The Ultreo ($170), the brainchild of scientists at the University of Washington, is the first to use ultrasound waves to break down plaque and attack oral stains. The Ultreo brush head features, of all things, an "ultrasound transducer." The small orange lump surrounded by bristles is designed to channel ultrasound vibrations through water and saliva to create bubbles. Those bubbles, in turn, pulsate and do the cleaning work.

Offer of the Day

Ultreo is the first power toothbrush to combine patented ultrasound waveguide technology with precisely tuned sonic bristle action. Ultreo’s bristles create microbubbles that are powerfully activated by nearly 4 million cycles of ultrasound energy per brushing channeled by a patented ultrasound waveguide.

Latest in toothbrush technology? Ultrasound. No, seriously… the Ultreo uses sonic vibrations plus ultrasound. And as much as initially i thought this might just be another crazy gimmick and I initially wanted to check it out b/c the packaging was interesting, and the new technology intriguing… I didn’t expect to actually be hooked on my teeth feeling this noticeably clean relative to the Sonicare Elite.

New York Magazine

Ultreo, has introduced a namesake toothbrush that combines sonic waves with something called “ultrasound waveguide technology.” I’ve been using it for a week, and it feels pleasantly less aggressive than the high-vibration Sonicare. Plus the foamy paste it creates is incredibly effective at targeting nooks and crannies (it’s clinically proven to remove up to 95 percent of hard-to-reach plaque in 60 seconds).

It’s a really cool toothbrush. The geek in me giggles with excitement everytime I pick this thing up. Ultreo really paid attention to the details in both designing and packaging (it’s almost as good an experience as opening a product box with a fruit logo on it, if you know what I mean.)

AOL News

Immediately after you finish brushing, a distinct feeling of (quite literal) squeaky-clean sets in; your teeth actually feel as if they've been buffed and polished, and the squeak when you rub your finger across them is actually audible (though not visible). The unit itself feels solid and well-built, and the brush-head seems seems more durable than those of other premium toothbrushes.
