Using your toothbrush
Brushing technique
Wet brush head and apply any kind of toothpaste. To avoid splashing, guide the
brush head to your teeth before switching on the handle (picture
➁
). When
brushing your teeth with one of the Oral-B
oscillating-rotating brush heads
guide the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth, spending a few seconds on each
tooth surface (picture
➂
). When using the Oral-B
«Deep Sweep» brush head
place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle towards the
gumline. Apply light pressure and start brushing in back and forth motions, just
like you would do with a manual toothbrush.
With any brush head start brushing the outsides, then the insides and finally the
chewing surfaces. Brush all four quadrants of your mouth equally. You may also
consult your dentist or dental hygienist about the right technique for you.
In the first days of using any electric toothbrush, your gums may bleed slightly.
In general, bleeding should stop after a few days. Should it persist after 2
weeks, please consult your dentist or dental hygienist. If you have sensitive
teeth and/or gums, Oral-B recommends using the «Sensitive» mode (optional
in combination with an Oral-B «Sensitive» brush head).
Smart Ring features
Your toothbrush is equipped with a Smart Ring (2) that has various functionalities
indicated via different colors of light:
White (default) = Operating and visual timer light (choose individual color
via Oral-B
™
app settings)
Red
= Pressure sensor light
Blue
=
Bluetooth
®
pairing indicator
Timer
You can choose between «Professional» or «2-Minute» timer.
The «2-Minute» timer signals with a long stuttering sound and a flashing light
of the Smart Ring (2) that the professionally recommended 2-minute brushing
time has been reached.
The «Professional» timer signals with a short stuttering sound and a flashing
light of the Smart Ring at 30-seconds intervals to move to the next quadrant
of your mouth (picture
➂
). A long stuttering sound and a flashing light indicate
the end of the professionally recommended 2-minute brushing time.
The timer memorizes the elapsed brushing time, even when the handle is
briefly switched off during brushing. The timer resets if pausing longer than
30 seconds, briefly pressing the mode button (4) during pause or placing the
handle on the plugged-in charger.
Note: During the use of special Oral-B
™
app features, the visual timer light may
be deactivated.
Timer setup:
Your toothbrush comes with the «Professional» timer activated. To change this,
press and hold the mode button (4) for 2 seconds. Toggle between timer
selection by pressing the on/off button (3). Confirm selection by pressing the
mode button.
• 2 LED’s illuminated indicate «2-Minute» timer
• 4 LED’s illuminated indicate «Professional» timer
Note: You can also set/advance the timer functionality via Oral-B
™
App.
Pressure sensor
If too much pressure is applied, the Smart Ring (2) will light up in red, reminding
you to reduce pressure. In addition the pulsation of the brush head will stop
and the oscillation movement of the brush head will be reduced (during
«Daily Clean», «Pro Clean» and «Sensitive» mode) (picture
➂
).
Periodically check the operation of the pressure sensor by pressing moderately
on the brush head during use.
Brushing modes (depending on model)
Your toothbrush offers different brushing modes indicated on the brushing
mode display (6) on your handle («Daily Clean» mode does not illuminate on the
brushing mode display):
«Daily Clean»
– Standard mode for daily mouth cleaning
«Pro Clean»
– For an extraordinary clean feeling (operated with a higher
frequency)
«Sensitive»
– Gentle, yet thorough cleaning for sensitive areas
«3D White»
– Polishing for occasional or everyday use
«Gum Care»
– Gentle massage of gums
«Tongue Clean»
– Tongue cleaning for occasional or everyday use
When operating the «Tongue Clean» mode, we recommend using the «Sensitive»
brush head. You can brush your tongue either with or without toothpaste. Brush the
whole area of your tongue systematically in gentle movements. The recommended
brushing time is 20 seconds; indicated with a flashing light of the Smart Ring.
Your toothbrush automatically starts in the mode selected last. To switch to another
mode, successively press the mode button during use (picture
➃
). To return from
any mode back to «Daily Clean» mode, press and hold the mode button (4).
Note: You can also set/advance the mode functionality via Oral-B
™
App.
Brush heads
Oral-B offers you a variety of different Oral-B brush heads that fit your Oral-B
toothbrush handle.
Our
oscillating-rotating brush heads
can be used for tooth-by-tooth
precision cleaning.
Oral-B Gum Care brush head
features a combination of regular and ultra-thin bristles for
advanced cleaning and gum protection.
Oral-B CrossAction brush head
features perfectly angled bristles to remove plaque, even in
hard-to-reach areas.
Oral-B FlossAction brush head
features micropulse bristles that allow for an outstanding plaque
removal in the interdental areas.
Oral-B 3D White brush head
features a special polishing cup to naturally whiten your teeth.
Please note that children under 12 years old should not use the
Oral-B «3D White» brush head.
Oral-B Sensitive Gum Care brush head
Features extra soft bristles for gentle cleaning of sensitive areas.
Our
dynamic «Deep Sweep»
brush head can be used with all common
brushing techniques.
Oral-B Deep Sweep brush head
features triple zone cleaning action for outstanding plaque
removal, even in between teeth.
Most Oral-B brush heads feature INDICATOR
®
bristles to help you monitor brush
head replacement need. With thorough brushing, twice a day for two minutes,
the color will fade halfway approximately within 3 months, indicating the need
to exchange your brush head. If the bristles splay before the color recedes,
you may be exerting too much pressure on teeth and gums.
We do not recommend using the Oral-B «FlossAction» or Oral-B «3D White»
brush head with braces. You may use the Oral-B «Ortho» brush head, specifically
designed to clean around braces and wires.
