    I received this toothbrush as part of the the product review club, and I really liked this toothbrush! For people who like a harder toothbrush you might want to try a different one, but as I prefer mine a bit softer this was perfect for me. It made my mouth feel clean. The bristles are easy to clean as well! I would recommend it!

    I received this toothbrush as part of the Product Review Club and for a manual toothbrush, it;'s not bad. I liked the rubber gum massagers, it felt like it cleaned okay and the bristles are a bit to soft for me, but that's just my personal preference. It has a nice shape and it's easy to hold.
    Overall, it's a great manual toothbrush, but I still prefer my electric toothbrush. I feel that cleans a bit better.

    I received this as part of the Product Review Club. I liked it! I have somewhat sensitive teeth but this didn't hurt to use, on my teeth or my gums. The bristles weren't uncomfortable in any way. It felt like it worked its way into all the nooks and crannies of my teeth and mouth and left me feeling like it did its job well.

    When I first look at the toothbrush, I was a bit impress. It looked really effective. It is. Honestly, my mouth is super clean after I use it. BUT, it's so uncomfortable. The head is so big. I would buy it again because of that.

    I cant say a single negative thing about this toothpaste. The minute I began using this toothbrush I liked it! I like the way all the bristles felt and I found the tongue and cheek cleaner worked well and love having that as a feature of the tooth brush. While using this tooth brush I felt it got to all the areas I needed it to and kept my teeth feeling clean. I would definitely recommend it as well as repurchase it again!

    This toothbrush was amazing! At first, I was a little off put by the rubber bristles on the sides, I thought they felt a little weird, but once I got used to that, I was quite impressed by the effectiveness of this toothbrush.

    I am currently pregnant, and have been having issues with my gums (all the acid from throwing up and usual inflamed gums) were giving me a hassle. After using this toothbrush for only a week, I'm finding that my gums have regained their strength and form (the bottom gums were starting to pull away from my teeth). I feel as though the bristles have helped stimulate my gums and reduce what may have been gingivitis and plaque forming along the gum line.

    I have tried quite a lot of toothbrushes, I usually wait until they go on sale for $1.00 and pick up whichever one fits that bill, but I may have to reconsider the quality of toothbrush I'm using now that I've tried this one!

    I would definitely recommend this product to a friend, and will be buying my husband one for himself at this week's grocery shop!

    Note that this item was provided to this tester at no cost through the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

    The Oral-B CrossAction Pro-Health ($3.99 at FutureShop Online) claims to provide the user with 7 oral care benefits in one brush. Of course, one would have to have before-and-after visits to a dental practitioner in order to measure the effectiveness of one of these claims (removes hard to reach plaque) whereas the other 6 claims can be confirmed or denied with some level of accuracy on one's own. I myself have been an Oral-B CrossAction toothbrush user for many years now, and therefore I feel qualified to compare the two: both feature the same handle length (approximately 18 cm from end to end, including brush head) along with the same contoured-grip dimensions (the rubberized applications on the standard CrossAction felt a little more soft and gummy than did the CrossAction Pro-Health), nonetheless, both toothbrushes provided excellent grip, even when used with wet hands or hands covered in toothpaste-drippings. Visual finish of the brush handles are of a different pattern, with the standard CrossAction brush featuring a solid white plastic handle, and with the CrossAction Pro-Health showing a transparent-blue finish with sparkle-or-glitter-like specks embedded within (the pattern resembles the Crest Pro-Health line of toothpaste). Where both brushes differ significantly is in the dimensions of the brush head: the CrossAction Pro-Health is 13 mm wide at its widest point, which is 3 mm up from the standard CrossAction (10 mm). In addition, the bristles are taller (once again, 13 mm tall at its highest point (including brush head), which is 3 mm up from the standard CrossAction (10 mm)). The added length of the bristles did not bother me too badly (yes, getting the toothbrush between the upper and lower back-teeth required more effort to open one's jaw wider) however the contoured grip ensured that the brush would not slip and torque out of the way when doing so. Where my harshest critique comes into play is in the use of rubberized applications on the brush head: on each side of the brush head are four rubberized rods of 2 mm each in width and 9 mm each in length. These rods are intended to support the claim 'stimulates gums', however, I would never normally want my gums 'stimulated' nor do a see a benefit in doing so. The same thing goes for 5 small dimple pockets under these rubberized rods on each side of the brush head towards the edge: instead of stimulating gums, the edges in the rubberized plastic created by these dimple pockets actually irritated the inside of my mouth considerably when brushing, which I consider far from 'stimulating'. Add to this a thin patterned rubberized tongue-scraper at the back of the brush head intended to support the claim 'removes odor-causing tongue germs', which worked fine during brushing, however, all of these rubberized applications often rub up against my teeth when brushing, causing a squeaking sensation which is FAR from pleasant.

    The layout and pattern of the multi-length bristles does in fact support the claim 'cleans along the gum line' which would in-turn support the claim 'reduces gingivitis', however, those rubberized applications once again get in the way of the brush excelling in this department (my standard CrossAction does not have rubberized applications, and hence provides better access to my gum line).

    The bristles, even though in the 'soft' variety, were in fact firmer than those of the standard CrossAction, which would lead me to believe that the brush probably 'polishes away surface stains' as the claim states just as well as other toothbrushes in its category, all while being soft enough to support the claim 'gentle on enamel'.

    Throughout the test, already being a fan of the Oral-B CrossAction line of toothbrushes, my reoccurring thought was to take a pair of needle-nose pliers to the Oral-B CrossAction Pro-Health and remove all applications of rubberized plastic, creating a firmer-bristle version of the standard Oral-B CrossAction (if I were to do so, this would be done after this test cycle.)

    At $3.99, the Oral-B CrossAction Pro-Health toothbrush is in my opinion not worth the added dollar for the rubberized plastic applications which do nothing but hinder the tooth brushing process.

    Loved this toothbrush! I always have a difficult time finding the right toothbrush but this one was perfect. It reached all areas of my mouth without irritating my gums.

    I'm in love with this toothbrush!! I received it as part of the Product Review Club and let me tell you, I'm never experienced brushing quite like this! I love the little rubbers that brush the gums along with the teeth! That by far was my favourite thing about the brush. It's completely effective at leaving my teeth so clean feeling and a perfect size (not too big a brush). I didn't make much use of the tongue and cheek scrubber on the back since I usually just use the bristles for that. I will definitely 100% buy this product again! I've found my new fave toothbrush and it's not even electrical! :)

    I received this toothbrush from ChickAdvisor and Oral-B to try - and I'm so glad that I was selected.

    This toothbrush is wonderful compared to ordinary manual toothbrushes- the larger size takes some getting used to, but it also allows you to target more tooth area. The soft bristles are great and gentle, and the gum massagers are very effective and soothing.

    I cannot get over how clean my teeth feel, as well as how this toothbrush effectively cleans those hard-to-reach area. I absolutely adore the gum massagers too!!!

    I highly recommend this product and will DEFINITELY be buying again.

    Thank you so much Chick Advisor and Oral-B!!! xoxo.
