Did you know that brush heads become less effective after three months? The replacement reminder tracks how often and how hard you brush, then reminds you to replace your brush head once it's time for a new one. ¹ vs. a manual toothbrush ² based on a study of over 2,600 dental professionals (dentists and hygienists) conducted in the United States, Canada, Japan, China, Korea, Thailand, Germany, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, France, Belgium, Austria, Italy, Spain, Sweden in 2022-2023

Review: This is a well made toothbrush. - I've been using $20-ish cheap knock-off sonic toothbrush. It's been working, but I got curious how Philips or Oral-B products are - they are definitely more expensive, and I've seen many good reviews on them. So here I tried this 4100 today for the first time. Definitely feeling the difference - garden hose vs fire hydrant. Brush head will be smaller then your expectation. This means you need to get busy brushing your entire teeth, but again the brush can reach to the deep area in your mouth = good for through cleaning. There are two levels of power you can control with a button. I am using the highest settings, works good. Timer feature is an added bonus.
Review: Automatic Tooth Brush - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Life-Changing Toothbrush — Deep Clean, Gentle on Gums, Keeps My Mouth Fresh! I’ve been using this Philips Sonicare 4100 Electric Toothbrush for months now, and honestly, it’s one of the best purchases I’ve made for my daily routine. This isn’t just another toothbrush — it’s like having a dentist-level clean in the comfort of my own bathroom! ￼ From the very first brush, I noticed an incredible difference. My teeth feel dramatically cleaner than with any manual toothbrush I’ve used before — it literally gets into the nooks and hard-to-reach spaces between teeth and along the gumline that I always used to miss. That deep-clean feeling stays all day, and I even notice that my mouth feels fresher longer after brushing. ￼ What I Love Most: 🦷 Powerful Sonic Cleaning Technology – This brush uses high-frequency sonic vibrations (up to tens of thousands of strokes per minute). It lifts and breaks up plaque far better than a regular brush ever has, and I can actually feel the difference. ￼ 💆‍♂️ Pressure Sensor Protects My Gums – I tend to brush too hard (guilty!), but this brush gently reminds me when I’m pressing down too much with a subtle vibration indicator. My gums have never felt sore or irritated, even on sensitive mornings. ￼ ⏱ Smart Timer & QuadPacer – It automatically times your full 2-minute brushing session and paces you so you spend the right amount of time in each section of your mouth. Gone are the days of rushing or guessing if I brushed “enough.” ￼ ✨ Two Intensity Settings – You can choose between gentle and stronger cleaning. I usually stick with the higher setting because it feels powerful without being hurtful, but it’s great to have options, especially if you’re new to electric brushes. ￼ 🔋 Long Battery Life – I charge it and then forget about it for days. The battery easily lasts through more than a week of twice-daily use, so no constant charging hassle. Some users even get much more than the advertised battery life. ￼ Gentle Yet Effective: One of the things that sold me on this model is how gentle it feels on my teeth and gums. It cleans deeply, but it never hurts — no scraping or painful pressure. Even after a long day, brushing with this leaves my mouth feeling clean and refreshed without any discomfort. ￼ A Few Things to Know: • There’s only one brushing mode with two intensity levels — so no fancy app or multiple cleaning modes like some higher-end brushes. That said, for everyday oral care, it’s perfectly sufficient and does the job exceptionally well. ￼ • Some people note replacement brush heads are a bit pricier than some competitor brands, but with the BrushSync reminder, you’ll always know when it’s time to swap them. ￼ Final Thoughts: If you want a toothbrush that cleans thoroughly, protects your gums, keeps your mouth fresh, and never hurts, this is absolutely worth it. It’s far superior to any manual brush, very user-friendly, and a great value for what you get. My dentist has even commented on how clean my teeth look at check-ups — and that’s coming from someone who used to dread going! Would definitely recommend this to everyone looking to upgrade their brush — especially if you want something gentle, effective, and easy to use every day. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — I love this toothbrush and will continue using it daily!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why doesn't the new 4100 model have a regular plug ?  why on gods green earth did they cheap out and put a usb plug in there ??**
A: According to the review in WireCutter (Sept 2022), you can contact SonicCare and receive a free plug adapter.  I've just ordered the 4100 on Amazon.  I don't have the serial number yet, because the product doesn't arrive until tomorrow, but SonicCare customer service just told me that they would send the free plug adapter once I provide the model number and serial number to them.  They confirmed there is no charnge.  It will take 7-10 days to receive the plug adapter once I am able to provide them with the serial number.  I'll do all of that after the product arrives tomorrow.

**Q: Does anybody make a single speed electric toothbrush? I'm so tired of cycling through the speeds**
A: Cycling is the most effective way to brush each quadrant sufficiently.

**Q: What is the purpose of having two intensity modes? How do you know when you should use one or the other?**
A: if you have more sensitive teeth and gums you can use the softer mode

**Q: What do the green and yellow lights mean? what about the beeping noise after the 2 minute brush? I thought low battery but is it replacement head?**
A: Hi! When the brush head replacement reminder light of Philips Sonicare Toothbrush HX3681/24 lights up amber, kindly replace your brush head.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not as weak as they say
*by K***K on May 5, 2024*

This is my 1st electric toothbrush. I ordered it over the oral b smart 1500 because it's cheaper and I found more people who swear by it than oral b. Later on, I read comments where people who have this 4100 for 10+ years say that the newer 2021 version has only half the power of the old version. Someone on reddit showed images of the inside of the new and old versions and the new version has a small plastic toy-like motor, while the old version has a big copper-wrapped motor and an old version user said "now I understand why the new version is lighter and less powerful". I was disappointed on the new version and tried to cancel the order but I couldn't. Once it came, I decided to try it and to my surprise, it brushes my teeth way better than my manual soft-bristled and hard-bristled toothbrushes(I use both manual brushes daily compared to my daily usage of the electric toothbrush 4100 C2 head of medium bristles. If you have gum sensitive issue, buy the S sensitive or G2 optimal brush head. If you want hard-bristled, buy W diamondclean brush head). I don't know how good the old version was but this newer version definitely brushes better than any manual toothbrush unfortunately it doesn't not come with a travel case. Update 5/16/2024: I bought the Oral B smart 1500 because it was on sale and I wanted to see how better it is compared to the sonicare. The oral B package looks nicer and bigger than the Sonicare but upon opening the smart 1500 package, I saw hair all over the toothbrush. I did read many customers saying on reddit that their Oral b toothbrush were repackaged, but I can't believe I'm a victim of this nastiness. It also took 2 weeks to reach me from Hawaii and since it says "made in China", I think the seller is located in China. I'll return this and I'll advise you to buy the Sonicare instead of the oral b if you don't want to be cheated receiving a used-repackaged toothbrush. Update 05/22/2024: On 05/17/24, I bought the Oral b smart clean 360 which has exact power as the smart 1500 that I returned but the smart 360 has 5 modes and a button to change the mode while the smart 1500 has 3 modes and no button to switch between the modes. The advantage of the oral b smart clean 360 is that the brush heads cost is cheaper than the Sonicare 4100 and I find it better at whitening my teeth than the Sonicare. That's all the advantages there. The things that I don't like with it are many, so I'm just going to name the most annoying ones: 1) The brush heads are too big compared to the Sonicare(see picture): Putting Oral b brush heads in my mouth is like putting a golf ball in my mouth(my head and mouth are wider than the average US male). 2) The brush heads have holes(see pictures) that trap saliva+toothpaste and creates more noise when the brush handle needle rotates in the presence of the liquid mixture, and moisture will be also trapped easily in the holes(most customers complain about Oral b brush heads design. Oral b corrected the needle issue with the IO version but the IO introduced a shallow hole which now traps moisture in the brush handle). When I'm using the Oral b with no choice but to have my mouth wide-open, it forces my mouth to produce more saliva which gets mixed with the toothpaste and enters the brush head and creates more noise. 3) Rattling noise: The Oral b smart clean 360 isn't as noisy as people say. It's the quality of the noise the problem. It's a very unpleasant rattling noise as if you're hearing an old car engine with broken parts in it. That noise gets worse when liquid enters the brush head holes. 4) The charger is not round like a perfect circle: You must put the Oral b brush handle in a specific position to charge it and if you place it wrong, it'll fall and might break. 5) The Daily Clean mode is rough and combined with the big brush head the experience is bad, but the smart clean 360 has more mode which make it smoother and better than the smart 1500 but not as good as the Sonicare 4100. 6)It has no auto-stop mode: You keep brushing without knowing how long you have been brushing your teeth. To summarize, the oral b non-IO brush heads are cheap but very badly designed for a pleasant toothbrushing. I won't recommend it if you're shorter than 6 foot tall or have a small mouth.
