What's the difference between this "Sensitive Gum Care" head and the "Sensitive Clean" head? My dentist recommends the latter.

Sensitive CLean is new to me. It might be a marketing gimmick, or it might be a new model replacing the Sensitive. I put the two links side by side in different tabs; there is a difference in how they are constructed. Be sure it fits your power tooth brush. We use the "4000" type. My wife uses the sensitive brush, and has for years; I use one (rarely) if I get a minor gum infection. I doubt there is much difference, but I would go with what my dentist recommended. He probably has a reason; you could ask him/her. I am not much help! These Sensitive-type brushes are designed for people with sensitive gums, and for children. http://www.amazon.com/Oral-B-Pro-Health-Sensitive-Clean-Refill/dp/B008CC3SKW/ref=sr_1_5?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1402654142&sr=1-5&keywords=oral+b+replacement+sensitive+brush+heads http://www.amazon.com/Oral-B-Sensitive-Extra-Soft-Brush-heads/dp/B00006ANDK/ref=sr_1_1?s=hpc&ie=UTF8&qid=1402654141&sr=1-1&keywords=oral+b+replacement+sensitive+brush+heads

this one has 5 choices for brushing, one is for sensitive teeth and one to massage gums. I have multiple issues and I love this toothbrush.My dentist and others recommended this one. You'll be happy.

the cleanser is what you need. the other one is for infections. Both are awesome, I keep both on hand at all times.

I leave mine plugged in and in the base all the time. I alternate every other night brushing my teeth with a manual toothbrush. When I floss after using the Sonicare, it's *gross* how much gunk I'm able to get out easily. That alone proves how effective the Sonicare is at moving stuff out of the gums to where it can be removed. Just keep that kind of thing in mind: Sonicare vs. rotting gunk.

Hi Vinny R, The head is semi soft alittle more firm. Buy just one if you can get it, just to try it out. The dual head brushes up & down & in between your teeth. I hope this helps. Have a great evening. V'Netta.

Yes, I have very sensitive teeth and gums, and I have been using these toothbrush heads ever since they were first sold on Amazon. I have always used a Sonicare, from their original toothbrush many years ago. This new Sonicare has a Sensitive setting, which is perfect for my teeth and gums.

This comes recommended by my dentist as I am unable to use harsh rinses. I had sore, red, bleeding gums when I started with this product. The redness, soreness, and bleeding are gone, and my teeth and gums are now healthy. I have a dry, sensitive mouth.

I believe the only differences are a different stand that holds an 'additional' brush head on it,as well as a different setting that is 'supposed' to make your teeth whiter(which I highly doubt.The vesrion that's $100 less also has that setting on it as well.I'd simply stick with the one that's the least expensive.Go look at the difference in your local drugstore if you want to 'see' the difference,otherwise play it smart.You'd be spending an extra $100 on basically nothing.

The base is much easier to keep clean than the sensodyne. The brush heads last about 3 months at least then you need to change them. They are not as expensive to change out.

There is no indication of it being a soft head so it must be a standard one. I've used the Sonicare E-Series for many years and I've never had a problem with the bristles being too hard. I'm pleased with it and according to my dentist, it keeps my teeth healthy and clean.

Hello Anas,Somebody already answered your question, but I would like to add that you should be careful when using the "floss action" head. It works great, but can push back the gum line if you overdo it. I like to alternate between the different heads so that I don't use the same one all the time.Enjoy!

Yes, I use Sensodyne. And on occasion, I will use Arm & Hammer baking soda along with the toothpaste for a really great cleaning.

I notice a difference from the basic brush heads. The diamond stimulates the gum line more.

No, not a big head but you can get the larger head brush if you want, all the Oral B heads are interchangeable. Very good for sensitive teeth, and Oral B is understood to be the best (according to my dentist)

The generic term is "oral irrigator." "Waterpik" is a brand. This oral irrigator is "ToiletTree" brand. We have two in our home and we love them. I like ToiletTree BETTER than Waterpik because you can change the settings so that the stream of water is more gentle or pulses. Good luck with the impacted wisdom tooth, those are painful. See a dentist ASAP and stick with ToiletTree. (It's a weird name but it is the better product.)

Bristle firmness. Dentists usually recommend soft so it is gentler on the gums.

Well I use this brand because of my sensitive gums and teeth, plus I use mouth wash and I floss. I also use whitening strips.
