The assembly of the sleek handled Triumph is in depth in clear, easy to follow illustrations in the owner’s manual. Simply put the charging ring into the base station, and attach the plastic protecting cover, which conveniently stores up to four attachments, behind the base. Slip the toothbrush body into the charging unit and the Triumph will become completely charged in about twelve hours. Completely charged, this toothbrush will be prepared to get you almost two weeks, or twenty five brushing sessions, worth of cleaning action.

One of the nice features of the Triumph’s design is that the protecting cover, which is perfect in a family bathroom setting, and may be removed when it is time to travel. Without the cover, the Triumph thin design takes up little room in your travel bag. Also, the display on the handle of the Triumph may be programmed for any of 13 different languages, and the SmartPlug located at the end of the cord for the charging ring automatically adapts to any voltage global. That means that if you are traveling to Poland or Istanbul, the Florida Keys or the Galapagos Islands, you may be able to generally keep your teeth sparkling and new.

One FlossAction brushhead is included with the Triumph. As indicated by Oral B, the FlossAction brushhead relies on MicroPulse bristles that penetrate between the teeth for a flossing effect. When you put the FlossAction into the Triumph, the toothbrush automatically selects the “clean” mode of brushing to get you the best possible cleaning experience. The left over two modes available with the Triumph “massage” and “soft” can be selected manually by pressing the mode button on the side of the handle.

The bristle length and in general brushhead size are minor downfalls of the Triumph. Because the bristle cluster is smaller than a regular toothbrush, it takes a little extra time to learn to properly navigate the contours of your teeth. The most hard hurdle to overcome when transitioning to the Triumph is bristle length. Both brushheads’ bristles feel considerably longer than an common toothbrush and can prove challenging for adults with smaller mouths.

One of the real values of the Triumph lies in the convenience it gives to the user. An easy to read digital display set into the handle of the brush lights tells you when the brushheads are prepared for substitute or when the battery needs recharging. Also, the brush is programmed to time each brushing session for the dentist recommended two minutes. Every 30 seconds the brush pulses, alerting the user to shift to a new quadrant of the mouth. And when the two minutes are up, the brush pulses and displays a friendly “happy face” on the handle’s display.

Counter space may be tight in the bathroom, but the Triumph is proficiently sized to take up a minimal total of space about the circumference of a drink coaster. All of the parts of the base station, with the exemption of the charging ring, are dishwater safe. Clean up after brushing is as simple as rinsing the brush under tap water.
