Description

Remove plaque and experience a deep, effective clean with Sonicare technology, removing up to 7x more plaque vs. a manual toothbrush. Sonicare technology gently pulses water between your teeth, for a month's worth of manual brushing in just 2 minutes. The QuadPacer lets you know when you've spent the optimal amount of time on each section of your mouth while the SmarTimer signals when your 2 minutes is up. The pressure sensor flashes red to remind you to ease off, helping to prevent gum recession, while the 2 intensity settings ensure a comfortable clean that’s right for you. Going electric might feel like a big step, but with this brush you’re in safe hands. Its slim ergonomic design and familiar-shaped head gives you everything you need for an effective clean. The kit includes 1 Philips Sonicare 4100 electric toothbrush, 1 Optimal Plaque Control (C2) brush head and 1 USB charging cable (wall adaptor not included).

Q: Does this plug into the wall socket? In the picture it looks like a USB. Who has a USB at their bathroom sink?!?

submitted by Screen Name - 3 years ago
  • A: Companies useUSB on the end of their power cables because it is a low voltaga connection, therefore they do not need to seek the same certifications as a regular plug, therefore making it cheaper.

    submitted byDEA - 1 year ago
  • A: It’s usb need a charger to plug into outlet

    submitted byCate325 - 5 months ago
  • A: I'm mystified by absence of regular 110V double prong plug. Agree with comment, "who has a USB port in their bathroom?" My home is 30-years old, which is normal.

    submitted byKulgrani - 2 years ago
  • A: Its usb, you will need to buy the plug.

    submitted byJayne - 9 months ago
  • A: yes, this is so unnecessary. I wish to have a normal plug, especially for bathroom to have usb to have extra option for water access, I am surprised they want to take that risk for few cents to keep

    submitted byQuality - 2 years ago
  • A: I have a GFCI with USB charging ports in my bathroom. No issues for me.

    submitted byHAHA - 9 months ago
  • A: Hello! You can use a USB wall adapter to charge the Philips Sonicare 4100 Powered Toothbrush.

  • A: The new toothbrush will almost assuredly work in your old charger base, too; and you won't have to defer to the new USB one. Keep it, though. I'm not an electrician and, in theory, I could be wrong.

    submitted byTxasslm - 9 months ago
  • A: So Phillips wants their customers to replace their bathrm outlets w/ 1 that has a USB port so that WE can use YOUR product? I don't think I'll be remodeling my bathroom so that I can use your product

    submitted byK in plfd - 1 year ago
  • A: I bought an adapter plug that has both the usb plugin and a standard outlet plugin. It cost me $9.99, its a simple and cheap fix.

    submitted byWayne - 8 months ago
  • A: Embrace change. It's going to happen anyway. Resistence to the USB is you keeping one foot in the past and no foot in the future, leaving you in a flamingo stance. Do the bridge in all things.

Q: How often should one change heads ?

submitted by Jess - 2 months ago
  • A: Hello! It is recommended to replace your Philips Sonicare Brush Head every three months of normal use (brushing twice a day) or when the blue indicator bristles wear out.

    submitted byPhilips Consumer Care - 2 months ago
  • A: The indicator says every 3 months. Most heads come with a colored indicator to change and if you get heads that have the “brush sync” technology the toothbrush will actually alert you to this.

    submitted byzoomzoom - 9 days ago
  • A: Hello! It is recommended to replace your Philips Sonicare Brush Head every three months of normal use (brushing twice a day) or when the blue indicator bristles wear out. One reason is that brush heads can get weary and will be less effective in removing plaque.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually buy a larger Phillips but this was on sale. It isn't as powerful as the others. Makes a straining sound when push tightly against my teeth. I'll buy another and use this for travel.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the toothbrush but they need more durable switches. I've had the switches wear out on three toothbrushes already. It's expensive to buy a new one for how long they last. Not to mention the toothbrush heads are over priced.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I get a noticeably better clean with this electric toothbrush. It comes with a less intense setting in the beginning, but after a week or two it ramps up in intensity. Unfortunately, this results in splatters to the mirror, faucet and my clothes. I hope there is a workaround for this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was looking to upgrade from a spin-brush and saw reviews about Phillips Sonicare 4100 being a great choice. Got one from a local natoinal chain food store for a decent price and haven't regretted it since. Went to a dental check-up/cleaning and the hygenist said they could see a difference, so this product is a keeper.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used an older model Phillips sonicare for many years. The battery finally died and I purchased the 4100 series. I love it. I wasnt sure that I’d like the timer but have found it to be very helpful. It is a great product and my hygienist tells me that I am doing a good job cleaning. Thanks to Phillips!

I can always tell when they use electric vs manual toothbrushes. My husband went from a battery brush to this and he is enjoying it. Says it tickles his gums but as his hygienist I see a big difference. Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After decades of "excellent" oral care the hygienists and dentists gush over at each cleaning visit, someone made mention of the Sonicare 4000. Well, it elevated my already "excellent" oral care to the next level. The results for the price certainly exceeded my expectations and I recommend it without reservation. This review is sincere. I received nothing at all for it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my new Philips sonic toothbrush, I love how fast it charges and how long a charge lasts, but mostly I love the way it cleans my teeth! It encourages me to brush for 2 minutes and is timed by quarter of a mouth. It is much smaller than my previous Philips toothbrush and takes up lots less counter space too. I would encourage anyone who brushes their teeth to get you one of these brushes and you will never skip a night of brushing again! It's also lots less messy to use in my bath sink too. I never realized what a mess it was using a manual toothbrush before this!
