The Best Compact Electric Toothbrush For 2019

Getting the right electric toothbrush is vital for preventing gum disease and keeping your teeth pearly white. Today we break down the best compact electric toothbrush on the market. Before we start we’ve included links in the description to pricing options on the various electric toothbrushes so check those out.

Fairywill Sonic Electric Toothbrush

To start us off at number 7 we have the Fairywill Sonic Electric Toothbrush. A right toothbrush doesn’t have to be costly. The Fairywill Sonic Electric Toothbrush is an excellent suggestion of that. It may not be a unique name label like Oral-B, but it gives the kind of production you’d expect from a big name brand. Moreover, that is no small achievement. The Fairywill gives a sleek, ergonomic toothbrush each bit as smart as the biggest brands in the world. The toothbrush presents three separate settings: clean, sensitive, and massage.

So whether you want to get the job done quickly or you have sensitive teeth, there are options for you. One of the most desirable features of an electric toothbrush is the automatic timer. It might be a budget-friendly toothbrush, but that doesn’t suggest they don’t read where it adds. With a two-minute automated shutoff, you’ll get the clean brush every time.

Also, Fairywill has an incredible lifespan. One four hour charge will power the toothbrush for up to a month, so you never have to worry about it running out of juice. And since it uses a USB charger, you can charge it with you wherever you go – even in your car while you travel! As a bonus, the toothbrush ships with two extra brush heads, giving you nine months worth of brushes and saving time and money.

The toothbrush is completely waterproof and can be used safely in the shower. It comes with a one-year warranty and a 180-day money-back guarantee, so you have absolutely nothing to lose in trying it. Long story short: there’s almost nothing this toothbrush won’t do. For a toothbrush that costs less than $30, that’s incredible. And when you do finally need replacement heads, you can get a four-pack for $9.99. That’s a years’ worth of brushing teeth for Alexander Hamilton. Not bad at all.

Philips Sonicare Essence Sonic Rechargeable Toothbrush

Next, up at number 6, we have the Philips Sonicare Essence Sonic Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush. Compared to the Fairywill toothbrush, Philips Sonicare Essence doesn’t provide as good for the money. But that’s not a knock on this toothbrush, as it performs exactly as I’d expect it to, and at a very reasonable price to boot. One of the biggest boons of the Philips Sonicare is the patented sonic technology. It enables the toothbrush to provide 31,000 brush strokes a minute, tens of thousands of times more than a manual toothbrush is capable of. It allows the toothbrush to give a more thorough clean, even in areas where the brush has trouble reaching, fighting plaque and warding gum infections like gingivitis. Like any electric toothbrush worth its salt, the Sonicare Essence comes with a two-minute timer and an automatic shut off afterwards, ensuring you brush your teeth just the right amount.

Another exciting feature of this toothbrush is its Easy-Start feature. It gradually increases the power of the brush over the first 12 uses, helping your mouth acclimate to the new brush and avoid bloody gums and other issues common with switching brushes. A two-year warranty backs the toothbrush and runs for up to two weeks on a single charge. The toothbrush comes with a charging base that makes it easy to store when not in use.

All in all, this is an excellent toothbrush. Unfortunately, it does not come with replacement heads and two-pack costs between $20 and $30. I preferred the Fairywill to this, but if you’re looking for a toothbrush by a well-established company, this one is a great value.

Oral-B Pro 3000 Electronic Power Electric Toothbrush

Next, up at number 5, we have the Oral-B Pro 3000 Electronic Power Rechargeable Battery Electric Toothbrush. The Oral-B Pro 3000 Series is a significant step up from the Pro 1000 brush. Where the last brush offered the barest minimum of features, the Pro 3000 has a lot more to offer. Like most good toothbrushes, the Pro 3000 provides three different settings to take care of all your needs. From the cleaning and whitening mode to sensitive mode and gum care massage, all of the essentials are right there.

What’s more, the toothbrush offers something most others do not: Bluetooth technology that connects to an app on your phone. It provides you with real-time information on your brushing routines and helps you to know if you get off track or schedule. Also, this Pro Series comes with three replacement heads for a full year’s supply of clean teeth. If you would instead purchase the replacement brushes separately, the brush itself is priced at around $75 – a reasonable markup for a vastly superior brush.

Oral-B Pro 5000 SmartSeries Power Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush

Next up at number 4, we have the Oral-B Pro 5000 SmartSeries Power Rechargeable Electric Toothbrush. For whatever reason, Oral-B likes to skip odd numbers in their series of toothbrushes. No matter; the Pro 5000 SmartSeries is a sleek, powerful toothbrush with even more improvements over the 3000 Series. Priced at just around $100, this is relatively expensive for a toothbrush, but then again, it does things no other toothbrush can. The most notable difference between this and the Pro 3000 is once again the number of intensity settings. Where the Oral-B 1000 had just one basic configuration, and the 3000 had three, the Pro 5000 SmartSeries offers five different modes: daily care, gum care, deep clean, sensitive, and whitening.

With the Oral-B Pro 5000, you never have to brush your teeth the same way two days in a row. Like the Pro 3000, the 5000 SmartSeries offers a Bluetooth connection to your smartphone, giving you real-time updates and feedback. It’s helping you to brush smarter and take better care of your oral health and dental hygiene. Another bonus of the Oral-B 5000 is that it comes with a travel case, making it more convenient for you to take your toothbrush with you when you’re not at home. It isn’t a toothbrush to buy lightly – it represents a serious investment. But if you’re hesitant about your dental health, you can’t go wrong with this.

Oral-B 7000 SmartSeries Rechargeable Power Electric Toothbrush

Next up at number 3, we have the Oral-B Pro 7000 SmartSeries Black Electronic Power Rechargeable Toothbrush. There’s one major problem with reviewing the same elemental toothbrush four times in a row. What can I say about the Oral-B Pro 7000 SmartSeries that I haven’t already said about the last three? Oral-B isn’t reinventing the wheel each time they release a new series. Instead, they make a handful of specific but valuable improvements. The significant changes this time include a sixth brush setting: tongue cleaner. It’s an excellent feature, as your tongue can collect a lot of food particles, bacteria and other nasty stuff as you eat. (There are more bacteria in your mouth than any other organ, after all.) By cleaning your tongue regularly, you can take steps to improve both your breath and your overall oral health.

The other significant addition to this SmartSeries is the Braun wireless Smart Guide. This real-time piece of electronics serves as a real-time hub, providing visual feedback while you brush. It’s helpful because, while you can’t readily stare at your Android while you’re brushing your teeth, you can look at a little computer screen. All of the other things you’ve come to expect, including Bluetooth capabilities and a travel case, are all included with the Pro 7000. At nearly $150, this is a lot more toothbrush than most people need. But if you insist on having the best, this is an excellent place to start.

Philips Sonicare Flexcare Platinum, Electric Rechargeable Toothbrush

At number 2 we have the Philips Sonicare Elite HX5910 Power Toothbrush with Quadpacer. If you’re wondering why this toothbrush is so expensive, you can relax. It’s a two-pack of electric toothbrushes, making this both an excellent value and an excellent investment for a couple to begin taking better care of the teeth together. The Sonicare Elite HX5910 is the complete package. The brush comes with several great features, including three different brush modes, a two-minute timer with intervals, and a two-year warranty that guarantees lasting satisfaction from your toothbrush. Since this is a two-pack, you’re getting a lot more value as well.

Included are two charging stations, two travel packs, and three standard brush heads, so you’re getting quite a lot of value with this purchase. Sonicare claims to be the #1 toothbrush recommended by dentists, but Oral-B also makes that claim, so I don’t know who’s right or wrong here. I’m also not sure it matters. While the Sonicare Elite doesn’t come with built-in Bluetooth that connects with a smart app, that isn’t exactly a must-have for a toothbrush. If you’re looking for a high-end toothbrush, I’d say this is pretty much exactly on par with the Oral-B Pro Series 3000. Even the replacement brush heads are a competitive price.

Philips Sonicare DiamondClean Smart 9300 Electric Toothbrush

Now for the top spot and the best rated electric toothbrush we have the Philips Sonicare DiamondClean 9300 Series Electric Toothbrush. The Sonicare DiamondClean 9300 is Philips’ answer to the Oral-B SmartSeries. This exceptional electric toothbrush offers not just four different user modes (clean, white, deep clean, gum health). But also three different intensity settings, giving you unparalleled control over your brushing experience. Also, the DiamondClean 9300 has three different types of brush to compliment the various settings, and also includes smart sensors that provide you with real-time feedback as you brush. Like the Oral-B SmartSeries, DiamondClean connects directly to your smartphone, monitoring your brushing habits and offering feedback to help you to a healthier smile. Perhaps what’s most impressive about the DiamondClean are the accouterments.

The charging station provides style like you’ve never seen it before: a stylish glass charger that classes up your bathroom vanity. Also impressive is the premium travel case that is as white as your smile is going to be. Both of these accessories help elevate the DiamondClean to a whole new level. Most people are probably not interested in spending nearly $200 on a single toothbrush. But if you want an exceptional brushing experience, Sonicare DiamondClean 9300 is an excellent ride. So that sums up our top electric toothbrushes, we hope you enjoyed.
