Product Description
The Oral-B PRO 5000 SmartSeries electric toothbrush with Bluetooth is the world's first of its kind with Bluetooth connectivity. Bluetooth communication allows the brush to connect with your Oral-B App to provide real time brushing guidance that can be adjusted by your dental professional. Also receive focused care through personalized dental care journeys to meet your specific oral care needs. The professionally inspired design of the CrossAction toothbrush head surrounds each tooth with bristles angled at 16 degrees, and 3D cleaning action oscillates, rotates, and pulsates to break up and remove up to 100% more plaque than a regular manual toothbrush. The pressure sensor lights up if you brush too hard to prevent harmful over-brushing and there are 4 modes - Daily Clean, Gum Care, Sensitive, and Whitening - and a timer to help you brush for a dentist-recommended 2 minutes. Best of all, it's brought to you by Oral-B - the #1 brand used by dentists worldwide.

It's ask getting a bit silly now, Bluetooth - really? What next, memory foam handles with a fingerprint scanner and sat nav, in case you get lost on the way to your bathroom? Seems like everyone is abdicating common sense to an app. Toothbrush good, Bluetooth pointless. You have to brush your teeth at your computer?

A passionate defence of Bluetooth toothbrushes. But let's face it, the Bluetooth element is useless.

dental student here - we try to use the Bluetooth to motivate patients to brush for the full two minutes. although a simple egg timer would work too.

I'm waiting for someone to produce a Bluetooth enabled Toilet Brush.

Silly ask away...
Better than bleeding red gums.
Not much point if your toothbrush resides in the bathroom. You wouldn't be able to find that either, even with memory foam.
No, but you could use the Bluetooth connection on a Smartphone or tablet device.

Some models used to come with a handy clock/timer to show how long you had been brushing for, or if you were brushing too hard. Now I think that functionality and probably more goes on your phone.
Seems silly to me, I'd rather not use phone for that.

Yep an unnecessary faff. The cheaper models have a timer built in where the brush speed changes for a fraction of a second every 30 seconds so you can time 2 minutes and spend 30 seconds on each sector of your mouth, a much simpler solution.
Its a decent price for what it is, but personally I'd wait for the 3000 or 4000 to be on offer.

"Bluetooth communication allows the brush to connect with your Oral-B App to provide real time brushing guidance that can be adjusted by your dental professional"
Just no. That said, how's this price compared to an oral-B toothbrush without bluetooth? If it's still cheaper I'll probably buy it, then never connect it to anything. If the neighbours want to maliciously track my teeth-brushing activities let them.

No, because it has Bluetooth

To provide real time brushing you need to see the info - computer, tablet or phone. So either you take one in the bathroom (pretty dumb thing to do) or you brush outside bathroom. I use an oral B that has a 2 minute timer, great brush but this does smack of ' build a better mousetrap'.

Memory foam handle? Good idea, I'd buy that.

Oral B make the best toothbrushes (ask your dentist/hygienist) but boy do they exploit their position. Truth is the sweet spot in the Oral B range is the 600 (cheapest with '3D' action). Those below it (eg Vitality) are poorer brushes, those above it charge more for unnecessary gimmicks. This appears to be a great deal (ie massive reduction from vastly inflated RRP) and will, no doubt, do a decent job but you just don't need to spend even this much.
Personally, bought 2x600 while on offer at Savers for £19.99 (may still be some left?) and I use one while I charge the other - simple and convenient!

No big deal. Just P&G/OralB collecting data on your brushing habits :-)

Cold. I don't want Bluetooth from my toothbrush, I want Whitetooth.

If you're interested the 4000 is £36 at Costco at the moment if you or a friend has membership.

Thanks, I grabbed a 3000 a little while back myself, waited for it to drop to £30 and was happy enough with that.

Believe me people the 2000/3000 will do the exact same thing mechanically w.r.t your teeth.

I've got this brush, complete gimik, don't use the app anymore, probably only did 4 or 5 times! Great brush but battery life is awful, can only suggest this is due to the Bluetooth always being on.
