We are thrilled to announce the Philips Sonicare for Kids product review!

Because as mums, we are always looking for ways to help our kids take better care of their toothy pegs.

Philips Sonicare for Kids gives you superior cleaning for growing smiles.

Review_Sonicare_for_Kids_brush_350x700Philips understands that parents want to encourage their children’s independence, but that they are also aware of the great importance of healthy teeth and gums.

In a very child-friendly way, this rechargeable sonic toothbrush ensures exceptional brushing results that you, your child – and your dentist – will be proud of!

Sonicare’s dynamic cleaning action drives fluid between teeth and along the gum line, providing a gentle and effective clean. This advanced technology allows the Sonicare For Kids to remove up to 75% more plaque than manual toothbrushes*

The KidPacer delivers fun and engaging musical tones that encourage kids to brush their entire mouth effectively for the dentist-recommended 2 minutes.

Two kid-friendly brushing speeds and brush head sizes, suited for 4+ and 7+, make it easy for your child to get used to sonic cleaning.

Fun interchangeable stickers allow kids to make each brush uniquely their own and the multi grip design for parents and kids allows you guide their technique.

*VS a manual toothbrush

In short, Sonicare For Kids is a smart, long-term investment in your child’s oral health.

The app features two interactive characters – Bjorn the Viking and Vicky the Vampire – who make sure your son or daughter gets hooked on brushing.

The Brush Busters App allows your child to:

  • Bought for my daughter, she LOVED it!

    My daughter is usually really REALLY fussy when it comes to her toothbrush. I mean REALLY fussy! She won’t let me brush her teeth, she has to be Miss Independent, and she will only use a specific type of brush. Normally, she would never dream of using an electric toothbrush, but for some reason, she gravitated toward this one in the store, and I thought, “Why not?” WELL! She LOVED it! She went from brushing her teeth twice per day, to brushing five times daily! She says it’s the most fun she’s ever had brushing her teeth. :D I love the fact that it’s a brand I trust, and that it is giving her the best start to dental hygiene possible while making brushing fun. I HIGHLY recommend this toothbrush, and just wish I could use one myself! ;)

  • Cleaner teeth - less fuss

    I love this product. Both my kids have been using the Philips Sonicare and the results are fantastic. The kids love how they can put their “touch” on the brush with the different stickers and the beeps that remind them to change sides/top-bottom. It’s no longer a chore to brush their teeth – the only fights now is who gets to go first. From a parents point of view – I’ve really noticed the difference in just how clean their teeth are. My 8yo daughter has several adult teeth crowding her little mouth so lots of cross overs etc, but this brush gets in there and her teeth have never looked cleaner or whiter. I’m loving it!!!

  • For parents of children with autism

    Two of my children that reviewed this fantastic toothbrush are severely autistic.

    They are incredibly sensitive and find brushing their teeth quite intrusive.

    Even with their sensory sensitivity they still enjoyed using the Philips Sonicare For Kids.

    The toothbrush does not produce an overbearing vibrating sensation.

    In fact it engaged and encouraged them to maintain their morning and night brushing routine.

    I ‘hand over hand’ brush with one of my children and I find that the slim design of the toothbrush along with the rubberised grip allows for ease of handling even in this circumstance.

    From using the Philips Sonicare For Kids it’s very obvious that a tremendous amount of thought and care has gone into its design.

  • Mother's Opinion- Thoroughly enjoyable as well as effective!

    As all the lucky parents who were selected for this wonderful review received three brush heads in total, I was able to trial it with all three of my little ones that fell within the 4+ age range!

    I need to build the foundation for healthy oral care habits with my children whilst they are young so that they have a better likelihood of maintaining good habits throughout their life.

    Philips Sonicare For Kids enables me to equip my children with the tools as well as the motivation they need to maintain a healthy daily routine.

    * Dentists recommend a brushing time of 2 minutes- my children aren’t too fussed about what dentists recommend, they do however enjoy brushing for two minutes until the toothbrush stops
    * The stickers don’t lift or peel when wet
    * The Philips Sonicare toothbrush is very easy to clean and maintain
    * Definitely removes more plaque even without toothpaste (especially for little ones who aren’t able to spit)
    * The stickers are easy to apply and any wrinkles that occur can be smoothed out with ease
    * Unlike other electric brushes it does not leave my hand tingling after or during use due to the vibrations
    * The Philips Sonicare For Kids encouraged and enabled independent brushing
    * The bristles on the brush head are perfectly soft and gentle for young children

    The Brush Busters app is almost like a game which encourages my little ones to compete against one another to see who can help their character to gain back all their teeth

    The brush is perfectly balanced and designed with the child’s hands in mind.

    If you are stuck trying to think of a gift for a little one aged 4+ I would highly recommend the Philips Sonicare For Kids. It really would make an absolutely perfect gift. And the little one receiving it would remember you every time they use it.

    I would like to thank the lovely team at Mouths of Mums as well as Philips for giving my family this truly life changing opportunity. It has made an amazing difference to our children’s brushing routines and I can’t thank you enough for providing us with something that they are all willing and able to use, and love!

  • Chanel's Review- Enables Independence!

    There is definitely a difference in the length of time that Chanel’s teeth stay ‘fur’ free throughout the day.

    The slender handle with rubber grip is absolutely perfect for the size of her hand.

    It’s well balanced as well as weighted, which means it’s not something that is going to tire a little 4 year olds arm before they reach the full 2 minutes of brushing time.

    In the same way that Chanel’s older brother Maxwell was fascinated by the way the Brush Busters App recognised when the Philips Sonicare For Kids toothbrush was switched on, she was very surprised to find that her character Vicky the Vampire from the app noticed when she switched off the toothbrush before finishing her time.

    I’ve found that by using the Philips Sonicare For Kids Chanel was able to gain more independence whilst brushing as well as achieving the full two minutes brushing time which I am extremely proud of.

  • Kingston's Review- Fabulous for fussy little ones!

    Kingston dislikes brushing his teeth to the point that it makes him quite distressed each and every time, even with a manual brush.

    Electric toothbrushes in particular bother him quite a bit as often the vibrating sensation can be overly strong.

    I was nervous about how he would react to the Philips Sonicare For Kids but at the same time I was willing to give anything a go as brushing Kingston’s teeth is often quite challenging.

    Not only did the Philips Sonicare For Kids NOT make Kingston anxious or upset, but it has enabled us to get a far better clean in the same amount of time.

    Kingston is still on the 1 minute setting, but he is happy to make the connection that when the buzzing stops it means he’s finished.

    The Philips Sonicare For Kids actually made Kingston smile! It has really pushed his brushing routine in a positive direction.

    I would say that the Philips Sonicare For Kids has completely changed Kingston’s perspective on brushing his teeth and it has made it a much more enjoyable experience.

  • Maxwell's Review- Even more awesome than the Philips Brush Busters App!

    Maxwell is seven years old and before being lucky enough to have been selected for this exciting review he did find the Philips Brush Busters App extremely engaging as well as motivating.

    The Philips Sonicare For Kids really did take his brushing routine, as well as results to the next level though.

    Maxwell was fascinated by the way his character Bjorn the Viking (on the app) was able to recognise what toothbrush he was using simply by switching it on.

    The stickers were a huge hit and Maxwell loved being able to choose his own sticker.

    The built in timer is a massive motivator in getting him to brush for the entire two minutes and even on mornings when we are in a rush the timer alone is enough encouragement for him to achieve the recommend time.

    Maxwell absolutely loves the Philips Sonicare For Kids and is now very consistent with his morning as well as night brushing routine.

  • What's in the Box?

    * Philips Sonicare For Kids Toothbrush
    * Charging base
    * One brush head
    * Eight large handle stickers
    * Two sheets of smaller handle stickers
    * One replacement panel
    * Instruction manual

    As I will be reviewing this product on three of my children I am going to allow them each to select some of the smaller stickers to decorate the toothbrush with as that way it makes it more personalised for each of them.

    I am really looking forward to this review as I can’t control what my children choose to eat and drink for the rest of their lives, however I can set them up for life with healthy brushing habits.

  • Happy happy happy

    So happy to be picked for this review. I have had so many problems with trying to get mr 9 to brush properly or at least regularly with so many tears & arguments that I was getting ready to give up. Happy to say that I no longer have to nag, plead, beg or bribe him to brush his teeth. He made it look like so much fun that miss 6 & mr 5 wanted in on the action. Those extra heads have been brilliant, now all 3 can use it without a hassle.
    Love the app- teaches the kids how to brush properly
    Love the timer- the kids now brush for a reasonable amount of time
    Love the size- great for reaching all areas of the little ones mouths without them feeling the need to spew (mr 9s words)
    Thank you soooo much, I think you’ve just saved me $$$$$$ on future dentist bills!!!

  • Teeth have to last

    Philips Sonicare for kids is a great little toothbrush that the kids love to use. They have good teeth and Sonicare will keep them that way. It is fun to use and cleans better than a normal toothbrush. They have fun designs that kids love. It is easy to recharge and teaches them to brush independently.

  • Constant clean

    We absolutely love Philips Sonicare for kids to promote good teeth and healthy gums in our children. The kids just love their toothbrushes and we have bought them for their little cousins too. It’s easy to get them to brush properly and the dentist is very happy with their teeth.

  • It works

    I have bought Sonicare for my two nieces and nephew for presents in the hope their teeth will be cavity free. They are having fun using them so that’s a good start to nice oral hygeine. My son loves his and even though he has great teeth and brushes regularly, having the Sonicare gives me piece of mind that his teeth are being looked after at home well.

  • Making brushing fun

    I bought my grandkids A Sonicare to leave here for when they have sleepovers, it was always a chore to get them to brush their teeth, now they have one at their house too-they have found it easy to use even the 1y/o giggles when she has her gums brushed.

  • Sonicare Teethcare

    I believe the Philips Sonicare does a better job cleaning teeth than by just brushing with an ordinary toothbrush. My son has great teeth and I want to keep them that way. Teeth need to last a lifetime so the expense of this product is minor if it takes better care of his teeth.

  • Philips for Pearly Whites

    My son has always loved getting his teeth brushed (Yes I know different from most). I wasn’t sure about getting this but I had heard it does clean teeth better and I believe it does. It is a bit of an expense but compared to possible dental charges I guess cost is minimal.

    I bought this for my son to use as he can be very hard to get his teeth brushed at night. After using it once he now absolutely loves it. Unfortunately I had to buy another one because he then thought it would be fun to use it to ‘clean’ every surface haha but I told him this new one is only for his teeth :) classic boys!

  • My daughter loves this tooth brush

    My daughter is loving this toothbrush. I didn’t get chosen to review it but I went out and brought it thinking it was probably going to be quite good, I am so surprised. It is excelent. My daughter happily brushes her own teeth and there is no argument about it. It does a great job and the dentist said her teeth are super clean. I love how gentle but thorough it is. Would highly recommend. Thanks Mouths of Mums for another great review

  • Great tool to encourage teeth brushing

    I really loved the way this toothbrush added fun into a boring chore for my kids! Both my boys (aged 5 & 8) now have a Philips Sonicare toothbrush and both love the sensation of brushing their teeth with it. I love that both boys tooth brushes can be personalised to fit the individual child. I do think they are a bit expensive however as it is a good quality product I think of the money I’m saving on dental bills! Would definitely recommend it to other mums who struggle to encourage their children to brush their teeth! 

  • Love this product

    I love this product so much, looks great, easy to use! Quite expensive though for a tooth brush. I like mine but I don’t think I’d buy another one if it broke simply because of the cost. It does do a great job though and my dentist did comment on how my teeth had improved since my last visit. I think they need to make it more budget friendly. Overall a great product that I would recommend though

  • really handy

    this phillips electric toothbrush sure is a great product. the kids really don’t mind the vibration and like brushing their teeth. This makes brushing everyday a fun task and it really is easy to use the brush. the app helps them brush properly and it gives me piece of mind that the job is being done the right way. the brushing is timed as well so you don’t need to stress. the tooth brush comes with different types of stickers so your little ones are able to make the tooth brush special by customising it and making it theirs! i recommend this to anyone and my kids enjoy using it. the battery has a really long life to it and holds charge well. Thanks for reading this review by the way.

  • wow now i get a visiter

    My son is so happy I know it s not the toothbrush that did it but his tooth has been wobble for months now, and after brushing his teeth he came to me and said it is really wobble now.
    I touched it and out it fell.
    he was so excited because now the tooth fairy can collect a nice clear tooth. How sweet.

  • Easy to use and for all types of children

    One of my daughters is autistic and I am pleased to say she coped well with using this brush. It’s fun for her to use and it tickles she says. Great for her to learn to brush longer too.

    I would recommend
    Philips Sonicare for
    Kids to others
