Dental Talk Thursday | Oral B Genius

For this weeks Dental Talk Thursday we are going to be talking about the Oral-B Genius Pro 8000 Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush!

NO - I promise this is NOT sponsored! I honestly just LOVE this toothbrush and I always recommend it to my patients so I wanted to share it with all of you, too!

“See, Adjust, & Know with Position Detection”

The advanced Position Detection technology allows you to SEE where you’re brushing so you can ADJUST your technique and never miss a surface. Yes, it has facial recognition! The built-in 2-minute timer ensures you brush for just the right amount, in each area of your mouth.

“Customizable SmartRing. Personalized Experience.”

The 360º SmartRing can be illuminated with your choice of 12 colors as you brush. It also allows you to SEE feedback from the pressure sensor, brushing timer and Bluetooth connection.

“Intelligent Brush for Real-Time Feedback”

Here’s one of my favorite things about it – I can adjust the Focused Care settings for my patients who have them! Your dental hygienist can do yours too! There is an Oral-B app that you can download on your smartphone which uses Bluetooth technology to get real-time feedback while you clean for improved brushing habits. The Focused Care feature lets you implement your dentist’s/dental hygienist’s recommendations by customizing the brushing plans for key focus areas. The Dental Care Journeys feature allows you to follow a pre-programmed routine that matches your oral hygiene goals. “These journeys include Fresh Breath, Plaque Fighter, Whitening, Gum Health and Ortho Care.” So basically, no matter who you are or what your situation is – there is a setting for you!

“Round Brush Head for a Superior Clean*”

As with many toothbrushes, there are replacement heads for it. These heads are a professionally inspired design that includes a dynamic movement of 3D cleaning which helps the head adapt to your teeth as it oscillates, rotates and pulsates to break up and effectively remove more plaque than a regular manual toothbrush.

“16 Degree Angle Cleans Deep Between Teeth”

The round CrossAction head is specially designed for a tooth-by-tooth clean. Its criss-cross bristles are set at a 16-degree angle to reach deep between teeth to power away up to 100% more plaque for a superior clean vs. a regular manual toothbrush.

“Healthy Gums with Pressure Sensor”

The Triple Pressure Sensor helps protect your gums from over-brushing which can damage enamel over time and cause gum recession. The SmartRing illuminates and pulsations slow, then stop when you brush too hard. In addition, the brush handle can be set to the Sensitive mode.

“Dual Charging & Extra-Long Battery Life”

The Lithium Ion battery and smart travel case were designed to charge both your toothbrush and smartphone using only ONE outlet! This toothbrush can last for up to 12 days between charges!

If you guys would like to see a live video/demo on this please let me know because yes, of course I have one! ;)
