Oral-B Dual Clean Replacement Brush Head (3 ct.) Review. Oral-B Dual Clean replacement electric toothbrush head features two moving brush heads in one, so it provides twice the cleaning action, removing more plaque than a regular manual brush....
"More bristles, more buzzzzzz." 2005-05-27
By Joseph Ekaitis (Southern California)
One of these brush heads came with my Oral B 980TX power toothbrush. I liked it so much more than the regular FlexiSoft head that I immediately ordered the 3-pack.
The extra bristles with their side-to-side oscillation add more oomph to the Oral B's tingle-inducing cleaning action. I can feel it all the way to the base of each tooth. When I rinse, I see more loosened debris swirling down the drain. I finish my morning brushing with a hydrogen peroxide rinse, and, man oh man, does it get foamy, an indication of freshly cleaned dental and gum surfaces.
The price is already a bargain but with additional available discounts like Free Super Saver Shipping, it's a steal.
"worth it" 2005-02-15

I was leery of the shape at first, but after one brushing, I'm hooked! The teeth are much slicker compared to the standard round head after brushing. The head is bigger, but the round part can reach hard spots.
"This Made My Great Toothbrush Incredible" 2006-05-05
By Greg Robertson (Historic Quincy, MA)
When I first switched from a standard toothbrush to Braun's power rotating brush head, I was surprised at how much cleaner it made my teeth feel. Then I tried this DualAction brush head, and loved it even more in about 3 seconds. Still do. In fact, I recently ordered 5 of the 3-packs all at once because I've had trouble finding them in stores and I was afraid they would stop making them or change the design.
Now, it is true that at first it feels like you've put one of those power floor scrubbers in your mouth, in that it feels kinda big and industrial until you're used to it. But boy does it make your teeth and gums feel cleaner. And I was accustomed to the different feel by the end of my first brushing with it. If that sounds potentially troubling to you, I recommend just buying a one-pack the first time. It's not cheap, after all, but for me it's been well worth the cost. Do try it.
I should also note that when I mentioned to my dentist that I've been using this, she referred to it as a "business killer." I take that as another good sign.

I use the Oral-B Toothbrush and this head usually costs a lot more. This larger head makes cleaning your teeth easier and more thoroughly. A great price and I hope to see more like this.
"A great addition to the Braun brush head selection" 2006-04-23
By David B. Spalding (Chromejob-dot-com)
I got one of these with my last Braun replacement, a 7850DLX set. At first, this veteran user of the EB17 Flexisoft head was a bit skeptical. But after a few days use, I have a new favorite.
The dual-brush head is a bit bigger than the traditional round head. The EB17 is still great for getting in tight spots, particularly the backs of the rearmost molars. But this head is great for quickie between meal cleaning, and as a bonus is pretty good at brushing off my tongue.
This fits most of the current line of Braun brushes, but check your manual to be sure. Since EB17s usually run about $5 per head in 3-, 4-, and 6-packs, finding the EB417 about the same price is a relief. You really DO want to replace heads every few months, after the outer blue bristles fade half-way down.
