Our family have used the Sonicare toothbrushes since they were first available. The only way that they have ever failed for us is when the rubber/plastic button cover wears through. It appears to degrade from use of hand cream before using the toothbrush, or just from natural skin grease. This TPU sleeve slips tightly over the damaged button and prevents water from getting into the electronics. Use this to save replacing your worn Sonicare, or alternately use it prophylactically to prevent the button cover failure from happening. Note: ensure that you use the vase mode settings with zero bottom shell layers, otherwise you will get useless lump of TPU. I've set the horizontal scale to 105% of the original model to ensure that it is possible to slip over the body.Boost MeIf this rescues or preserves your toothbrush, consider Boosting the model so that others can preserve their Sonicares too
