Brushing technique
Attach one of the brush heads to the handle. They can be
used with any kind of toothpaste.
To avoid splashing, guide the brush head to your teeth
before switching the appliance on.
Guide the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth.
Hold the brush head in place for a few seconds before
moving on to the next tooth.
Brush the gums as well as the teeth, first the outsides, then
the insides, finally the chewing surfaces.
Do not press too hard or scrub, simply let the brush do all
the work.
To thoroughly remove plaque, brush for at least two
minutes.
Pressure Sensor
For optimal brushing results
Oral-B ProfessionalCare
has a
pressure control feature to help you brush gently. This helps
protect your gums from excessive brushing and helps make
your toothbrush easy to operate. If too much pressure is
applied, the oscillating movement of the brush head will
continue but the pulsation will stop. In addition to feeling it,
you can also hear a different sound.
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second intervals, which you
can hear and feel, reminds you to brush the four quadrants of
your mouth equally for a thorough consistent clean. A long
stuttering sound indicates when the dentist recommended
2-minute brushing time has been reached.
The timer memorises the elapsed brushing time, even when
the handle is briefly switched off during brushing. Only when
pausing longer than 30 sec. the timer resets to the initial
starting point.
In the first days of using the toothbrush, your gums may bleed
slightly. In general, bleeding should stop after a few days.
Should it persist after two weeks, please consult your dentist
or dental hygienist.
Dentists recommend that you replace any toothbrush every
3 months. The INDICATOR bristles help you monitor and
improve your brushing performance. With proper brushing,
twice a day for two minutes, the blue colour on the
INDICATOR bristles will fade halfway approximately within
3 months, signaling it is time to change the brush head.
Replacement brush heads are available at your retailer or
Oral-B Braun Service Centres.
