Sonicare Testimonial.
Apr 4th, 2009 by admin
My story: At the DDS last Nov, the hygienist asked me when-was-the-last-time I visited a dentist? (It had been 1 year - I floss religiously & have lots of old recession from brushing too hard.) It took 2 X 1-hour sessions to clean them via root planing (under Novocain) - it was something like $1200, Thank God for insurance. Dr S. says “with kids, it’s cavities - with us, it’s periodontal disease.” The hygienist did it with a prophy jet, which uses air to push the gums out of the way, so the calculus can be scraped off. (Editor’s note: The professional cleaning of teeth is sometimes referred to as prophylaxis (or prophy for short). It’s a Greek word which means “to prevent beforehand” - in this case, it helps prevent gum disease.) Without Novocain, it feels like it’s cutting your gums - but amazingly, there’s no bleeding at all and they feel great afterward. I think the gums “un-receded” some after the treatment. I went back a month later - and already had more buildup everywhere. Shelly spent another 40 minutes cleaning them. She told me to get a SONICARE FLEXCARE and said to come back in 4 months. Today - I went back. Unfortunately, it was a different hygienist who thought I was just a routine cleaning. She remarked, “You’re doing a good job - your teeth are very clean.” Then a few minutes later, “I can hardly find anything to clean - your teeth are impeccable - you have such pretty teeth.” Nobody has EVER said anything close to that, to me - and she’s only 33 or so, not seeing-impaired. Then Dr S. looked at them and said, “they look great. See you in 6 months.” (Dr S. is the best dentist (and mentor to his hygienists), with the highest standards - if he said it, I believe it!) The Sonicare Flexcare is like having your own dental tool! It’s so gentle to your gums and gets every crack & crevice, and does just as good a job on the back teeth as the front. It takes at least 10 minutes to do a thorough job and my teeth/gums feel wonderful after. I got mine (also for Kelly & Brian) for about $100-110 each - it’s the Phillips Sonicare Flexcare RS940 with UV Sanitizer.
