitis
• Sensitive: designed to gently brush sensitive teeth
• Deep clean: standard program but with a duration of 3 minutes for a more deep cleaning

Thus the Oral-B Pro 6000 can meet any need and is a versatile and valid toothbrush for use by different people with specific needs.

Functions

The Oral-B Pro 6000 is equipped with all the functions available for an electric toothbrush.

First, the pressure sensor, which consists of a bright LED that turns red to alert you if you are applying excessive pressure during brushing, thus risking damaging gums and teeth and causing rapid wear of the bristles and therefore a less effective cleaning.

There is also a timer function; the toothbrush emits a vibration that signals when 2 minutes have elapsed, which is the recommended brushing time by the dentists.

The Oral-B Pro 6000 also features intelligent Bluetooth 4.0 technology that allows the device to connect to the smartphone (after downloading the dedicated Oral-B app) and customize the method of brushing, receive oral hygiene advice and the possibility to record daily cleaning progress.

As for compatibility with other heads, this model allows the use of almost all Oral-B heads, with the exception of the Pulsonic and Cross Action Power ones.

Power supply

This model features an internal battery with a charging base and this translates into a more powerful toothbrush with longer durability and richer functions, as this kind of power supply is capable of sustaining high performance. The type of battery is Ni-MH and it has an excellent autonomy of 10 days.

This extended battery life is something that few models can boast of on the market, as the average battery life for an electric toothbrush is about 5-7 days.

Design

The Oral-B Pro 6000 makes a fair compromise between small dimensions and ease of use.

The charging base also includes a head compartment that can hold up to 4 spare parts, an excellent solution for every bathroom countertop.

Accessories

This model includes a very rich accessory kit. In addition to the charging base we mentioned above, the Oral-B Pro 6000 is equipped with a sturdy travel case for the toothbrush handle and a spare head, convenient to carry with you in your suitcase, bag or maybe in the gym.

As for the different heads, this model includes four of them: Precision Clean, Sensitive, 3D White and Floss Action, and is also compatible with other types.

These different heads pursue the same purposes of the different cleaning programs but they do so through the different designs of their bristles: combining the action of a specific program with the head part designed for it increases their effectiveness.

Last but not least this toothbrush comes equipped with the SmartGuide, a small wireless display that can also be hung onto the mirror or the wall of your bathroom, and you can use to record your daily cleaning progress, to receive information on how much time you spend on each dental arch, along with messages of encouragement to keep up the good work.

Final Assessment

We consider the Oral-B Pro 6000 one of the best electric toothbrushes ever. This model deserves the title thanks to its excellent long-lasting power supply system and its completeness in terms of accessories and functions, compatibility with numerous heads and the pressure sensor. Its wealth of cleaning programs make this toothbrush usable by almost anyone, with any particular need for oral hygiene. For all the reasons mentioned above, we consider the Oral-B Pro 6000 the perfect choice for those who are willing to spend a higher than average price (Check on Amazon.com) in order to invest into a versatile and quality product, that will last for long and that could be a good option even for a whole family.
