Philips Sonicare 4100

Powerful yet gentle, the Sonicare 4100 is a top pick for anyone prioritizing gum health alongside plaque removal. It's one of the two market-leading brands dentists and Reddit consistently recommend.

$40-$70
Pros

Why we recommend it

Philips Sonicare and Oral-B are the two brands that come up in every single thread — and the 4100 hits the sweet spot of effective cleaning, gum care, and long battery life without the premium price tag of higher-end models.
