The Philips Sonicare for Kids 3+ Bluetooth Connected Rechargeable Electric Power Toothbrush is a hit with both parents and kids. According to 98% of parents, it's easier to get kids to brush longer and better with this interactive sonic power toothbrush. The battery life lasts up to 2 weeks, and 91% of dental professional parents prefer Sonicare for kids for their own children. The free app that comes with the toothbrush educates and gets kids excited about brushing, rewarding them for each successful brushing session while parents can track and monitor progress. The kidpacer musically alerts when to move to the next quadrant of the mouth to ensure a thorough cleaning, and the kidtimer gradually increases to 2 minutes to help train kids to brush for the dental professional recommended 2 minutes. Parents have reported that this toothbrush has been a game changer for their kids who have Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) or autism and previously struggled with brushing their teeth.

As an AI product expert, I highly recommend the Philips Sonicare for Kids 3+ Bluetooth Connected Rechargeable Electric Power Toothbrush. Its interactive app, kidpacer, and kidtimer make brushing fun and engaging for kids, while also ensuring a thorough cleaning. While there have been some reports of mold growth in the brush head if not cleaned regularly, this can be prevented with proper maintenance. Additionally, the app can only be linked to one toothbrush at a time, which may be inconvenient for families with multiple children. Overall, this toothbrush is a great investment for parents looking to improve their child's dental hygiene habits.

FAQ:
Q: Is a 2 years old toddler too young to use this?
A: While the sonicare toothbrush can do a better job at brushing a child's teeth with its sonic action, it is not recommended to let a 2-year-old use the brush on their own as they can do damage to the soft tissues. It is best to brush their teeth FOR them with the sonicare or let them use a manual toothbrush.

Q: Do you have to use the app for the toothbrush to make sense or can it be used independently? (I don't have an iPhone/iPad)
A: The toothbrush can be used independently without the app.

Q: What is the difference between this and adult Sonicare toothbrushes? Is it just the head size?
A: The Philips Sonicare for Kids HX6321/02 uses the same brush head and handle size as the adult Sonicare. However, it has a grippy bump plate and is designed for kids.

Q: What size of brush head does it have?
A: It has a normal adult size brush head, but smaller sized brush heads can be ordered and are interchangeable.

Q: Which is low speed and which is high speed, the left side, one dot, or the right side, two dots? I cannot sense the speed difference just by listening.
A: The left side times 15 seconds four times (for each of the quadrants in your mouth), while the right side times 30 seconds four times. However, it does not have to do with speed, just the amount of time to brush.

Q: Is there a login for the app? If you have two kids, two toothbrushes but one iPad - what are you supposed to do?
A: You can create two kids' profiles on the app and have them take turns brushing. The brush saves up to 32 sessions, so you might be able to have them brush at the same time.

Q: Can it use the same heads as the adult Sonicare toothbrush?
A: Yes, the Philips Sonicare for Kids HX6321/02 can use Philips Sonicare brush heads that are suitable for adults.

Q: If you have two kids, do you just buy an extra head or do you need two Sonicare toothbrushes?
A: If you are using the app to track brushing time and reward proper brushing, it is advisable to buy two toothbrushes.

Q: Is it possible to switch the app to another phone or device once started?
A: No, this Sonicare for Kids is meant for use with one handle per one mobile device.

Q: Does it connect to the same Sonicare charger as the regular adult version?
A: Yes, the Sonicare for Kids can use the same charger as the adult version.

Overall, the Philips Sonicare for Kids 3+ Bluetooth Connected Rechargeable Electric Power Toothbrush is a great tool for encouraging kids to brush their teeth longer and better. The interactive app provides education and motivation, while the sonic action of the toothbrush gets to areas where bristles might not reach. However, it is important to supervise young children while using this toothbrush and not let them use it on their own.
