Oral-b Pro replacement heads

Daz2009

I am a recent convert to electric toothbrushing, obviously the heads need replacing every few months or so..... I noticed Home Bargains do some really cheap heads but after trying them they're not as good as oral-b ones, not really surprising to be fair.

Are there any compatible ones that are worth buying or have I got to stump up the extortionate price of 'proper' ones ?

Only tried Tesco's compatibles - cheap and pretty useless.

I've swapped back to The Real Thing. Like most Oral-B products they are generally available at a discount somewhere, the supermarkets or Boots/Superdrug are worth a look whenever you are in, and Amazon usually has some (although some are so cheap……)

Stick the toothbrush heads into

for help finding the cheapest.

I use these ones and find them very similar to the branded version

look out for offers on the proper ones. Boots and Superdrug quite often have them on sale, or try savers if there is one near you.

I use the real ones and keep an eye out for offers in boots, Superdrug etc. I don't wait until I'm down to my last head to buy more, if I've got a couple left that's when I really start hunting.

Amazon currently have an 8 pack of heads for £14.87

I stick to Oral B or Lidl. Beware of fake Oral B on auction websites etc.

Tried several knock off versions and have hade some disintegrate in my mouth mid clean ! Now only use genuine and usually get them from Amazon when on 50% offers on a large multipack at around £1.80 per head. I do though use Amazon as the supplier and not a third party seller as you can never be 100% sure on those.

Your Lidl must have different stock to mine,no toothbrush heads on the shelves at all

Talking of Oral-B discounts, I notice that their top-of-the-range £850 iO10 brush is down to £315 - on their own website.

For normal people, the brusheads there can be had for around £2.50.

I bought 2 packs of 4 about a year ago so maybe discontinued now. They did 2 diffferent styles of brush.

I use Gillette Mach 3 Razor blades and Oral B electric toothbrushes. Numerous times I have tried aftermarket heads for both, and they have all been universally bad and always ended up being a false economy.

Also, despite being a huge eBay advocate, I these are 2 of the 3 things I will never buy from eBay, purely due to the amount of counterfeits out there. I'll only buy from Amazon, but only when sold BY amazon, and also from major supermarket chains / Boots whenever there is a sale or promotion on.
