When Smile Brilliant reached out to me to test out their cariPRO Ultrasonic Electic Toothbrush, I was very excited. Within this past year, I had already switched to a standard electric toothbrush from Oral B that I had gotten off Amazon. The reason being, I care a lot about the health of my teeth and gums, and ensuring they are white. I have a huge pet peeve with teeth, in both myself and others (i.e. a persons smile is the first thing I notice about them). However, at the end of the day after work, the gym, and cooking dinner when I am exhausted, I came to the realization I had been neglecting my teeth i.e. not always flossing or not brushing long enough. I switched to the electric toothbrush to ensure I was brushing my teeth more thoroughly and improve the overall health and look of my teeth. There was nothing wrong per-say with my current electric toothbrush, but it was the only one I had ever tried so was very excited to test out another for comparison, as I am always looking to try to products that will improve my health as well as the look and feel of my teeth.

I decided to test out the new toothbrush for a full week to get a true picture of the differences between the two electric toothbrushes and see if there were any notable differences to my teeth and gums. My smile brilliant package came with the following:

After 7 full days of use, I came to the conclusion that I LOVED this toothbrush, and it was a definite improvement over my previous electric toothbrush, and here’s why:

1. There are 5 different settings. The first thing I loved about this toothbrush is the fact that there are 5 different settings: Clean, White, Massage, Gum Care, and Sensitive. These different settings actually cause the bristles of the brush to move in different ways for a different effect, which was something my previous electric toothbrush was definitely lacking. In fact, in comparison with a lot of these settings, my previous electric toothbrush was definitely a bit rough, which actually may not be the best for your teeth. I noticed that I really liked the “sensitive” setting because it wasn’t as rough on my teeth but still made them feel extremely clean when I was done with it.
2. It comes with a timer. This was so key for me. One of the biggest struggles for me when brushing my teeth is knowing how long you should actually spend brushing, and previously I definitely leaned toward the quick side. Unlike my previous electric toothbrush, the CariPRO has an automatic timer within each mode to ensure you are brushing your teeth for two minutes and 30 seconds exactly each time you use it, and that you cover each area of your mouth adequately. For each section of your mouth (there is a guidebook that will show the different quadrants to you), the bristles will vibrate for 30 seconds, and then will pause action for a moment so you know to move the brush to a different part of your mouth for an even clean. Now I know I am always brushing my teeth for the right amount of time!
3. My teeth felt cleaner, without any irritation. Overall, after using the CariPRO for 5 days, my teeth felt clean, looked white, and my gums felt healthy. In comparison with my previous electric toothbrush, this one felt less harsh on my teeth and gums when brushing, was easier to use (i.e. ensuring I was brushing my teeth for the correct amount of time), but got the job done just as well if not better and I would 100% recommend anyone to make the switch!
