Cleaning modes:
When Oral-B Pro 7000 you can choose between 6 different cleaning modes App by pressing a button on the toothbrush or the Oral-B:
- Cleaning mode: This mode is intended for daily use, 2 minutes brushing time for the standard cleaning. A 30-second cleaning of teeth and gums is provided per jaw quadrant. For a quick, regular brushing (perhaps even in between) is suitable this mode in any case. Personally, I have the two minutes brushing time for thorough morning and evening tooth cleaning but too little, so I relied often on the deep cleaning mode (there are at least 3 minutes) or normal cleaning mode by the course twice (mandible 2 Minutes, maxilla 2 minutes).
- Deep cleaning mode: When deep cleaning each jaw quadrant should be cleaned for 45 seconds, which corresponds to a total brushing time of 3 minutes. Simply by longer brushing time better cleaning results than the simple cleaning mode. The deep cleaning mode is the most widely used mode for me. The cleaning duration of 45 seconds per jaw quadrant I find perfect to extensively and thoroughly clean both the interior and exterior sides of the teeth and the chewing surfaces.
- Sensitive Mode: When Sensitive mode, the speed of the toothbrush is reduced as opposed to simply cleaning mode. It is suitable for gentle cleaning of sensitive and inflamed in the mouth. Especially if you have sensitive teeth or dental necks, the Sensitive mode is very pleasant, because especially in combination with the Sensitive brush hardness degree of cleaning is significantly reduced. It feels more like a massage of the teeth and gums.
- Lighten mode: In this mode, the speed of the toothbrush and removed by gradually the superficial tooth discoloration varies. Thus, the teeth are naturally lightened and polished. So far I have the Lighten mode used only a few times already thrilled (in combination with the 3D White brush head), but I am. I do not know to which classification the speed of the toothbrush is changed or to be recognized as places with stronger discoloration and accordingly cleaned more, but I think it works perfectly. After using the Lighten mode I actually feel that the gray or yellow veil that has covered the teeth over time by daily tea consumption has improved. But probably not only through this mode, but the now regular dental care with the new Oral-B PRO 7000, the teeth are thoroughly cleaned as much with my old electric toothbrush and suddenly appear in a new light! I hope that I alone by using the lightening mode and without chemical bleaching create a few more steps lightening over time.
- Massage mode: stimulates the massage mode and gently massages the gums. The massage mode is very pleasant, because the gums with rhythmic circular movements of the brush head is gently massaged. From my perspective, this cleaning mode is recommended but rather a complement to another mode and not for the sole brushing.
- Tongue cleaning mode: In this mode, the tongue is cleaned thoroughly and gently, so bad breath can be prevented. In the first test I found the tongue cleaning mode as something unpleasant because the brush has extremely tickled on the tongue. After the first 20 seconds you have to but somewhat accustomed. Personally, I find it difficult, however, every time, just to let lie in the mouth, the tongue and not to move, so that you can gently underline back and forth with the toothbrush. Whether really bad breath can be prevented by a tongue cleaning, I sadly can not say, because I had never before to fight with. I have, however, has often read that the this can be counteracted.
Brush heads:
The Oral-B Pro 7000 is compatible with all oscillating-rotating brush heads by Oral-B. In the test package 4 different brush heads were included (2x Cross Action, 1x deep cleansing, 1x Sensitive, 1x 3D White), which should be applied depending on the selected cleaning mode:
- According to the Oral-B Cross Action bristles of the PRO-series are the latest standard of the manufacturer. The bristles are arranged at a 16 ° angle and allow, together with the small brush head, that each tooth can be enclosed individually in the purification. The cross action brush head really does a great job! Unlike conventional brushes with straight bristles you really feel that the individual tooth is perfectly enclosed and thus cleaned thoroughly at every point in this variant. The bristles are not too hard and feel yourself comfortable on gums to; they are reversed but not too soft, so you can still exert the necessary pressure on the teeth.
- The brush head for deep cleansing contains patented yellow Micropulse bristles that reach deep into the interdental spaces and thus ensure a thorough cleaning and plaque removal. They are modeled on the flossing, these however do not replace. The brush head for deep cleansing is my favorite brush. Maybe it is because I generally like to use the deep cleaning mode, because it sometimes requires a sensationally clean feeling leaves by this brush in your mouth. The Micropulse bristles are indeed significantly harder than the CrossAction bristles, and especially near the gums you can tell the difference clear. This hardness is but probably necessary in order to reach the interdental spaces and to clean them thoroughly. After brushing with the brush it just feels fantastic to the teeth to move your tongue along. My teeth have become their own brushing never been so clean and smooth felt like after deep cleaning mode with the deep cleaning brush. A similar feeling I had only after a professional tooth cleaning.
- The soft bristles of the Sensitive brush allow a gentle cleaning for sensitive teeth. The bristles of the brush head are extremely sensitive-soft and pliable, so that you can gently eg in Sensitiv- or massage mode brush your teeth or can massage the gums. Personally, I'll only use addition to other brush and cleaning modes, because they me be soft and gentle for the sole brushing this brush.
- The 3D White brush head includes in the middle of the brush head a patented and inspired by dentists use polishing that removes discoloration of the tooth surface and ensures a natural whitening of teeth. Also from the 3D White brush I'm thrilled. Although the polishing use something squeaks on the teeth, but feels pleasantly soft, combined with the bristles of each tooth is perfectly enclosed, cleaned gently yet polished. After the first application was clear that surface stains could be removed. I'm going to brush this in the future in any case regularly use (2-3 times a week) and I hope that the teeth are gradually re-white. Quite apart from the cost, I would like my teeth namely expect no chemical whitening, but I would still appreciate sparkling white teeth very!
Practically the box supplied, the different brush heads can be sorted into the 4's. So these are not individually in cabinet around, they have been ready immediately next to the toothbrush and can as needed Select the appropriate brush head and fit.
All brush heads are equipped with special indicator bristles that fade with time. Once a fading can be seen up to the middle, the brush head should be replaced. This invention seems to be very helpful, because I usually do not know how long I've been using my brush. So you will be automatically reminded of the timely exchange. A good invention!
Design and handling:
When for me-product test I have been allocated in 7000 knows the Oral-B PRO. At first I was a little disappointed by the color, because I would have liked the black. Meanwhile, I'm with the white but very happy, because they as a whole, ie interacts with the brush, looks good and visually appealing. Black has also white brush what the overall picture is somewhat annoying and can not appear uniform.
The toothbrush fits comfortably in your hand and the buttons quickly respond to the touch of a button. It is advisable to start the toothbrush only if you have the brush head already in the mouth, otherwise you possibly due to the high number organized a toothpaste-battle in the bathroom of rotations per minute. But even if you have the brush already in your mouth and if necessary can no longer focus on the key, so you can use this very well blind with your thumb and set the respective cleaning mode.
Cleaning performance:
From the cleaning performance of the Oral-B PRO 7000 I am absolutely convinced and enthusiastic hellauf. The teeth feel not only directly after brushing on extremely smooth and clean. Rather, this effect usually lasts all day, while I after a meal had been earlier the feeling that once again a lot of plaque formed. I like to brush my teeth with the deep cleaning brush in deep cleaning mode or the 3D White brush-on whitening mode, since I am of the opinion that in this case the best cleaning result is achieved. The other brush modes and complete dental care optimally and be used by me mostly complementary.
Visual triple Pressure sensor:
By Pressure sensor is displayed during brushing with a flash of the toothbrush that is exerted too much pressure on the teeth. At the same time stops the pulsation and the toothbrush automatically switches to Sensitive mode.
Since I've never cleaned with a Pressure sensor teeth, this experience was extremely helpful, to ever have a clue whether one is too strong or too weak imprints. I have found in me that still room for improvement is to the Pressure sensor reacts and regards the warning light. That basically I cleaned in the past rather than with too little with too much pressure teeth. Thanks to the Pressure sensor I now know what pressure is optimally adapted to the teeth.
Reaction of the gum:
I had relatively frequent problems with the gums (eg, exposed root surfaces, bleeding gums) and have never liked in the past used dental floss or interdental brushes, because with me the interdental spaces are extremely tight, I might clean with brush or floss, but came no more out bin and it has just done getting hurt. Since I use the Oral-B PRO 7000 is used to determine that the gum has become somehow more robust and I am no longer so often and especially not so soon have bleeding gums. I guess that it is because the teeth and interdental spaces are easily cleaned better and no longer as many bacteria can accumulate at the gum line, which makes it vulnerable.
Professional Timer:
The Professional Timer are depending on the selected mode cleaning intervals in a certain length before, which should help to brush the four quadrants evenly and thoroughly. In all modes except the deep cleansing, a 30-second interval and a total brushing time of 2 minutes, are provided per jaw quadrant. In deep cleansing mode, each jaw quadrant is cleaned in a 45-second interval, which corresponds to a total brushing time of 3 minutes.
SmartGuide:
The SmartGuide is an external display that gives feedback on personal grooming behavior in real time. As long as the toothbrush is not used, the SmartGuide remains inactive and only displays the current time. Once you turn on the toothbrush and a 6 cleaning modes sets in motion, and the SmartGuide is activated and the time in which you already brushing teeth, (also see Timer Professional. To) displayed on a timer. In addition to the time the jaw quadrant lead flashing, ie the SmartGuide specifies when to switch from one to the next quadrant of the cleaning. Parallel to vibrate the toothbrush and signaled the change. Usually this is done in 30-second intervals, only in deep cleaning mode the change takes place after 45 seconds. If you have the total brushing time of 2 minutes, reached (all modes except deep cleansing) or 3 minutes (deep cleaning mode), a hue to a laughing smiley face and you will be rewarded with 4 stars. You clean his teeth for longer than the recommended duration of each mode, the smiley grinning wider and it will not add an additional star. The SmartGuide also displays the currently selected cleaning mode by means of a symbol. Practicing while brushing too much pressure on the teeth (see. This also Visual triple Pressure sensor), this is signaled not only on the toothbrush, but also on the SmartGuide, by turns the laughing in an evil-looking Smiley.
Bluetooth technology and communication with Oral-B app:
The Oral-B PRO 7000 features Bluetooth 4.0 technology, which can connect the toothbrush with the smartphone or the Oral-B App and use it to control their individual dental care. On the one hand, the app the data cleaning of the toothbrush and visualize received (eg day of brushing, brushing number on that day, brushing time), on the other hand can be programmed using the app the toothbrush and adapt to their own needs. So the cleaning preferences, modes, times, memories (eg on the use of dental floss) can be adjusted, for example in our targeted care. A summary of his own cleaning activities obtained on statistics. Unless you every time brushing the smartphone and the app has at hand, the toothbrush can store up to 20 cleaning sessions and transfers it at the next contact with the Bluetooth phone to the app. In addition to the basic information around brushing you can in the app as a small gimmick also news, weather, and / or tips display for oral hygiene.
The app is very well presented and can be operated intuitively, so I found myself cope after first opening the app quickly. The electric toothbrush Oral-B PRO 7000 has been recognized directly and the connection is established via Bluetooth without any problems.
For individuals who are everywhere anyway hinschleppen her cell phone with or generally have fun at the gimmick with apps, this app is documenting the tooth brushing behavior, certainly useful and of great joy. However, I personally reaches the SmartGuide, which indeed my toothbrush behavior leads me only to the current cleaning session in mind, but does not save multiple activities. In the beginning I let my plaster data show both the SmartGuide as well as via the app. In the long run it's me but too annoying, my cell phone to take every time with the bathroom to turn on Bluetooth before each brushing and start the app.
Battery life:
According to the manufacturer, the battery life on 2x daily brushing is 10 days. Since I sometimes more than 2 times a day and frequently more than 2 minutes per flush-through brush your teeth, the Oral-B PRO never actually 10 days power holds 7000 with me. The longest time I could use without recharging, were 7 days. However, given my personal stress this battery performance is very neat and absolutely satisfactory.
Compared to the previous toothbrush:
Before I got to test the 7000 Oral-B PRO, I have the entry-level model from Oral-B, the so-called. People's toothbrush, the Professional Care 500 used. After almost two week test of the Oral-B PRO 7000 I have to say there are worlds between. While I could just use a clean mode before, I can now select between 6 cleaning modes. A crucial role in the cleaning power play certainly the brush. Brushes obtained during the product testing could be used with a different / older electric toothbrush of course, so this is upgraded. However, I must admit that I have become aware of this great brushes only by Oral-B PRO 7000 and have come to realize how much progress we can achieve so in the daily dental care. Significant advantages I see also in the Pressure sensor, the use of the Smart Guides and the battery performance. When Oral-B PRO 7000 the battery lasts several times longer than in my old Professional Care 500, which I invite you after each brushing had for some time, since it would otherwise have happened, that they hold out no second cleaning session more.
