Save 40% off the regular retail price of this excellent power toothbrush. It has a two minute timer, to make sure you brush for long enough, and a pressure sensor to avoid overbrushing certain zones in your mouth.

The Philips Sonicare 4100 comes in a variety of colorways, and they're all discounted — so you can get yourself a black, white, or pink version for the same price.

Why go electric? According to Philips, the spinning motion of electric toothbrushes can remove up to seven times more plaque than a normal toothbrush. To balance this out, the Sonicare 4100 comes with a pressure sensor that can protect you from overbrushing, too.

A two minute timer will let you know when you need to move between the quadrants of your mouth, too, so you'll be following a dentist-recommended brushing pattern. With normal use the battery lasts for two whole weeks, with a light to show you when you need to use the included USB connected stand to juice it up.

There's one brush head included in the box, but you'll get a reminder when it's time to move to the next one, too.
