I've pretty much stuck with the old fashioned way of brushing one's teeth over the course of my life so far, but recently someone was saying how glad they were they made the switch to electric. I had a "Crest Spinbrush" put aside... my mom gave it to me a while back as a stocking stuffer - but I just stuck with regular toothbrushes. I decided to try it out.
I actually felt it did do a great job.
But, the damn thing is so loud. It's like I have a fucking beehive in my mouth. It woke up my roommate from a sound sleep. And if you hit a tooth with the plastic part, it gives it quite the rattle.
I'm tempted to stick with electric now, but I want something that handles a bit better, and doesn't make so much damned noise.
That in mind, are the higher end models (Sonic Care, etc) worth their price tag? Is there anything else feature-wise that makes them worth while?
