What’s the same
Both brushes are built to perform (exactly what your dentist would hope for!).
-
Up to 11x more plaque removal between teeth¹
-
Up to 2x whitening starting day 1²
They each have a guiding pressure sensor that alerts you (with light and pulses) when you brush too hard. And you can count on the same long-lasting battery life — up to 30 days per charge³.
Not to forget… accessories! Rev and Rev Smart include a magnetic charger cable, countertop stand, and a travel case, making it easy to keep things going at home and on the go.
Rev: Your powerful, everyday clean
Its soft replaceable toothbrush head rotates, oscillates, and pulsates to reach tricky spots and disrupt pesky plaque. The dual-length bristles are designed to work together:
-
Outer bristles: Clean between teeth and along the gumline
-
Inner bristles: Help polish and brighten surface stains
Rev also includes 3 brushing modes:
-
Gentle: For sensitive teeth or gums
-
Daily: Your everyday go-to
-
Deep clean: A more powerful refresh
A simple, effective brush built to do the job well, every day.
Rev Smart: More modes and smart tracking
Rev Smart builds on Rev with added flexibility and feedback. It introduces a fourth mode — Extra Gentle — for ultra-sensitive teeth or gums.
It also adds Bluetooth connectivity that syncs with the app, which:
-
Tracks brushing habits automatically
-
Shares simple insights based on your brushing data
-
Offers tips to help improve consistency and technique
-
Rewards you for building healthy habits
(Your toothbrush keeping score = oddly motivating.)
Design, colors, and feel
Rev comes in 5 dual-tone colorways with metallic accents: Black Night, Blue Mist, Silver Cloud, Gray Shadow, and Blue Stone.
If you’re considering Rev Smart, it’s available exclusively in Crescent — a dark body with a sandstone-toned faceplate.
One gives you options. The other keeps it focused.
So, which Rev is right for you?
Choose the original Rev if you want:
-
A powerful, straightforward clean
-
Simple controls with no app required
