Oral hygiene is an important part of our health and wellbeing, with many of us wanting to achieve a shining smile. However, while electric toothbrushes have become more advanced to help achieve this goal, many shoppers are put off by the hefty price tags. Thankfully for those ready to splurge on a new toothbrush, Amazon is currently holding its Prime Big Deal Days event , which is seeing many high-end toothbrushes getting hefty discounts to much more budget friendly prices. One of which is the Oral-B iO2 Electric Toothbrush , which has been given a massive 62 per cent discount. Normally retailing for £100, shoppers can now grab it for only £37.99 in the Prime Day sale.

In order to protect your gums, the toothbrush comes with an automatic pressure sensor which will flash red if used too hard. This toothbrush is also ideal for those who are new to using electric toothbrushes. Featuring a simple design, quiet sound and a long-lasting battery, this device will gently ease new users into the world of deeper cleaning. Along with three intensity levels, the device also comes with a two minutes timer that will buzz every 30 seconds. Along with the toothbrush, shoppers will also receive a refill head, a refill holder, a travel case and a charger. This is a UK two pin charger, but shoppers are warned that an adapter is not included with the purchase. For those who want a larger variety of cleaning modes, Amazon has also dropped the price of the Oral-B iO5 Electric Toothbrush . Dropped down from £280 to £84.99, this toothbrush comes with five cleaning modes and can be powered by the AI Oral-B app that tracks how you brush your teeth. Alternatively, Argos is selling the Ordo Sonic+ Electric Toothbrush for £60. With a battery life that is able to last over four weeks on a single charge, this toothbrush works hard to improve gum health and brighten your smile. Back to the Oral-B iO2 Electric Toothbrush , it currently boasts a 4.6 star rating from a whopping 91,000 ratings. On top of this, over 5,000 people bought the device in the last 30 days. One highly satisfied said: “Makes teeth feel much better than a manual, easy to use and has made a difference to my teeth. Battery lasts ages!” With a five-star reviewer adding: “I have been planning on buying an electric toothbrush and this seemed a good match to what I was looking for! The brushes are soft but effective and left my teeth feeling deeply clean! Long lasting battery and I’m so glad it comes with a travel case so I can just carry it around!” However, one shopper grumbled about their delivery, writing: “Ordered two both came with an American charger! I’m based in the UK and now I have to pay for an adapter, it doesn’t seem fair.” While another customer added: “I didn’t realise when I bought this that the ‘new shape’ of the stem meant that I’d need different profile brushes to those for my old Braun one, and which are dearer! I do, however, like the streamlined modern look of the new black one!” Despite this, a top reviewer praised: “As far as toothbrushes go, this one’s pretty savvy. Got this to replace an old one and the difference is insane, the power on it really makes a difference and personally, I find the buzzed timer really handy because I often think I’m brushing my teeth for a lot longer than I actually am. “Battery life is great. It also is sleekest looking electric toothbrush even compared to the newer models, not that it matters too much but I like the way it looks by the sink. I use the travel case all the time and share the base with my husband.” Shoppers can now save 62 per cent on the Oral-B iO2 Electric Toothbrush on Amazon.
