Oral-B Crossaction Power Trip Report
So I lost my toothbrush (how does this happen?) a few days ago and was at the store yesterday and picked up a tooth brush and some crest whitening gel toothpaste. I am in the checkout line after getting all my groceries and I see that there is a new weird electric toothbrush that looks like something an idea they stole from the Mach3 Power razors. Its usually $7 but its a $1 off with Albertsons Club so I toss down my other toothbrush and pick this one up.
It looks like this...  The top round part rotates while the bottom bristles just vibrate back and forth. So I get home and crack it open and first notice when I begin to use it that brush head is small compared to what I am used too. It cleans really good but is pretty uncomfortable, although I have never used an electric toothbrush before so maybe they are all like that? Overall if you have a hard time brushing well and are pretty cheap I'd buy it, but a nice $4-5 normal toothbrush would probably do a much better job and feel better if you were a diligent brusher.

Re: Oral-B Crossaction Power Trip Report
I prefer the regular hand-powered cross-action. I've been using them for a few years. I think I brushed too hard for several years, so i have some gum recession now....
But yeah, good toothbrushes

Sponger, have you had results from the whitening toothpaste? I have this and havent seen results with it, nor from any other whitening toothpaste.
