If Apple were to put a toothbrush on the market, it would undoubtedly be the Laifen Wave. This versatile smart electric toothbrush from Laifen not only excels from design of design, but also on technology.
It is good to see that the Laifen Wave electric toothbrush inspired by Apple’s products. For example, the use of high -quality materials including aluminum, titanium and stainless steel and is full of smart techniques. You can read our findings in this review.
Laifen Wave Electric toothbrush
The Laifen Wave Electric toothbrush is a striking newcomer to the world of oral care. With its advanced technology, sleek design and smart functions, this toothbrush distinguishes itself from the competition.
The Laifen Wave is the first in the world to introduce a dual-action cleaning method: a brush head that both oscillates (up to 60 °) and vibrates with an impressive 66,000 movements per minute. This way your teeth will become clean in no time, even with the gums.
Unique design inspired by Apple
Although the manufacturer will not admit it immediately, the design of De Laifen Wave is clearly inspired by Apple’s products. You notice this in the material choices, design and ease of use. The packaging himself looks like a combination of an iPhone and Apple Watch box.
Those who are interested in the wave can choose between a finish of ABS (plastic), aluminum, stainless steel and titanium. We have tested the stainless steel and aluminum version for this review.
It is good to know that all wave toothbrushes are equal to each other, except for the identification lamp and material. In addition, you get completely white toothbrush heads at the ABS teeth brush, with the other materials this is transparent.
Minimalist and hygienic
The design of the Laifen Wave is minimalist and hygienic. The handle consists of one closed part, so there are no seams where dirt can accumulate. The operation runs through a pressure-sensitive touch button in the housing. This makes the toothbrush not only stylish, but also easy to keep clean.
The Wave is IPX7 waterproof and therefore safe to use in the bathroom. Rinse the toothbrush vertically under the tap, dry it and it is clean again. The space is also limited between the brush head and the handle, so that no toothpaste can accumulate there either.
Dual-Action Cleaning
De Laifen Wave is the first in the world to introduce a dual-action cleaning method: a brush head that both oscillates (up to 60 °) and vibrates with an impressive 66,000 movements per minute. This is made possible by your own servo system* and smart PID algorithms, so that the brush always delivers consistent power, regardless of the pressure you exert.
*A servo system is a closed-loop control system that accurately positions and/or arranges an engine, often a servomotor.
Bass brushing technique
I have to admit that, before using this toothbrush, I had never heard of the bass brushing technique. This technique is recommended by dentists and would be the way of brushing teeth that focuses on effective removal of dental plaque in the gums.
De Laifen Wave has incorporated this technique into their smart toothbrush by using adapted brush heads and the up and down movement up to 60º. This technology ensures deep cleaning to under the edge of the gums, effectively against plaque and food scraps.
I myself soon suffer from tartar at the back of my teeth, so for me the Laifen Wave came as a handy tool to tackle these problem zones. For this I had a traditional electric toothbrush with round brush head that mainly made rotating movements. Because the Laifen Wave moves up and down, you feel that it better cleans the gums.
Get used to shaking
The powerful vibrating and oscillating movements of the Laifen Wave electric toothbrush ensure a particularly intense brushing feeling, making it getting used to the intensity and speed in the beginning. The first days you will often bump into the opposite teeth with the brush head while brushing, that is a crazy feeling. This will get better over time when you know how to position the brush.
Smart functions and app support
De Laifen Wave offers three standard cleaning positions (normal, sensitive and polishing) that you can change immediately using the on-out button. Above this button the cleaning position is indicated with luminous dots.
With the free Laifen app (for iOS and Android) you can set the cleaning time, speed and power of the vibrations completely as desired. This way you can adjust the vibrating and oscillating movements with ten intensity levels. In the beginning it is advisable to adjust the toothbrush downwards, so that you can get used to the intensity and gradually perform this.
Adjust settings, no analysis
The app acts as a digital mode switch, but does not offer extensive analysis of your cleaning behavior. This means that the app does not keep track of how long you have cleaned and what power, etc. you have exerted.
In the Laifen application you can further personalize the toothbrush. This way you can use cleaning zone reminder. The toothbrush then vibrates 2 times every 30 seconds to remind you of changing the cleaning zone (this function must be activated manually in the Laifen app). In addition, the cleaning time in the Laifen app can be set at 1 – 5 minutes.
You can also switch the aircraft mode on and off and switch on a special high frequency mode, so that the vibrations and oscillating movements can adjust even more intensively.
The vibration frequency in daily mode is 26000 vibrations/min.
- Vibrating strength: 7.6 ° – 20.8 ° (10 levels)
- Oscillation range: 0 ° – 66 ° (10 levels)
- Oscillation speed: 3 – 8.2 Hz/s (10 levels)

Laifen Wave smart functions
- Sleep mode: After a break of 10 seconds, it automatically switches to sleep mode to save battery.
- Tilt up to wake up: The brush automatically activates when you pick it up thanks to the motion sensor.
- Backpack mode: If the toothbrush detects movement for 3 minutes, the backpack mode is activated to prevent accidental on.
- Airplane mode: Switch the toothbrush completely off by pressing the button for 2 seconds.
Battery life of 30 days
De Laifen Wave has an impressive battery life of at least 30 days in position 2 by twice daily use, two minutes each. The built -in indicator light indicates the battery status of the toothbrush and in the app you see a more closer value. In about 2.5 hours you can fully recharge the toothbrush with the supplied wired magnetic charger.
Laifen toothbrush in practice
I have been using the Laifen Wave for some time and I notice a difference in the way of brushing. The up and down movement of the brush head provides a different cleaning than my previous toothbrush with a round head.
As I mentioned earlier, I recommend adjusting the intensity of the toothbrush in the beginning, so that you can get used to the vibrations and oscillating movements. After a few days you can gradually perform this.
A function that I initially missed in this smart toothbrush was a pressure sensor that records how hard you press the toothbrush against your teeth and then gives a visual feedback here. De Laifen Wave has a smart servo engine that adapts to you and how hard you press, you do not get visual feedback, but the power is reduced, even if this is less noticeable.
I have nothing to complain about about the design of the Laifen Wave. The toothbrush fits nicely in the hand and is easy to operate. The materials are also beautiful and of high quality.
With its powerful performance, long battery life and ease of use, it is an excellent choice for those looking for an advanced electric toothbrush. Because you only have to charge the toothbrush once a month, a charging station is unnecessary. You can put the toothbrush well, but a holder would have been extra handy.
