Philips Brushheads C1

Hi, I need to get some replacement brushheads. I can buy some from a firm called Brushd, which are recycleable, generic ebay ones or the proper Philips ones.
Are the generic, non-branded ones OK, and are their any generic brands that people recommend or shall I stick to the Philips ones?
thanks

Avoid any generic toothbrush heads. There is actually quite a lot of thought and design that go into toothbrush heads, and getting none-genuine cheapies may seem absolutely fine right up to the point your dentist tells you you need some expensive work to put right the damage they have caused.
Getting genuine ones, from reputable places whilst they're on a good offer is fine. Buying the 5 for £3.50 type is dicing with disasterHow to find a dentist.
1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.2 -
the last ones I bought I got on offer from Amazon. But, I think they went up since then? You can buy the genuine ones on eBay as I have done that before. And yes they were genuine.
