Bitvae R2 Rotating Electric Toothbrush

This is a solid product, just as good as the main brand products and much less expensive. I switched from a vibrating electric brush and this rotating brush is so much better. My gums love it! It has a 2 minute timer, indicates 15 second intervals, has replacement heads, and several speeds. It charges by USB and carries a charge for a long time, so is great to travel with. This is an excellent product.

The speed selection is perfect. Works amazing (day 4). Nice case! And plenty of spare brushes! For the price you can’t beat it. Leaves teeth feeling like they are polished

Recommend

My dentist recommended using an electric toothbrush and she recommended the Oral B iO but to be honest I can’t afford to pay that much for a toothbrush and after reading a few reviews I decided to look at other options. I came across this tooth brush and thought for the price and reviews I’d give it a shot and have not been disappointed, I even purchased a second for my partner. I charged it once I got it and haven’t had to charge it yet and it’s been about a month so the battery life is great so far. I like that vibrates to let you know to switch sides and turns off automatically after two minutes is up.
Now I will say it’s messy when you brush 😅 but other than that I like it.

It is a no frills electric toothbrush and it does what it has to do, the extra heads help a lot to save money in replacement heads, and the timer works great to remember to change the quadrant

12/15/23 Original Product Review (in case I return for updates).

THE BASICS

12/13/23 Found the Bitvae R2 Rotating Electric Toothbrush in Pink on Amazon and Placed Order.
12/14/23 Received the product late this evening, securely packaged and undamaged. The pink hue is true to its image color, and I like it despite not being a “pink person.”

TLDR

This morning, I brushed my teeth for the first time in two years without over- or under-brushing, sensitivity and pain-free, and without feeling like my teeth were shifting.

THE FULL STORY

Let me explain: In 2021, I got into a major cycling accident that changed a lot of my daily routine I took for granted more difficult. After going over my handlebars, I primarily landed on my mandible with my maxilla taking a hard blow, too. My chin bounced twice on the ground (only for my lower jaw to pop back) before my face (and the rest of me) slid on the concrete to a stop. My top row of teeth, well, the only way I know how to put it is that they immediately felt like they had slumped forward in my face (and they had).

After a bit of dampened sound and ear-ringing, bright lights and loud, bothersome noises, not to mention the blood pouring from my nose, face, mouth, and wounds, I was treated (probably insufficiently) at the ER and headed to a local dentist. From the general feeling of skidding my lower teeth and lip on the pavement and having my head jolted enough that each front top tooth looked like someone had crushed ice in a blender and left it sitting in its container, I knew things were going to be bad.

THE CONSEQUENCES

Not only had the long and painful, but effective process of moving my jaw forward by an orthodontist been completely undermined, but all six top front teeth were, indeed, crushed. The palatine process of my maxilla (soft palate) had a thin, but long crack running back through it, and the other more superficial parts of my maxilla that surrounded my sinuses — tiny fractures ran throughout.

WHY OTHER TOOTHBRUSHES WEREN’T WORKING

Since then, tons of anesthesia, twelve surgeries, lots of drilling, filing, and testing, irritating crown fitting, teeth shifting, nerve pain and cold sensitivity…things haven’t been the same. Try as I might, what used to be a simple, quick everyday task had become frustrating.

I’ve always believed I shouldn’t let the little things get to me. But often, it’s exactly the little things that get to you, because they’re not just little things. They’re habitual. They’re routine. Across the span of your life, they’re actually really big things. How you approach your health — including your teeth — is one of those things.

I’ve tried extra soft and soft manual toothbrushes, different brands, returned to my original Colgate; I tried using the Burst toothbrush and a similar “sonic” variety that my husband uses; different toothpastes; mouthwashes; flossing methods and flossers; coconut oil pulling; everything I knew to do before and that could be done or that recently came out…whatever friends and family recommended. In two years, I’ve not once felt like my teeth were fully cleaned or, if picked, prodded, and scrubbed well, fully stable.

THE BITVAE

Nothing has worked like this toothbrush. Today, my teeth feel clean, but my gums aren’t sensitive, swollen, or bleeding from my being excessive thoroughness and over-brushing. And I’ve only tried the “Clean” setting.

The timer feature in the Bitvae was a smidge startling because, eager to try it, I overlooked the manual details and was unaware that there was one lol. Let’s just say it’s obvious. But, if you know to expect it, it’s brief and distinct — a slightly different buzz that cues you to move on and kinda’ propels you to, which (having OCD tendencies) I appreciate. And while I wouldn’t say the Bitvae is quiet, it’s certainly no louder than any of the other battery-operated competitors I’ve tried. (Because of the accident’s damage to my ears, it honestly sounded a little like a quiet light saber at times. Weird, nerdy Star Wars reference, I know, but I’m just calling it like I…heard it.)

As un-irritated as my gums feel, they also feel well-massaged. The tissue looks and feels clean and bright, without feeling or showing any signs of inflammation or agitation. From the front of my crowns to the crevices behind my molars and all in between, my enamel is evenly brushed and fresh. The Bitvae’s brush head was small enough to clean all around without knocking about or hitting other teeth. Meanwhile its grip, heavy in my hand, was sturdy to hold, but not burdensome in any way. It was very easy to maneuver.

My breath smells and tastes better (un-tinged by the last of accidentally brushing something too hard and more so than if I tried “brushing gently”), if that makes sense. And the Bitvae, having come charged, remains charged, worked smoothly — better than I anticipated.

I rarely (IF EVER) give products a five-star rating. I’m a meticulous person who, in herself and the products she purchases, almost always finds room for improvement. But, I’m truly satisfied with this purchase, which cost me less than half of what a similar Oral B would (when the Oral B is on sale for 50%+ off) have.

CONCLUSION

Buy it. I don’t like throwing away money, and I know all of this sounds dramatic, but an accident like the one I had is nothing short of that. Meanwhile, the Bitvae comes with a year’s warranty, which is reassuring as a customer and as someone whose dental health has been affected for life. The return of a well-cared-for mouth with the ease I once had of “just brushing my teeth” pre-accident is amazing. To have brushing my teeth — which had become a process in itself to grapple with every morning — return to a brief, but effective routine is such a relief. I’m grateful for the bit of time I’ll get back every day. I hope you’ll take the opportunity to enjoy it, too!

Es el primer cepillo eléctrico que tengo y con grandes resultados. Lo compre aún precio súper accesible en comparación a otras marcas ya conocidas por lo que mis espectadoras no eran muy altas, sin embargo quede sorprendido por la calidad y funcionamiento de este cepillo a demás de qué trae incluidos 8 cabezales por lo que no me preocuparé en comprar nuevos en un buen rato. Las cerdas de los cabezales son ideales ya que para mi gusto son de una dureza media y al cepillar no lastiman las encias, la pila dura mucho y se cargar muy rápido, trae 5 modos de cepillado y realmente no había sentido una limpieza tan agradable como con este cepillo, solo es cosa de ir agarrándole el modo para volverte un experto en su uso. Estoy esperando a baje de precio otra vez para adquirir uno para mi hijo
