Product Information

There is no long-term data available that analyses if apps and real-time tracking do have a beneficial impact compared to someone learning the correct brushing techniques via other means, such as plaque disclosing tablets. The iO7 gives you access to five cleaning modes – daily clean, whitening, gum care, sensitive and intense – which is probably three more than you really need, but it does allow you to play about with the oscillation angle of the brush and the frequency to find the one you are most comfortable with. One of the reasons you’d pay more for the iO9 and iO10 is their 3D surface AI brushing tracking but I don’t think it’s that much better than the real-time help the iO8 provides.

Review: Oral-B iO (Series 8) - WIRED

Lots of data is logged and available for review in the future, even if you didn’t use the app in real time. I think it is all based around the logic (I might be wrong) that by seeing the on-screen visual and having to actively think about it a bit more, you do a better job of cleaning.Thank you for all the hard work you have put in to review and provide information about the different Oral B electric toothbrushes. You will also learn how long each secontion needs to be brushed, in fact ask your dentist next time and they will show you how to hold it and what to do. I’ve found that it encourages me to brush for longer as well, as if I zone out or feel as though I’ve been brushing forever, seeing that I’ve only got 30 seconds left spurs me on to complete it. Progress is tracked using sensors in the brush that have been trained via an algorithm and, when used in tandem with the app, this can highlight areas for improvement over time.

And with five different brush modes to cover gum care, whitening and sensitive teeth as well as intense and daily cleans, it’s a good bet for any set of gnashers.As well as looking stylish, with its own carry case, it has really made a difference to how clean my teeth feel. Oral-B’s CrossAction, FlossAction, Precision Clean, Sensi and 3D White brush heads work across brushes in the Vitality, Pro, Smart and Genius lines, but iO Series brushes have their own specific Ultimate Clean and Gentle Care heads. If you’re having an issue connecting your Oral-B electric toothbrush to the app, you may have to update to the latest version of the Oral-B app.

Oral-B Special Edition iO - 8 - Black with Magnetic Pouch + 4

Do bear in mind that with the iO you don’t have the ability to charge the toothbrush in the case and replacement brush heads are more expensive. I have had the series 9 for two years now, but the display has never informed me I need to change the brush, why? Although still smaller in total surface area than a typical sonic head, the iO heads are a bit larger. It also has a tongue-clean mode, which I wish was standard across all the brushes, as a clean tongue is just as important as clean teeth.

Fortunately, these salutations are onscreen only – the day ChatGPT arrives on electric toothbrushes is the day I start brushing my teeth with a twig.
