Hi Matt,

I have a tooth brush that I bought for $35 at Arbor Drugs that has this kind
of thing built into it. A video tape came with it, which I haven't watched
yet. It sounded like a good idea, but since I couldn't see, hear or feel
anything happening I quite using it. I still have it and the video, but I
bought one of those sonic tooth brushes. I'm not saying that the device
doesn't work, just that if it does I can't feel anything. Now that you
mention it, I will have a look at the video to see what is said about it.
