Why we chose the iO9
Its pressure guide gives you feedback as you brush. The timer, display, seven modes and optional app help you make the most of those two minutes.
About Onyx Dental Care
Selected by dentists. Priced for home.
We started Onyx because patients kept asking what they should buy for home. Our private dentist team has more than 100 years of combined dental experience. We choose products we would feel comfortable recommending in practice, and price them so more people can use them.
What it costs
The iO9 Black Onyx is £164.99 with us. Our £180 bundle adds four spare heads and Biorepair toothpaste.
If you prefer fluoride-free
We stock hydroxyapatite toothpaste for people who prefer fluoride-free care. UK guidance still recommends fluoride, and our articles explain the research and its limits.
It starts with the brush
Patients often ask us which electric toothbrush we would buy for home. We chose the Oral-B iO9 Black Onyx because its pressure guide helps you adjust while you brush, its timer and display keep useful information in view, and its seven modes let you choose the feel you prefer. The app is there if you want a closer look at your coverage. Our dentist's review of the iO9 explains why we rate those features and what to consider before buying.
Care is bigger than a toothbrush
The way you brush matters, but so do the habits around it. What you eat and drink, dry mouth, stress, medication and regular check-ups can all affect your oral health. That is what holistic care means to us: paying attention to the whole picture and finding changes you can keep up. Our plain-English guide to holistic dentistry explains it in more detail.
Fluoride-free, with the full context
UK guidance recommends fluoride toothpaste. We also know that some people prefer to avoid it. For them, we stock fluoride-free Biorepair toothpaste made with hydroxyapatite, and we explain the research without treating every formula as though it has been tested in the same way. If you are considering a change, start with our honest answer on fluoride-free toothpaste. Your own dentist can help you weigh it against your dental history.
