It does a good job as she hasn't complained of any tartar buildup since I've started using it! It has handy timing built in to let you know you're done with each quadrant of your teeth. It also let's you know if you're brushing (pressing) too hard. However, I will say, the little vibrations the thing emits are barely noticeable, but overall, the brush is still very nice. Also, you can use a generic brush head replacement on this just fine. Don't use the Phillips brand - way too expensive. The generic brand is not a perfect fit (the hole is not the same shape as the Phillips brush holder) however, the friction/tension still holds the brush in place just fine and works perfectly for a fraction of the cost. **** Update!! ****** I just had the strangest experience with this toothbrush that I think could explain some things to other people. After about a year and a half, my toothbrush just suddenly stopped working! I thought it was the charger, maybe the battery, maybe water got inside? I was just about to give up when my husband said he had the same thing happen to his (he has the same brush) and when he put a new brush head on it started working again. Believe it or not, that actually WORKED! I did a little research and found out that this brush has some kind of RFID sync with the smart brush head to be able to tell you when to replace it. However, I assume that my after market cheapie brush heads that I use don't offer that and somehow it messes up the brush handle and instead of an indicator light turning on, it just shuts off. But the second I got a new brush head on, it came back on, just as strong as ever! I know it was the new brush head, because I had taken the old one off and back on while I was trying to troubleshoot the brush and nothing changed. It only started working again when I put a new one on. Hope that helps someone else! Review: Es gibt Besseres auf dem Markt - Die Bürste hat einen nicht passenden Stecker, gut das ich noch von der Vorgängerbürste den Stecker zum aufladen hatte. Sie hat auch nur ein Programm. Das Putzergebnis ist gut. ## Features - Rechargeable ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B078GVDB19 | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Brand | PHILIPS | | Bristle Material | Nylon | | Colour | White | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 30,542 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00075020069948 | | Handle Material | Plastic | | Included Components | Charger | | Item Dimensions | 6.5 x 17.3 x 23.7 Centimeters | | Item Firmness Description | Hard | | Item Weight | 0.01 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Philips | | Manufacturer Part Number | HX6817/01 | | Material Features | Sustainable | | Model Name | HX6817/01 | | Model number | HX6817/01 | | Number Of Pieces | 1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of settings | 2 | | Operation Mode | Automatic | | Other Special Features of the Product | Rechargeable | | Package Type Name | Box | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Special Feature | Rechargeable | | Target Audience | Unisex-Adults | | UPC | 099778599892 368817444883 075020069948 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Philips - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Special Feature:** Rechargeable - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Item Firmness Description:** Hard - **Colour:** White - **Material Feature:** Sustainable - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Net Quantity:** 1.0 count - **Included Components:** Charger ## Images ![Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 4100 Plaque Control, Rechargeable electric toothbrush with pressure sensor, White Mint HX6817/01 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71bkQ5fYE3L.jpg) ![Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 4100 Plaque Control, Rechargeable electric toothbrush with pressure sensor, White Mint HX6817/01 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/512GoySj5UL.jpg) ![Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 4100 Plaque Control, Rechargeable electric toothbrush with pressure sensor, White Mint HX6817/01 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71aw3rNUj4L.jpg) ![Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 4100 Plaque Control, Rechargeable electric toothbrush with pressure sensor, White Mint HX6817/01 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qG450XlFL.jpg) ![Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 4100 Plaque Control, Rechargeable electric toothbrush with pressure sensor, White Mint HX6817/01 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61+VWdeAB7L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it develop mold in the area where the brush head connects to the handle? My very old one does.** A: Yup. Mold is a huge problem for mine; I've owned several versions. I found it was preventable by taking the brush head off to dry and clean it and the connector area after each use; but then, within a couple months, the strain of taking it off and on again so frequently seemed to break something in the base, and it no longer vibrated well. I ended up switching to a cheap knockoff from overseas, that nonetheless doesn't have the connection gap, and works great. Only problem now is I have no idea how I'll get replacement heads that fit... **Q: What is the difference between this toothbrush and the sonice 2 series?** A: The 4100 has lithium battery, the series 2 uses NiMH. 4100 can be put on charger daily. Series 2 needs to have a drained battery before recharging. The 4100 also has a pressure sensor. I had the same question, and this is the response I got from Phillips. **Q: Is this charger compatible with voltage range of 220V?** A: Hello! Yes, you shouldn't have any issues charging this toothbrush on your travels as long as the voltage of the outlet you're plugging into doesn't exceed 220V. The voltage for this particular Sonicare is 100-220V. **Q: I purchased this in October and it's already broken. The head won't stay in place in the handle.What's the process of getting a replacement or refund?** A: I’m confused why so many people leave comments expecting amazon to monitor the comment section of every product- which is impossible- or - they ask questions not knowing how customer service works. Contact the company (Amazon), tell them there is a problem and return it. Amazon’s customer service number is on this website, or google “Amazon customer service number” and it shows up…then call it. Or use the help feature at the bottom of the page, click “need more help” and chose “chat with associate”. Unless you’ve been in a cave since 1990, this shouldn’t be this difficult. I hope this helps some people out, however firmly worded. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great *by A***R on 5 January 2020* Was recommended by my dentist for best cleaning.
