The Pro 2 2000 is supplied with a CrossAction brush head, which effectively disrupts and lifts plaque and debris from the teeth, as confirmed by my plaque disclosing tests. I don’t think the gloss plastics of the Pro 2 are that appealing when you compare them to the matt finish of Sonicare brushes. If you do end up getting the Oral-B Pro 2 2500W, I would recommend purchasing some CrossAction brush heads separately. A softer brushing sensation can be achieved by using the softer bristled Sensi UltraThin brush head. I just got my first ever own proper electric toothbrush, always brushed with manual ones before… I want to take care of my teeth and I forget to brush so the electric toothbrush is more efficient+faster+cleans better+easy to use+good for lazy user.

Fortunately the Oral-B Pro 2 2000 flashes red every time you press too firmly so you can stay on top of it. I just bought PRO 2 2000 White version and noticed it auto turns off after about 4 minutes 30 seconds. Pressing too hard with an electric toothbrush is fairly easy to do (I make this mistake frequently). The quadpacer 2 minute timer featured on the Oral-B Pro 2 2000 2 is an on handle timer that “buzzes” every 30 seconds to let you know when to change areas of the mouth.Both have visible pressure sensors, but the 3000 has a 360 degree sensor that wraps around the neck of the brush, compared to the rear mounted (approx 180 degree) sensor on the 2000. I originally planned to purchase the Genius 9000 but I didn’t need the big plastic travel case nor the gimmicky plastic smartphone holder. At , the Oral-B Pro 2 2500 Electric Toothbrush is in the mid range of the Oral B electric toothbrush line up. The grip on the rear of the handle comes in the form of lots of dimples compared to the ridges on the 2000. Make sure you learn how to brush your teeth properly — you don’t use an electric brush in the same way you do a manual.

The 2 year warranty on all these electric toothbrushes can be extended to 3 years if you register online. In the box with the 9000 comes a smartphone holder, with a suction cup, much like you might have in a car. The Genius X does command a premium for this technological upgrade and you get a little less in the box. The Oral-B Pro 2000, 3000 and 2500 all will last on average 28 minutes which is a weeks worth of usage cleaning twice a day for two minutes. Interestingly, despite the similar design, the Smart 6 is actually part of a range of brushes that includes the Smart 4 and 5 that sit below the Genius range.Two of the more cost effective models within the Oral-B range of electric toothbrushes, these two are among the most popular models available on the market today and either serve the vast majority of users very well. It does too come with a premium travel case, similar to that of the Genius X, which allows the brush to be charged whilst inside. This electric toothbrush is very easy to carry around on your travels and will not take up too much luggage room.

The battery will last for around 56 minutes which is 2 weeks of cleaning twice a day for 2 minutes for 1 person. Although it shares almost all the same components as the Oral-B Pro 2000, it has a new improved lithium-ion battery which doubles the battery life to a whopping 2 weeks. By model numbers you mean the model numbers for the handles, such as D29, D36, D700, D701, D20 etc rather than Pro 2 2000, Genius X, etc? The Pro 2 2000 has raised ridges on the back of the handle compared to the dimpled texture on the Pro 1000. I will be the first to tell you that Oral-B does appear to make their range of products more confusing than they perhaps need to be.Our testing has confirmed that the 9000 offers 12 days of usage time compared to the 18 days on the Smart 6. However for people with sensitive teeth, the Oral-B Pro 2 2000 does not have a sensitive mode so would not recommend it for sensitive teeth. You can use the Oral-B Pro 2 2000 in the shower although it is best to brush in front of a mirror and concentrate on brushing. The Oral-B Pro 2 2000 comes with a visible pressure sensor on the back of the electric toothbrush handle. With either you have to power the brush on to change mode, but the Genius will remember the cleaning mode and start on this next time it is powered on, the 5000 does not.
