Nap Warden, who commented, “Wow…that is quite a toothbrush! I use the Oral B electric,” is the winner of the Ultreo giveaway!” Thanks to everyone who entered.
Last year wasn’t a banner dental care year for me, so I was intrigued when approached with the chance to review the new Ultreo ultrasound toothbrush, which takes dental care to a whole new level.
Ultreo is the first major innovative development in toothbrushes in more than a decade. It is the only power toothbrush to combine ultrasound waveguide technology with precisely tuned sonic bristle action. Developed at the University of Washington, it’s basically the bad ass of toothbrushes.
Ultreo features:
- an auto shut off timer
- a brushing interval signal that beeps every 3 seconds to help you clean each area of your mouth equally
- a compact charger base and wall plug
- a battery charge status indicator that tells the level of battery power (when fully charged you can use Ultreo for up to 28 brushings without additional charging)
- the ability to remove up to 95% of plaque from hard-to-reach places in one minute. It is also clinically proven to be safe and gentle for everyday use on gums, natural tooth surfaces, and dental work
Ultreo retails for $169.99 and can be purchased from participating dental offices, Ultreo’s website, and online retailers such as Drugstore.com, Amazon.com, and The Sharper Image. Additional brush heads can be purchased so that more than one person can share the toothbrush base.
This is not a product I would normally go out and buy for myself, but the Ultreo is definitely an investment in dental care. My teeth felt considerably cleaner after brushing with the Ultreo, and I’d compare it to that “just professionally cleaned” type feeling you get after an appointment with your dental hygenist.
If you’d like to own the equivalent of the Rolls Royce of toothbrushes, here’s your chance. Just leave a comment telling me what brand of toothbrush you use. I’ll select a random winner from all eligible comments (U.S. and Canadian residents only) now through midnight Sunday, July 20. For two chances, just blog about this giveaway and hook me up with a link.
Looks like the cadillac of all toothbrushes! Thanks for the opp to win one! I currently am an Oral-B girl, but an upgrade never hurt anyone…..thanks!

right now, using CVS store brand toothbrushes for the whole family (they were on clearance) but in the past have used Oral-B & Colgate. Basically I buy/use whatever happens to be on sale at the time I need them.
Stop by my place…I’ve got something for you!
Mrs. Schmittys last blog post..Busted!

Kathy T.s last blog post..Happy 4th of July
I use oral-b, but also shop around, buying brushes that are on sale, that I also have a coupon for. I’m not very picky; I usually choose by color.
I use what ever the dentist gives me, right now it is an OralB,so this would be absolutely wonderful to win.
I use the free toothbrush I get from the dentist. I also choose by color (purple or pink). I think we’ve got oral b right now. Thanks for the chance to win!
store brand toothbrush. really interested to see if a brush makes a difference!
Mary Jenkinss last blog post..Happy Fourth! and the giveaway continues..
Oral-b. The ones you get when you go to the dentist for a check up. My teeth wouldn’t know what hit them if I had this! Thanks for the contest!
Reach toothbrush. Would love to try that baby!
I use Target brand soft toothbrushes as I have heard that med or hard can actually damage your enamel
Oral-b, it was a free one from my dentist.
oral b I hope I win!!!!!
Happy fourth
Amandas last blog post..Today Is Another Day!

Jumpin’ On My Last Nerves last blog post..4th Fireworks Recap
Colgate – We bought them in a huge pack at Sam’s.
Thanks!
I use Colgate brand toothbrushes- the Ultreo toothbrush sounds SO nice! Thank you for the chance to win it!
Reach or Oral-B, but mine has to be compact and medium. I usually stand there a long time looking! This one sounds great!
Oral-B. I have a Sonicare but the replacement heads cost a fortune.
Sonicare, Marie is right the replacement heads do cost a fortune. This one sounds really nice.
Oral-B! 😉
Jackies last blog post..You Ain’t Nothin’ But A Hound Dog….
I use the CVS brand or what I get from the dentist. I’d love to try an electric one though! They have a nice, comprehensive website.
I use Oral B usually. Right now I have a Pulsar Oral B.
Usually I use Oral-B toothbrush. I have also posted a link to your giveaway on my blog. Check it out here: http://everythingupclose.blogspot.com/2008/07/giveaways.html
I need this. I use a… shhh…. GENERIC toothbrush. Don’t tell anyone, ok?
DBNs last blog post..Happy Fourth of July!
I am currently using a Colgate toothbrush. My last trip to the Dentist could have gone better. The Ultreo would make me and my Dentist happy!
I use an Oral-B. Thank you for the giveaway! Kristi
As a proud graduate of Colgate University, I’ve used Colgate toothbrushes for years.
Bluegrass Mamas last blog post..Happy Independence Day!
Hubby and I are both currently using battery-powered Oral B toothbrushes. Even though they were only $5 and certainly not as high-tech as the one you’re offering up, my teeth do feel cleaning with the vibration.
Ellens last blog post..Weekend 1: Sacramento
I use the toothbushes from the dentist. He gives out the Reach toothbrush.
I would chunk my REACH toothbrush for this baby in a heartbeat! Years of taking medication have taken a toll on my dental care, causing sensitive teeth and gums. It would be great to see if this Ultreo Ultasound Toothbrush would work for me 🙂
I’ve blogged about your contest and provided a link. Please hook me up with an extra entry. Thanks!
Kalis last blog post..Ultreo Ultrasound Toothbrush – 07/20/08
The kids use a tooth brush that plays there favorite song. Bought them at Wal-Mart have no idea the brand. I am currently using a reach tooth brush however I use what ever I can find in a firm tooth brush. The soft (which are available most) and medium just don’t clean my teeth good enough for me. I have tried many brands but unless it was firm my teeth just looked dingy after a few weeks and don’t feel as clean as with a firm tooth brush. This looks like a real high tech tooth brush that should do the trick. Thank you for the opportunity to enter to win such a nice tooth brush.

Rhonda Martins last blog post..Reading anyone?
Oh my, this giveaway has me written all over it! I’m using Oral-B currently, but am seriously coveting this amazing brush that you’re giving away. Here’s hoping!
Angies last blog post..Rollin’ on the River
I’ll blog it too.
What do I use? Whatever the dentist gives me, followed by whatever’s on sale at the store when I need a replacement! Right now I’m using a Colgate toothbrush that I rather like.
I use oral B right now, but it changes everytime i go to the store for a new one
I use Oral B… Thanks!
toothbrush brand? whatever is on sale. so sad.
Wow…that is quite a toothbrush! I use the Oral B electric.
Nap Wardens last blog post..Don’t Count Out the Old Broads!
Let’s see write now I’m a Oral-B toothbrush gal. Thanks for the chance to upgrade though!
Yes, I use a standard ole manual toothbrush colegate. I really like those 360 degree ones. But, a fancy one would sure be cool to use. I’ve always thought they just cost way too much.
This toothbrush looks amazing and I’ve never been all that impressed by the others (Sonicare, et al). But the timing part put me over the edge.
I’m currently using Crest toothbrushes (soft, of course). It works, I suppose, but I drink a lot of coffee so I should upgrade. Plus, I have a poor dental plan so it might be nice to have this extra care.
Thanks for the chance to win! You rock.
This thing looks super cool. I have no idea what brand my toothbrush is. Oral B maybe??
(The shoes are posted!!!)
Amys last blog post..You Wanna Know How Bad It Is?

I use an old fashioned manual toothbrush but I would benefit a lot from the Ultreo Ultrasound toothbrush. Please enter me in the giveaway.
I just have a plain ol’ Oral-B that I get free at the dentist. I sure would like a free fancy one though!

Oral-B (or whatever is on sale)

Oral-B – I have both their electric, and their manual. For some reason, using the electric when I was pregnant made me ill, so I started using my manual one again, and now I trade off.
Channahs last blog post..Hopefully we’re moving.
Walgreens brand.
I’m currently using Oral-B, but I would love to use Ultreo! Thanks for the great giveaway!
I’m a stickler for changing our toothbrushes every 2-3 months, so I but whatever’s on sale. My favorite is Oral B. We can’t afford to be picky when each family member is going through 4-6/yr.
I’m using crest. this would be great
I use a Crest toothbrush from Dollar General…looks like I need to get with the times!
I use the free Oral B that the dentist gives me. Oh, I would really love to try this one though. Thanks for the chance.

I use an ordinary, manual Oral-B toothbrush, but I like yours better!
I use a regular old Oral B also. The Ultreo is a dream brush! I moved out of state for 2 years and refused to go to a new dentist; next week is my first appt in two years. I sure wish I could win this for follow up care.
