Amazon.com Review
For optimum cleaning performance, electric toothbrush heads should be replaced every six months. This set of two ultracompact replacement brush heads fits all original Sonicare and Advance series handles. Color-coded for individual users, each brush head features a longer neck and shorter rows of extra-soft, rounded bristles in order to better fit smaller mouths, such as children's, and allow precision reach around braces. --Ann Bieri

Good Heads for Small Mouths
Before using Sonicare, I used a regular toothbrush. Unfortunately, it was hard to get the large head of a traditional brush towards the back of my mouth. My dental hygenist noticed heavy plaque back there and planned to use local anesthetic at my next appointment in order to perform a proper prophylaxis. I just was not cleaning my back teeth well enough!

She also recommended I buy the Sonicare toothbrush with the Ultra Compact Brush Heads. With it, I can now easily brush the back of my mouth. At my next appointment, my hygenist decided I no longer needed the anesthetic, because my back teeth required little prophylactic cleaning.

If you brush your teeth twice per day with the Sonicare, you definitely need to replace the brush head after six months, just as the instructions say. They do not wear out the same as a regular toothbrush, but you can tell the difference near the end of the sixth month when your teeth do not feel as clean as they should.

Sonicare Brush Heads
My periodontist insists on this particular model, even if it isn't the latest Sonicare type, because of its compact brush size - he says at regular exams he can tell which brush head his patients are using, this one being the most effective. I'd give this item a five star rating if only it weren't so expensive.

Incredible savings!
I got two heads for just a little over the cost of one from local retailers or on line competition. As for the product itself, I have used the Sonicare system and replacement heads for years with full satisfaction. The system was recommended by my dentist due to plaque build-up and the inability to tackle the problem with normal brushing. Now with the Sonicare system it keeps track of my brushing time and I have cleaner teeth and healthier gums.
