A bit of googling tells me the deep cleaning is justified in certain types of gingivitis. Comfort Dental - oops did I say that - told me I needed it every single time I came in. Your dentist sounds more honest. I had the sonicare brush around for a while before I actually started using it - it's a little tricky getting used to the vibration for some people - at first I didn't know to close my mouth around the stem of the brush, which makes it a lot easier to use. The darn thing cleans my teeth better than anything, and really does a good job under the gums.
