Healthier Teeth, Healthier You
As a health & fitness blogger, I write a lot about eating well and exercising but that’s not the whole picture of health is it? I admit, I don’t think much about the health of my teeth and gums on a regular basis (unless my dental appointment is approaching). When I was given a new Philips Sonicare Flexcare Platinum Connected Electric Toothbrush to review, I was curious to see how I would measure up. Healthier teeth, healthier you!
You can find the Philips Sonicare Flexcare Platinum Connected toothbrush right at your local Bed, Bath & Beyond store. Since we just moved, a new electric toothbrush was the perfect addition to my new bathroom. Plus, I don’t need an excuse to go to Bed, Bath & Beyond!
Since I have begun to use apps to track everything (water intake, running mileage, temperature in our house), it seems like a logical and efficient next step to use an app to help improve the health of my teeth as well. By downloading the new free Philips Sonicare app, you can easily track your brushing skills, get real time feedback on your brushing performance and even get alerted when it’s time to replace your brush head. Takes the guesswork out of brushing!
What’s Different about the Philips Sonicare Flexcare Platinum Connected:
The app allows you to choose your goal (whiter teeth, less plaque, healthier gums or fresh breath) and then guides you through your brushing experience in real time. As you follow along the prompts for brushing, you will get instant feedback on pressure, movement and coverage of your brushing session. Who knew there was so much to learn?
You will then see prompts to return to any areas that might need touching up. After your brush, the app will remind you to floss or rinse too.
After 2 weeks of using the brush continuously, I’ve noticed a few things. I am brushing my teeth for up to 3 minutes each night when I use the app. As a fitness app junkie, of course I want to ace my brushing session. I like the positive feedback I am getting and encouragement to floss or rinse after each brush.
I can’t believe I am saying this but, I am kind of excited to go to my dentist visit in a few months to show him all the progress I’ve made with my dental health. Healthier Teeth, healthier you!
How fun is this? I recommend these kinds of toothbrushes to my young patients who don’t like to brush. I like the idea of positive feedback like that!
I need all the positive feedback I can get!
Am I the only one that thanks this is taking apps too far? I’m a little concerned about my phone being near water. Seriously, happy that it worked for you technology seems amazing. Follow up with what your dentist has to say.
LOl I was not worried about the water. I really liked the positive feedback and I honestly brushed my teeth about twice as long as I normally do
Confession: I always speed my way through brushing and I NEVER floss…oops.
Well I know so did I until a few weeks ago!!!
My Sonicare and I are best friends. I love that thing and feel weird if I use a regular toothbrush now!
It does feel weird to use a regular one when you’ve been using it
I saw this on your Instagram this morning and thought it was great!!!
It really is!
Technology is too cool now a days! I have Philips Sonicare, but had no idea about that app?! Awesome!
The app is life changing check it out and thanks for stopping by today
Oh my! an app for brushing my teeth! I am not sure what I think about that yet, I will have to chew on that one! LOL! I do have a sonicare toothbrush and it is absolutely the best thing on the planet! Nice review 🙂
Thanks! I honestly think it has changed my brushing for good!
I swear there is an app for every freaking thing these days. I do love my Sonicare though!
There really is!
You know this future dentist approves of this post! I always recommend electric toothbrushes to my patients and love using mine! They definitely change the oral hygiene game!
I am surprised how much my habits have changed in just a few weeks
Oh wow… there really is an app for everything! I used to have a Sonicare, but it just stopped working. Maybe I let the battery get too dead? I loved how clean it made my mouth feel!
You may have to check out this newer version I highly recommend it
Omg GET OUT!! This is the coolest thing ever!!! Me and my nerdy self would be all over this!
Ha ha sounds like someone is getting a new toothbrush! Christmas wish list?
Well that’s the smartest tooth brush I’ve ever seen!
It really is!
Wow, that’s really neat!
I know isn’t it?!
This is very cool! I had no idea that there was a toothbrush or app like this…I may just need to get one of these to keep me honest 🙂
It’s a great one to put on your holiday list!
Technology is crazy!! Seeing spots you’ve missed or need more work at, what a cool function.
I found it really interesting
While I have one child who is obsessed with brushing her teeth the other seems to need reminders and doesn’t seem to do the best job. Going to check this out, thanks for sharing!
Thanks hope it works out for them!
Interesting! An app for tooth brushing, huh! I’m not very disciplined about flossing, but I do brush my teeth twice a day…no exceptions 😉
Don’t tell but I am so lazy about flossing
Wow! They do think of everything, don’t they? What a cool gadget!
I am really impressed with it so far!
My first thought is…seriously? There’s really an app for everything. My second thought is…I need this. I’m not great with brushing my teeth long enough and have some spots my dentist is keeping an eye on. :-/ I really need to NOT have to get cavities filled again. It’s the worst.
Yes exactly! My dentist is going to be so impressed next visit
The app sounds cool! I just got a new electric toothbrush, and it’s amazing the difference it makes.
It really is!
I guess there is an app for everything. That is pretty cool though. Maybe I will add that to my Christmas wish list. I wonder if it is really accurate? Guess you will find out next time you go to dentist. I always heard that you were suppose to floss before you brush your teeth though?
Hmm not sure about that I think my dentist would just be happy if I actually did it at all!
Holy cow! There’s an app for everything! This is pretty cool and probably something I really need since I had so much work done on my teeth recently.
I am finding it really helpful so far
What a fun app to check out!!
I remember always wanting an electric toothbrush as a kid but my mother was not down with that. Now that I’m an adult I still haven’t gotten one for myself lol. Clearly I need to rectify that.
Sounds like a Christmas list idea to me 🙂
I am such a fan of electric tooth brushes!! It can transform your teeth!!!
Seriously yes it can
Holy technology! This is SO clever!
It is kind of cool I think!
whoa…this is really cool! I have been meaning to get an electric tooth brush for a while. I know that it is better for your teeth, and I really should. This looks awesome!
I really love it!
I hadn’t heard of this app before but I can see where it would be very beneficial. Great information, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for stopping by!
I know that dental health is crucial to overall wellness but this is the first time I’ve actually heard of a toothbrush that monitors your brushing. Your review just made me interested enough to grab one for myself!
I am really enjoying it!
