Recommendations for off-brand Sonic electric toothbrush heads?
June 1, 2022 10:55 AM   Subscribe

I have a SoniCare electric toothbrush (one of the newer ones, the kind where you just put on the toothbrush head on top of a "pole" and it snaps on; not screw-on), and I'm needing replacement heads soon. The Sonic heads are a bit on the expensive side, so I want alternatives (preferably on Amazon) that's good quality, soft bristles, and aren't filled of BPA or other harmful chemicals.

It's a bit overwhelming sifting through all the options on Amazon, and I want to make sure I find the right toothbrush head that's cheap, but still good quality. I did see a past Ask about this, but it was a few years ago, so I can imagine with COVID, supply issues, etc, things has changed a bit.

Thanks for any recommendations you can point me to!

I've had good luck with Target's store brand ones. I had a bad experience with the one type I ordered on Amazon, but I don't remember the brand.

These work fine with my Sonicare Series 2 (pop-on head)

Seconding the Target brand heads. No idea about the chemical composition, I just assume that all plastic compounds will eventually be found to be some kind of problem, sigh.

I recently switched to an electric toothbrush once i found out that there were bamboo replacement heads for Sonicare bases. Booheads seem to be available on Amazon.com in the US. The bristles aren't super soft, but not hard either.

Best answer: We have been using the Aoremon brush heads for our older E-series for years now, and have been quite happy with them. They have several options for different Sonicare models.

I use Target brand heads. Costco also has them, but Target actually prices out cheaper.
