[edit]This is why I NEVER trust wiki articles. If you actually read the study in the "clinical research" section most of them is crap.
take reference 7.
The experiment is fundamentally flawed. The Oral B brush is clearly designed NOT to be effective if used in a traditional brushing back-and forth motion (ie.bass method) because of it's brush head shape, but to be with rotational-oscillation and hovering over each surface of the teeth. That's why when used in the off mode, it produced extremely low plaque removal scores, and when turned on, it worked as it was designed to, producing a statistically significant change. On the other hand, since the sonicare brush head is so similar to traditional brush head, the small n used in this study would not have the power to produce a statistically different result even if there were one. this article is clearly just a ploy by Proctor and Gamble, who owns Oral B, to attack sonicare.
I'm going to delete that sentence cause the research is ridiculously flawed. - student DDS 174.6.129.27 (talk) 22:34, 25 February 2012 (UTC)

And here, folks, we see Philips and Braun marketing fighting each other in their natural habitat. Crickey! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.119.28.72 (talk) 23:53, 26 February 2016 (UTC)
Urban Roses reverts
[edit]Many users to cite the expense of brush heads. Before reverting my edits, Urban rose, please give a reason for the reverts. Otherwise you look like a wiki-nanny. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.140.22.70 (talk) 20:01, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
Model Analysis
[edit]I am hoping we can create an analysis of the various models of Sonicare, I mean Norelco Sonicare, toothbrushes as I would find this comparison helpful. I believe that while there are a variety of models offered the major difference is in the brushing program--the computer controlled brushing pattern. --TMH (talk) 19:20, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
Name/Sonic component
[edit]The article should explain what is "sonic" about the toothbrush. DavidFarmbrough (talk) 01:04, 30 July 2015 (UTC)
There does not appear to be any "sonic" component, merely mechanical brush action. I suppose it's just a catchy name, like "Wonder Bread".Lynxx2 (talk) 03:12, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
Model List
[edit]If you look at just about any kind of computer component you will have an endless historical list. This would be helpful to those that are trying to figure out a number of things including whether they are looking at a counterfeit product etc. 108.223.5.124 (talk) 03:34, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
- Since Wikipedia is not a directory, such a list would only be appropriate for this article if independent reliable sources cover each of these models individually. — Newslinger talk 10:20, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
