It states that the brush head has indicators to show when it is time to replace it. How is it going to appear when it is time to replace.

The colored brushes lose the color. They are awesome and the box tells you how to tell the brushes when they need to be replaced.

According to the package I have when the indicator brushes fade white to to the halfway point it is time to change. I believe that the tallest outside blue brushes are the indicator brushes. They have just started on mine & are not down to the halfway point yet, but that indicates to me that these are the bristles they are referring to. You could contact www.oralb.com to make sure this is correct. But I feel confident that it is. Each brush is supposed to last 3 months with regular use before replacement is needed.

I have not had to replace the brushes as yet. I would think Amazon would sell the proper brushes.

I don't think so. Please read your previous package for the correct brush head #.

Mine had two brushes with it. I replaced a worn out one with it and like it much better. The old one was fancier but this one does just fine. Highly recommend.

I haven't used this product yet. Can't be helpful. Sorry. But it's good to know that sometimes the brush falls off. I'm not sure I need this, so depending on what others say, maybe I'll sell it unused.

There is one brush head. You need to order an additional package of replacement heads if you want more than one!

You will see when you use it that the paint has a very thin consistency. Brush marks should disappear.

No there is no physical or visual indicator to let you know when it needs changing. I have had mine a few years now and I am just assuming that when the time comes for it to need replaced I will start seeing sediment in the water. I will replace it at that time.

Hello RalphieI have been replacing the brush head every 3 to 4 months.When I brush I do not press too hard so I guess mine do last a little longer than the recommended 3 months.Also, when I'm done brushing, I rinse the tooth brush thoroughly, making sure there aren't any residual toothpaste left in the bristles. This should also contribute to the whole thing lasting longer and being more hygienic.

Just bought it for my daughter for Christmas. I do not know yet when they have to be replaced. I assume 3-6 months like any other toothbrush.

The 2 minute timer works just fine. In fact it also serves as a reminder to change to a new brush head, because when the head gets worn the timer gets weak and then doesn't activate at all until you put on a new head.

About a month. When the blue bristles turn half white it's time for a New brush head.

I don't know if they sell replacement heads. Most people just go ahead and buy a brand-new brush

I don't know. Just replaced and I don't know how long it will last either. But sure looks better than before.

As Rob responded, you should have a timer that lets you know you have brushed long enough unless you have an older model that doesn't have a timer. My first Oral B didn't have the timer.

I don't really know, but what I've read after some time the brush loses hair

The heads were not meant to be popped off and replaced in the Eseries. Doing so could cause problems. Some have been successful at it initially, but over time, problems develop and they find they can't use that method any more. Where they pop off the head into the magnetic part of the brush head, weakens, and the brush pops off while it's being used in the mouth. I personally wouldn't want that to happen to me. When people use products as they were not intended to be used, maybe it will be fine, but I don't want to take that kind of risk. Environmentally, you can recycle the brush head complete with the magnet attachment. Philips does make brushes that work as you describe. Just the head, goes into the base. Those toothbrushes do not last as long. I have had my Eseries for seven years and it is still going strong. The vibration is stronger than the other model I tried. It does a better job. It's worth paying more for Sonic brand brush heads that are meant to be on the toothbrush you use. Your entire unit lasts longer. It's stronger. The brand brush heads outperform the generics by up to double the time.
