Gary... I've had great luck with the Braun electric toothbrush, and had hte same dificulties with the Interplak and a coupla others that you did. Breakdown soon after purchase. I think they just aren't made all that well. Barb Mallut, [log in to unmask] ---------- From: Parkinson's Disease - Information Exchange Network on behalf of Gary D.

(probably because I'm pushing to hard.) Has anyone had any success in this area. ???? thanks Gary Washington State
