It’s not a touchscreen, which is a good thing. Instead, it is controlled via the function buttons above and below. The app also gives you tips to improve your oral health, and kids will appreciate the ability to earn virtual badges for consistently good brushing. One the iO Series 9's best features is its pressure sensor, which is connected to colored LEDs in the bottom of the handle. You can choose a default color for the light for a personal touch, and while you're brushing the color will shift to green if you're applying just the right amount of pressure, or red it you're pressing too hard. If it remains on your custom color, you're not pressing hard enough. During a typical two-minute clean you should ideally spend twenty seconds cleaning all of the six zones. Moving to myself, I used the toothbrush for a couple of weeks. With previous Oral-B brushes, such as the excellent Oral-B Genius 9000, I found that I had to get used to the oscillating power, with some gum bleeding to start off with.It is admittedly one of a select few that have the ability to charge the brush whilst in the case. But, it is hampered by the bulky proprietary power adapter. If you’re committed to the app enough to gain the insights, it still relies on you making the changes to your technique.

Thanks to the iO Series 9’s frictionless magnetic drive, things were easier this time around and it feels more like brushing with a sonic brush. However, look at the brush head as it moves, and you get more energy and dynamic movement than with sonic models. I now have my own child and I’ve tried to encourage my child to brush their teeth but it’s not been easy to be consistent when I’m not brushing regularly enough myself and I have pretty poor technique. Thanks to the comfortable, round brush, rather than the longer, elongated brushes that you get with Philips models, the iO Series 9 is extremely comfortable to brush with.
