Using the toothbrush
The toothbrush can be used with any leading brand of toothpaste. However, we do not recommend toothpastes with whitening agents.
•To avoid splashing, guide the brushhead to your teeth before switching the appliance on.
•Slowly guide the brushhead from tooth to tooth, spending a few seconds on each tooth surface.
•Brush the gums as well as the teeth, first the outsides, then the insides and 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.
Memory timer
An incorporated timer memorises the elapsed brushing time, even when the handle is briefly (max. 30 sec) switched off. After two minutes, the timer signals by a short stutter.
Pressure Sensor
If you apply too much pressure, the oscillating movement will continue, but the pulsation will stop. There is a noticeable change in feeling and sound when the Pressure Sensor is activated.
During the first days of using the appliance, 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 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 colour on the INDICATOR® bristles will disappear
