The Braun Oral-B TriZone 5000 with SmartGuide is the top model of the electric toothbrushes from the current product catalog of the renowned manufacturer ORAL-B. Just like its predecessor, the Oral-B Triumph 5000, the unit operates with 40,000 pulsations and 8,800 lateral movements per minute and features five individual cleaning modes (Clean, Sensitive, lightening, massage, deep cleansing). Also unchanged from the previous model is the SmartGuide, an external display, which provides information on cleaning time, cleaning mode and plaster dentition quadrants. Unfortunately, there is a display that prompts the user to change a worn brush head. The scope of supply is - as usual - very extensive, including three piece TRIZONE brush heads, a Interspace brush head for cleaning interdental spaces, travel case, SmartGuide and charging station.. Unfortunately, the charger is re-exported only 220/240 volt version, which makes its employment z. B. in the United States virtually impossible.
A real innovation is only the individual to Oral-B "Trizone" bust head, which is to achieve very good compared to the previous round bust heads the interdental spaces. In daily use, this new brush head leaves a mixed impression, because I can not confirm a better cleaning of the interdental spaces and I consider the enormous size of the head for quite unpleasant. Especially when cleaning the molars of the large brush head trigger me regularly a nausea from which I have never experienced when using the significantly smaller, round brush heads.
The cleaning result is absolutely convincing with the new Trizone brush head, but I can not see any improvement over the conventional bust heads. Unfortunately ORAL-B such. B. has missed the opportunity to carry out necessary improvements in the model update, a quieter and less vibrating handpiece, a fast charging battery or a charger for worldwide use.
