Next, to take optimal care for your gums, brush the outer and
inner surfaces of your upper right back teeth for 20 seconds
(segment 1), then brush the outer and inner surfaces of your
upper left back teeth for 20 seconds (segment 3).
Continue brushing the outer and inner surfaces of your lower
right back teeth for 20 seconds (segment 4), followed by another
20 seconds on the outer and inner surfaces of your lower left
back teeth (segment 6). The brushing motion used in this part of
the mode will feel and sound different from the first two minutes
of the mode.
De mode
De mode length depends on whether or not the handle
is connected to the app. In connected mode De runs for
two minutes and provides BrushPacer feedback every 20 seconds.
In non-connected mode De runs for three minutes and
provides BrushPacer feedback every 30 seconds. In order to reach
optimal results, follow the instructions below when brushing
non-connected.
-
Begin brushing in the upper right teeth (segment 1) and brush for
30 seconds, on both the outer and inner surfaces, before you
move to the upper front teeth (segment 2). Continue doing this
for segments 3 to 6 to ensure even brushing in all 6 segments
of the mouth.
Tongue Care mode (specific types only)
Tongue Care is a 20-second mode, recommended to be used with
intensity level 1 and the Tongue Care+ brush head. In order to reach
optimal results, follow the instructions below:
1
Wet the micro bristles and brush your tongue with a back and
forth motion. Clean as far back as comfortable.
2
Rinse your mouth and repeat the procedure two more times.
Based on the brush head you attach, the mode will be selected
automatically. If you want to adjust the mode or intensity manually,
you can do this by using the mode/intensity button. Press the
mode/intensity button before brushing to change the mode, and
press it while brushing to adjust the intensity level. Your selection
will be remembered next time you attached the same brush head.
If you want to go back to the initial recommended settings for
your brush head, manually change it to the recommended setting
described above.
Note: When the Philips Sonicare is used in clinical studies, it must
be used at high intensity in the Clean mode, in White+ mode,
in GumHealth mode, or in unconnected De mode to
achieve the efficacy in plaque removal, stain removal, gum health
or superiority (respectively).
