Triumph Smartguide 9900 - Reviews

Here is a handfull of reviews by members of the public who have bought the new Oral-B Triumph smartguide 9900.

'The Oral-B Triumph smartguide 9900 consists of two main parts, the brush handle with brush head and the wireless SmartGuide unit. The handle communicates with the SmartGuide to relay information on which of four pre-programmed brush actions you're using, how much time has elapsed since you started and which area of your mouth you should be cleaning. It also gives you a visual (but not audible) warning if you're brushing too hard and will advise you when each brush head needs replacing. Two brushes are included in the package, one a FlossAction for everyday use, and the other a ProBright for occasional polishing; inserting one of them into the handle will automatically select the appropriate brush action, which is then displayed on the SmartGuide unit.

Electric toothbrushes do take some getting used to if you've only ever had manual brushes but once you get into a routine the whole experience does leave your teeth feeling cleaner and with less chance of causing damage to your gums than a conventional brush. The brush gives around an hour of total use from a 12 hour charge and the whole thing (handle as well) is waterproof, which makes cleaning after use much easier than older brushes - you just run it under a tap and wipe it dry on a towel. You also get a travel case included so can take the brush with you on holiday. I would add that the handle is a little heavy and somewhat ungainly in the hand at first, whilst the placing of the buttons makes them a bit easy to press in the middle of a clean, so changing the action just when you don't want it.

The SmartGuide itself is a nice inclusion that does look good and gives some useful information, although if I'm brutally honest it's by no means an indispensable addition. It isn't illuminated, which could be an annoyance if you have a poorly lit bathroom, and it can be a bit of a pain to keep it in view when brushing so I find myself not looking at it which kind of defeats the purpose of having it. The handle vibrates slightly at given intervals while you brush to advise you on timing and I tend to use this rather than the timer shown on the SmartGuide.

Like all Oral B electric toothbrushes, this one cleans well and should last a long time of use. The SmartGuide is a nice but not essential inclusion and replacement brush heads are pretty expensive, but you do seem to get quite a lot for your money with this package. If you like electric toothbrushes then you'll really like this one; if you've yet to try one but the price is putting you off then maybe consider going for a cheaper oral B brush or the Triumph without the SmartGuide as I doubt you'd miss it too much, but saying that I really think the Oral-b triumph 9900 is a great electric toothbrush.

Firstly, you must use this brush very differently to a manual toothbrush. Think floor polisher and not vacuum cleaner. Move slowly and deliberately over each tooth. Make sure you get the brsitles between the tooth and gums. Also change the heads frequently, I find mine last as little as 3 weeks before losing optimum effectiveness. If the bristles are buckled or bent, then they're not working nearly as well as they should.

So why is it the perfect brush? Well a small round head can get to all parts of the mouth. Both the Cochrane Review and Bandolier (both hugely respected independent UK research organisations) have checked multiple studies and found ONLY a rotating oscillating brush is significantly better than a manual toothbrush - i.e. a brush like this.

Also, these brushes have bristles that are longer in just the right parts to clean between gums and have sensors to stop you overloading any part of your mouth. '

Reviews of the new oral-b triumph 9900

I can't stop smiling with this toothbrush!
I bought this toothbrush after my previous Phillips Sonicare started to lose its battery charge. I thought that was a good toothbrush until I started using this one; I can honestly say this blows the Sonicare brush out of the water.

Firstly you can feel the difference with your tongue. Each tooth is easily cleaned, probably because the heads are smaller and can get round the edges better. I find myself cleaning longer than the recommended 2 minutes as I want that 'dentist' clean each time.

The floss action head is truly remarkable. The first time I used the brush it actually broke away the build up of tarter found at the back of my bottom teeth. Previously the dentist would have to remove this.

The polishing head seems to be producing good results as well. The 28 day guarantee of whiter teeth has definitely worked - I felt they were whiter after just a few days of use, especially around the eye teeth which seemed yellower than the others.

The smartguide aid is a bit gimmicky though and not necessary, although it's been handy to have a clock in the bathroom i've never used it to check how long i've been brushing for. I can imagine it being a good tool for younger kids as it smiles once you've cleaned for 2 minutes.

Whilst it is expensive for a toothbrush I'd defintely get this model again.

'The cheaper Oral-Bs: Vitality Sensitive Clean, Pro Care 5000, Pro Care 7000, Pro Care 8500 - all feature the same basic round head and simple bristles that are tried and tested. Just make sure you get one of these for your teeth!'

'I have had a Braun Oral B electric toothbrush for years, and loved it dearly until it disintegrated the other day. '

'I had read so many good reviews about the Triumph smartguide 9900, so I invested, and at this price its an investment!, in a new one. I am blown away. First of all the design is very attractive.
Secondly, its nice to see how much charge it has in it, I go away a lot, so its good to know if you have to charge it before setting off for a few days.
Then there is the brushing guide. I had put this down to being a gimmick, but its very useful. It shows whether you are brushing too hard, reminds you when to change brush heads etc.
Then there are the two supplied brush heads, my teeth have never been so clean. Very clean.
So if you want an advanced toothbruch that gets your teeth clean.
Has programmes to massage gums etc.
Warns you if you brush too hard.
Warns you if it needs charging.
Warns you when you need a new head.
And looks pleasing to the eye, then this is the one for you.'

'BEST BUY! The Best Buy Oral-b triumph 9900 is an expensive brush breaking the £100 price mark, but is also the best scoring brush on test by some margin.It offers good cleaning performance, is extremely easy to use and has excellent battery life.'

Just Brilliant
Having always used a manual toothbrush I decided to switch to an electric toothbrush after a friend had recommended it to me.

And I'm really pleased I did, this was money well worth spent! My teeth have never felt so clean!

All the other reviews on here have said it all for me so I'm not going to go into any more detail!

Enough said.. What are you waiting for?
