Customer Reviews of Ultreo Ultrasound Toothbrush

Customer Review: 2 out of 3 of my handsets failed after less than 3 months
Summary: 2 Stars

I've burned through 3 Ultreo handsets in the past 8 months. Two of these have failed after less than 3 months use. One of them starting rattling before ceasing to work; the other one sprang a micro-leak somewhere and allowed moisture to enter the internals, causing it the handset to fail prematurely. Ultreo's customer service is good and they have replaced these handsets, but a generic cover letter from the CEO (included with one of the replacement handsets) alluded that there was a design flaw in some or all of the handsets and that they'd had a high rate of failure. No telling how long my third handset will last before dying like the others.

The build quality and materials appear to be top-rate, but a 66% failure handset failure rate (my experience) says a lot about this first-generation product. I've used Oral B Sonic Complete (my favorite and a real bargain at less than fifty dollars many places) and the SonicCare Elite. The Ultreo is no better than its competitors. My favorite brush is the Oral B Sonic Complete for its low price and reliability (the handset still works after 3 years).

The ultrasound cleaning feature is a marketing gimmick in my opinion. The Ultreo Web site has no credible scientific studies corroborating its claimed benefits. Stick with a tried-and-true brand like Sonicare or Oral B Sonic Complete.

Description of Ultreo Ultrasound Toothbrush

The best way to feel confident about the power toothbrush Dentist recommend is to try UltreoŽ for yourself. We guarantee your teeth will feel cleaner than ever before. " Ultreo is the first power toothbrush to combine patented ultrasound waveguide technology with precisely tuned sonic bristle action. Ultreo's bristles create microbubbles that are powerfully activated by nearly 4 million cycles of ultrasound energy per brushing channeled by a patented ultrasound waveguide. What to Expect The Ultreo brushing experience is unlike any other toothbrush. Here are some useful tips to help you become accustomed to the unique feel. We guarantee that after the initial adjustment period, your teeth will feel cleaner than ever before. * As ultrasound requires a fluid medium to perform effectively, try to keep as much fluid around the bristles as possible while you brush. * Ultreo has been designed to work with a small "pea-sized" amount of toothpaste. * Ultreo should be used with gentle pressure and a light touch. * Keep the bristles, not the waveguide, in contact with the teeth and gumline while brushing. * You may feel the waveguide touching your teeth at first. This is normal and most users report that the waveguide is not noticeable at all after the first few brushings.

How Ultreo Works

Ultreo is the first power toothbrush to combine patented ultrasound waveguide technology with precisely tuned sonic bristle action. Ultreo?s bristles create microbubbles that are powerfully activated by nearly 4 million cycles of ultrasound energy per brushing channeled by a patented ultrasound waveguide.

What to Expect

The Ultreo brushing experience is unlike any other toothbrush. Here are some useful tips to help you become accustomed to the unique feel. We guarantee that after the initial adjustment period, your teeth will feel cleaner than ever before.

  • As ultrasound requires a fluid medium to perform effectively, try to keep as much fluid around the bristles as possible while you brush.
  • Ultreo has been designed to work with a small ?pea-sized? amount of toothpaste.
  • Ultreo should be used with gentle pressure and a light touch.
  • Keep the bristles, not the waveguide, in contact with the teeth and gumline while brushing.
  • You may feel the waveguide touching your teeth at first. This is normal and most users report that the waveguide is not noticeable at all after the first few brushings.

Purchase an Ultreo ultrasound toothbrush and use it for 30 days. If your teeth don't feel cleaner than ever before, give us a call at 1.877.4.ULTREO and we'll refund your money. We believe in our ultrasound difference.
