Got one, works well for me. Do not buy the bamboo brushes though! They are super crappy and don't brush as well. Using the normal brushes I have almost no tooth stone (is that the right word?) building up.
With the bamboo brushes it is building up almost as fast as with a non electric toothbrush.

"plaque" is what we call it in English. (which is ironically actually taken from Middle-Germanic/Dutch in the first place)

No, plaque is the soft stuff. Tartar is the colloquial English for it, calculus is the medical term.

Goddamn calculus invading my teeth. Got damn integral and shit on my teeth.
