You may also brush your tongue, with the toothbrush turned on or
off, as you prefer.
Tips for specific oral care needs
Stain removal
In areas where staining occurs, spend extra brushing time to assist with
stain removal.
Braces
The brush should be placed at a 45-degree angle between your brackets
and gumline. Using light pressure, gently move the bristles in a small circular
motion so that the long bristles reach between your teeth for 2 seconds.
Then gently turn (roll) the brush handle so the bristles clean the bracket
and the rest of the tooth before you move the bristles to the next tooth.
Continue this until you have brushed all of your teeth. Please note that
brush heads will wear out sooner when used on braces.
Dental restorations (dental work)
Use Sonicare on dental restorations (such as implants, caps, crowns, bridges
and fillings) as you would on your normal tooth surfaces to reduce plaque
build-up and improve gum health. Work the bristles around all areas of the
restoration for thorough cleaning.
Periodontal pockets
Your dental professional may have indicated that you have periodontal
pockets, deep pockets where plaque bacteria collect. If this is the case, after
brushing for a full 2 minutes, spend extra time gently brushing these areas
to improve your gum health.
Features
Easy-start
\
brushing power ramp-up
All Sonicare models come with the Easy-start feature activated,
which helps you get used to brushing with Sonicare.
Brushing power will gently increase to full power over the first
1 brushings.
The Easy-start feature is active if you hear 2 beeps immediately after
turning on your Sonicare. Once the appliance has reached optimal
brushing power (after the 14th brushing), you will no longer hear the
double beep at the beginning of your brushing routine.
Note: Each of the first 14 brushings must be at least 1 minute in length to
properly advance through the Easy-start ramp-up cycle.
To deactivate or activate the Easy-start feature:
1
Attach your brush head to the handle.
Place the handle in the plugged-in charger.
To deactivate Easy-start feature: while handle is still in the charger,
press and hold the power button for seconds. You will hear 1 beep
to indicate that the Easy-start feature has been deactivated.
To reactivate Easy-start: while handle is still in the charger, press
and hold the power button for seconds. You will hear beeps to
indicate that the Easy-start feature has been activated.
