The DiamondClean 9000 is Philips' premium-finish handle with a charging stand rather than the USB lead of the numbered Series models. Deep Clean+ and White+ replace the Series modes, the app connects over Bluetooth, and Philips quotes two weeks per charge, a week short of the cheaper Series 5700 to 7100.

Pressure sensor and ADA Seal

Pressure sensor (vibration or sound). Philips Sonicare's description: Vibration and pulsing sound.

No ADA Seal listing found for this model on the ADA’s own product search. That is not a failed test: the Seal is voluntary and makers apply for it product by product.

These are facts about features and listings, not a statement that the brush prevents or treats anything. What a pressure sensor does · What the ADA Seal means

Three years of ownership

Handle: $200
Heads (11 × $6.66): $73.26

12 heads over 36 months at Philips Sonicare's stated 3-month interval, less 1 head in the box. Head price: Sonicare SimplyClean 6-pack (HX6016/77), $39.96 on usa.philips.com. How this is worked out

What the extra money buys: Same 62,000 brush movements / min and a pressure sensor as the Philips Sonicare Series 5700; the extra $120 buys 2 more modes, app tracking, a travel case and a charging stand. See the Philips Sonicare Series 5700.

Where these figures come from

Every figure is the maker’s own, from its US product page, spec sheet or store, and the ADA listing comes from the ADA’s own site. A figure the maker does not publish is left out rather than estimated. The three-year cost, gum-safety and travel chips are worked out from those figures here.
