Amazon.com Product Description
The Sonicare Elite 9500 Custom Care Power Toothbrush is built for your individual oral care needs. Just like a smile, no two mouths are the same. That's why the Sonicare Elite 9500 is designed with the new Custom Care System, offering two speeds and two brush head sizes for more individualized brushing. The Elite 9500 has patented sonic technology, high-speed bristle motion, and dynamic fluid cleaning action that gently and effectively reaches deep between teeth and below the gumline.



The Elite 9500 is built for your individual oral care needs.


31,000 bristle sweeps per minute removes harmful plaque.
Sonicare is the only Sonic toothbrush with a slim angled neck, contoured-fit bristles and ultra high speed bristle speed for greater plaque removal in hard to reach areas. Plus, Sonicare is the #1 personally used and recommended brand by U. S. dental professionals.

Building better health into every Sonicare.
The mouth is the gateway to your body. It is increasingly being identified as a vulnerable entry point for bacteria associated with serious medical conditions. Evidence also continues to emerge that shows a link between gum disease and a variety of systemic conditions, including diabetes, heart attack and stroke, and the occurrence of pre-term low birth weight babies. So it's essential that when you think of total body health you include your mouth by focusing on gum disease prevention.

Philips Oral Healthcare is dedicated to developing innovations that result in superior oral health and, therefore, can help improve and maintain overall health.

About Sonicare's Patented Technology and Custom Care System
Sonicare's unique patented combination of high speed bristle motion with extra wide sweeping motion creates effective, yet gentle dynamic fluid cleaning action. So you get superior plaque removal, especially in hard-to-reach areas, deep between teeth and below the gumline. In fact, this technology generates 31,000 bristle sweeps per minute, and laboratory studies show that it removes harmful plaque bacteria up to four millimeters beyond the bristle tips -- even below the gum-line. With the Sonicare 9500 in hand, you can count on naturally whiter teeth and healthier gums.

Sonicare -- Use it for your mouth, use it for your body
Diabetes: Studies have shown that people with diabetes are more susceptible to oral infections and gum disease than those without diabetes. The Sonicare toothbrush is proven to reduce gingivitis, contributing to better oral health and, therefore, better overall health.

Cardiovascular: People with severe gum disease may have up to double the risk of stroke or heart attack. And Sonicare is clinically proven to reduce plaque, the root cause of gum disease, making Sonicare an important part of a healthy lifestyle.

Pre-term low birth weight: When severe gum disease is present, some women are up to seven times more likely to deliver a pre-term low birth weight baby. And Sonicare toothbrushes are clinically proven to reduce gingivitis, so they can significantly improve oral health for better overall health.

2 out of 5 stars Buy the Sonicare FlexCare   July 8, 2008
Do yourself a favor and buy the Sonicare FlexCare. The newer FlexCare models are an upgrade without the screw-on design flaw of this Sonicare model. This model has a hideous design where the saliva and other brushing liquids seep down into the inner mechanisms of the hand piece and pool up in a really disgusting way and requires you to take it apart and clean off inner crevices made up of metal and plastic parts. The new design eliminates all that slew of slime. This brushing action is fantastic, just like the new one, but this design stinks...literally.


5 out of 5 stars greatest invention ever   July 3, 2008
I was an old school gal, using my manual toothbrush, and thought I was doing a decent job of keeping my teeth healthy. That was of course before I had a friend suggest that I use the Sonic toothbrush. I have only had my toothbrush for a few weeks, and let me say...it is the greatest invention for teeth! My teeth feel so clean and smooth, and I really feel like I get the food of the day out of my teeth. The frist time I used it I had popcorn kernels I had eaten from days ago come out!!! I was amazed! My gums look healthier and I could not be more pleased. I have read the other reviews and was concerned about several issues, such as the fungal growth or battery life. Since I've only had the toothbrush for a few weeks, I can't speak to that. I only hope I will get my money's worth and will be able to keep this brush well maintained for a few years. It's worth every penny in my opinion, since teeth are one of our most valuable assets.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent brush   July 3, 2008
We have been using the sonicare electric brush for several years, and have much less plaque, etc. The NEW brush that I bought is even better than the old one, which was about 7-8 years old. I highly recommend it.


4 out of 5 stars Product reliability   June 22, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

During the last six years I have used this product and it does an excellent job, but it's life is rather short for the cost. I am now on unit #4, the prior three failing in the same manner. The rubber seal for the on/off switch fails in approximately 12 - 14 months. Once it fails and water gets inside ... good by battery. I am not sure what the life expectancy should be, but for a system that exceeds $100 I would anticipate a longer life. I still rate it great for it's purpose and will continue to use it, but..........


5 out of 5 stars Produst Ezcllent - Product Delivery Questionable   June 19, 2008
Sonicare is great - used a 'spin brush' previously but Sonicare is head & shoulders (or maybe teeth & gums) above. Expect it will be worth the price ... hope it lasts several years (as others indicated is their reviews).
Had a problem (why? - unknown)with initial delivery. UPS said they tried to deliver it but the customer refused delivery - but I DIDN'T ... UPS never came to the house. SO UPS sent it back. It was a b-day gift and a normal reorder wouldn't have gotten to me on time. When I explained the problem and that the initial order was made in plenty of time for 5-9 day delivery, Amazon was very kind and sent another Sonicare Next Day Delivery. EXCELLENT PRODUCT - EXCELLENT SERVICE,
