Bitvae R2 Rotating Electric Toothbrush for Adults with 8 Brush Heads, 5 Modes Rechargeable Power Toothbrush with Pressure Sensor, White

12/15/23 Original Product Review (in case I return for updates).THE BASICS12/13/23 Found the Bitvae R2 Rotating Electric Toothbrush in Pink on Amazon and Placed Order.12/14/23 Received the product late this evening, securely packaged and undamaged. The pink hue is true to its image color, and I like it despite not being a "pink person."TLDRThis morning, I brushed my teeth for the first time in two years without over- or under-brushing, sensitivity and pain-free, and without feeling like my teeth were shifting.THE FULL STORYLet me explain: In 2021, I got into a major cycling accident that changed a lot of my daily routine I took for granted more difficult. After going over my handlebars, I primarily landed on my mandible with my maxilla taking a hard blow, too. My chin bounced twice on the ground (only for my lower jaw to pop back) before my face (and the rest of me) slid on the concrete to a stop. My top row of teeth, well, the only way I know how to put it is that they immediately felt like they had slumped forward in my face (and they had).After a bit of dampened sound and ear-ringing, bright lights and loud, bothersome noises, not to mention the blood pouring from my nose, face, mouth, and wounds, I was treated (probably insufficiently) at the ER and headed to a local dentist. From the general feeling of skidding my lower teeth and lip on the pavement and having my head jolted enough that each front top tooth looked like someone had crushed ice in a blender and left it sitting in its container, I knew things were going to be bad.THE CONSEQUENCESNot only had the long and painful, but effective process of moving my jaw forward by an orthodontist been completely undermined, but all six top front teeth were, indeed, crushed. The palatine process of my maxilla (soft palate) had a thin, but long crack running back through it, and the other more superficial parts of my maxilla that surrounded my sinuses -- tiny fractures ran throughout.WHY OTHER TOOTHBRUSHES WEREN'T WORKINGSince then, tons of anesthesia, twelve surgeries, lots of drilling, filing, and testing, irritating crown fitting, teeth shifting, nerve pain and cold sensitivity...things haven't been the same. Try as I might, what used to be a simple, quick everyday task had become frustrating.I've always believed I shouldn't let the little things get to me. But often, it's exactly the little things that get to you, because they're not just little things. They're habitual. They're routine. Across the span of your life, they're actually really big things. How you approach your health -- including your teeth -- is one of those things.I've tried extra soft and soft manual toothbrushes, different brands, returned to my original Colgate; I tried using the Burst toothbrush and a similar "sonic" variety that my husband uses; different toothpastes; mouthwashes; flossing methods and flossers; coconut oil pulling; everything I knew to do before and that could be done or that recently came out...whatever friends and family recommended. In two years, I've not once felt like my teeth were fully cleaned or, if picked, prodded, and scrubbed well, fully stable.THE BITVAENothing has worked like this toothbrush. Today, my teeth feel clean, but my gums aren't sensitive, swollen, or bleeding from my being excessive thoroughness and over-brushing. And I've only tried the "Clean" setting.The timer feature in the Bitvae was a smidge startling because, eager to try it, I overlooked the manual details and was unaware that there was one lol. Let's just say it's obvious. But, if you know to expect it, it's brief and distinct -- a slightly different buzz that cues you to move on and kinda' propels you to, which (having OCD tendencies) I appreciate. And while I wouldn't say the Bitvae is quiet, it's certainly no louder than any of the other battery-operated competitors I've tried. (Because of the accident's damage to my ears, it honestly sounded a little like a quiet light saber at times. Weird, nerdy Star Wars reference, I know, but I'm just calling it like I...heard it.)As un-irritated as my gums feel, they also feel well-massaged. The tissue looks and feels clean and bright, without feeling or showing any signs of inflammation or agitation. From the front of my crowns to the crevices behind my molars and all in between, my enamel is evenly brushed and fresh. The Bitvae's brush head was small enough to clean all around without knocking about or hitting other teeth. Meanwhile its grip, heavy in my hand, was sturdy to hold, but not burdensome in any way. It was very easy to maneuver.My breath smells and tastes better (un-tinged by the last of accidentally brushing something too hard and more so than if I tried "brushing gently"), if that makes sense. And the Bitvae, having come charged, remains charged, worked smoothly -- better than I anticipated.I rarely (IF EVER) give products a five-star rating. I'm a meticulous person who, in herself and the products she purchases, almost always finds room for improvement. But, I'm truly satisfied with this purchase, which cost me less than half of what a similar Oral B would (when the Oral B is on sale for 50%+ off) have.CONCLUSIONBuy it. I don't like throwing away money, and I know all of this sounds dramatic, but an accident like the one I had is nothing short of that. Meanwhile, the Bitvae comes with a year's warranty, which is reassuring as a customer and as someone whose dental health has been affected for life. The return of a well-cared-for mouth with the ease I once had of "just brushing my teeth" pre-accident is amazing. To have brushing my teeth -- which had become a process in itself to grapple with every morning -- return to a brief, but effective routine is such a relief. I'm grateful for the bit of time I'll get back every day. I hope you'll take the opportunity to enjoy it, too!

You are not going to regret buying this toothbrush it is amazing on how many functions it has on the front I really enjoy the features it has and the fact that you can switch from sensitive to tongue just by pressing the button. I also like that it has a charging USB port whenever the battery goes low and it also indicates you on when to switch sides, which I believe is every 30 seconds for each side of your mouth. It also has pressure sensor on when you are brushing too hard. It will alert you on the toothbrush. I love that it comes with many replacement heads if I lost one or I wanna replace one I can always add another one and it also has a case to take it on the go if you are traveling or using it for on the go. But for all the other factors, it does a really good job on cleaning the teeth after I clean my teeth. I feel so happy on how clean and fresh they are compared to other electric toothbrushes. I’ve used in the past this one by far is the best one I have used with all the features that has it does a really great job. And I also wanna say is that their customer service is excellent.

I bought this because I wanted an electric toothbrush that could be recharged via USB - which is easier when traveling to another country. I charged it when I received it. I've been using it for 2 weeks, twice a day and so far it hasn't needed another charge. So far so good! It cleans my teeth well. There are multiple options for speed and patterns most of which I'll never use.I didn't give 5 stars because there are a few things I'm not fond of. First, it's kind of heavy. I would have been happier with a smaller lighter design that has to be charged more often to save space and weight in the suitcase. The travel case is strong and robust but also rather large and heavy. But it holds 2 brush heads which is great. Unfortunately, the on/off switch is very easy to press which means that using the travel case is pretty much required since otherwise it's going to accidentally turn on in the suitcase. A good design choice would have been a travel lock so it doesn't inadvertently turn on. Another annoyance is the color choice on the brushes. Blue and light blue. Really??? My husband and I both use this. Couldn't they have chosen two colors that were a bit more different? Lastly the charging cord. It's proprietary with a barrel plug on one end. Not a standard USB. So that's one more cord I have to bring. And it doesn't fit in the travel case. I wish they'd chosen micro-usb or USB-C which I'm already carrying for other devices.

I am 2 years nicotine free, I used to dip tobacco and even though I've quit, I have bad stains. I also always end up with bad plaque build up a lot and normal toothbrushes don't do the job for me and neither do the electric toothbrushes that only vibrate.First time using this toothbrush, I was impressed with my results. the 2 minute timer for each mode aside from tongue mode with the 30 second pauses to remind you to swap areas in the mouth is extremely wonderful. The tongue mode gives you 20 seconds to gently clean the whiteness off your tongue. After using this product, I felt NO plaque anywhere and I even used the gum mode to message my gums after the cleaning process. I'm sticking to this product. 100% recommend buying, you won't regret it!

I initially purchased one for my husband in blue. He liked it so much I decided to try it. Charge lasts for a very long time like months and we use for travel as well use at least 2x a day. Great for gums and tung. I find lite pressure when using is best - Love the 2 minute timer and we have used it for travel. It would be nice to have a carry case. great purchase try it
