A clean smile is worth the investment.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m all about saving up and not overspending on home essentials and gadgets, but when the right product comes along, it’s worth the splurge — this is one of them.

I recently traded in my Oral-B Electric Toothbrush (a tried-and-true Amazon best-seller) for this Tao Clean UV Sanitizing Sonic Toothbrush and Cleaning Station.

It comes inside an alien-like dome with UV-C sanitizing technology that eliminates 99.9% of bacteria.

When you place your toothbrush inside the docking station, it uses 40,000 brush strokes per minute to remove plaque and surface stains. As someone who constantly switches her toothbrush head to fight against illness, the fact that I no longer have to buy replacements feels like a blessing (and a major money-saver).

The product is compact enough to keep on your bathroom counter. Simply plug it in next to an outlet and watch it quietly clean (and charge!) your toothbrush.

It’s offered in a variety of aesthetically stunning hues that look more like bedroom decor than a dental device. I have the green one, but it also comes in lilac, evergreen, black and pink blush.

Docking station aside, the toothbrush itself is also a star. It features a smart timer that reminds you when to switch to a different area of your mouth and automatically turns off after two minutes of brushing. The soft bristles are gentle on sensitive teeth, even as the sonic vibrations distribute toothpaste to hard-to-reach areas between teeth and below the gumline.

Choose from two brushing modes, the “Super Clean” and the “Sensitive Clean.” Both options do a thorough job and actively fight against cavities and gum disease.

One Amazon user gushed over the product: “I love that it dries and sanitizes your brush after each use. I’m also pleasantly surprised how well it works. My teeth feel amazing and I think this will keep my really white teeth, really white.”

Another added, “Just received this great toothbrush! Wish I had bought it long ago! The cleaning is amazing and I even noticed it with the first brushing! The toothbrush is much softer than the Sonic I have been using!”

Don’t hesitate to give your home a high-tech upgrade and shop the Tao Clean UV Sanitizing Sonic Toothbrush and Cleaning Station now on Amazon.
