Individual brush heads and
accessories
Oral-B offers you a variety of brush
heads which are available in stores
that sell Oral-B products. Following
brush heads are interchangeable and
can be used on your Oral-B Vitality
handle:
Oral-B Precision Clean
cups each tooth with a
curved bristle trim and
reaches deep between
teeth at the same time.

provides outstanding
whitening and polishing in
three weeks and reaches

®
bristles to help you
monitor brush head replacement need.
With thorough brushing, twice a day
for two minutes, the blue color will
fade halfway down approximately in a
3-month period. If the bristles splay
before the color recedes, you are
exerting too much pressure on teeth
and gums

(a–c).
In the first few 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.
Cleaning
After use, rinse the brush head for
several seconds under running water
with the handle switched on. Then
switch off the handle and take off
the brush head. Rinse both parts
separately under running water and
wipe them dry. From time to time, also
clean the charging unit with a damp
cloth
