Oral-B has two premium electric toothbrushes for sale, the Triumph 4000 which retails at almost £140 and the Triumph 5000, available for the cost of almost £170. The Triumph 4000 comes with three sorts of brush head: floss action, three dimensional white and delicate clean brush heads. Included is a travel case and the charging station with built in brush storage. The Triumph 5000 includes identical brush heads, travel case and charging station but can also include the wireless digital Smart Guide unit. This is an especially advanced sonic electric toothbrush.
These fantastic toothbrushes have been slimmed down for a more elegant look and feature the Treble Action Pressure Control System with auditory, visible and sensory signals that inform the user if they are brushing their teeth with too much force. When excessive pressure is employed while cleaning teeth, the pulsating action is halted and a red light flashes on the handle. The brushing mode is switched to ‘sensitive ‘ so reducing the brushing speed and stopping teeth and gum damage. Triumph 4000 and 5000 have a simple to reach stop button and colour LED handle displays so battery life and brushing mode can be seen easily. Triumph 4000 provides a timer incorporated into the handle to watch optimum brushing time.
The Triumph 5000 includes the definitive feature, the new improved wireless digital Smart Guide unit, which has a Star Reward system to encourage brushing. The unit also has a timer, pressure alert, quadrant prompt and ‘replace brush head ‘ indicator and wirelessly syncs with the toothbrush to give real-time feedback on teeth cleaning. The Star Reward system consists of 5 stars that illuminate one at a time as teeth are brushed, giving a 5 star rating when brushed correctly in the allotted time. The quadrant prompt informs you after 30 seconds to sweep a different area of your mouth, therefore helping to completely clean all four quadrants. The Victory 5000 will also memorise total brushing time and make it clear when to replace the brush head.
Both Oral-B 4000 and 5000 Triumph models will provide superior 3D brushing technology as they pulsate, revolve and oscillate to remove twice as much plaque as a normal manual toothbrush. The Triumph 4000 has 4 cleaning modes: daily clean, sensitive, polish and deep clean. The Victory 5000 has an extra ‘massage ‘ mode for gentle stimulation of gums, a visual indicator on the Smart Guide unit shows the brush mode. Both models have brushing mode icons in the LED display on the handle so brushing mode can be chosen easily and fit with a large range of Oral-B brush heads, including precision clean, floss action, dual action, sensitive clean and 3D white.
