Philips Sonicare HX7012 Elite Toothbrush Head - Mini - Double Pack Reviews
Was told about this 'mini head' by my hygenist. Smaller head is easier to move around the mouth and any gaps between teeth. Works better as the sonic energy seems more concentrated in the smaller size head, also the resonant frequency of the smaller mass seems to cause it to vibrate more than the larger head - for example if you just turn the brush on you can actually see how much the head bristles move. I know that a sonic brush by its nature should work by a scrubbing action so fast that you shouldn't be able to see it, what I'm trying to emphasise here is that it actually looks and feels like the mini head works harder. Downside may be that the bristles wear out quicker, maybe change every four months rather than six. Time will tell.
The Philips Sonicare HX7012 Elite Toothbrush Head - Mini is great for getting into all the places that the standard size can not.
Well worth the money.
Have used Sonicare brushes ever since they've been available, and my dentist says my gum problems have melted away ! Great little heads (recommended by my peridontist rather than the larger ones) and a really good price compared with retail outlets.
