Brushing technique

Follow these simple steps to maximise your brushing experience.

1

Before you switch on the Sonicare, place the bristles of the brush

45º

head on your gumline at a 45-degree angle.

2

Hold the handle with a light grip and switch on the Sonicare. Gently

 

move the bristles in a small circular motion so that the longer

 

bristles reach between your teeth.After a few seconds, pass the

 

bristles to the next section. Continue this routine throughout the

 

2-minute brushing cycle.

3

To maximise the effectiveness of the Sonicare toothbrush, use light

 

pressure and let the Sonicare do the brushing for you. Do not scrub.

4

To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide

 

your mouth into 4 sections: outside upper teeth, inside upper

 

teeth, outside lower teeth and inside lower teeth. Begin brushing

 

the first section (outside upper teeth) and brush for 30 seconds

 

before moving to the next section (inside upper teeth). Continue

 

brushing the other two sections for 30 seconds each until you have

 

completed the 2-minute brushing cycle.

5

After the 2-minute brushing cycle, you can briefly switch on the

 

Sonicare again to brush the chewing surfaces of your teeth.

6

Press the on/off button to switch the Sonicare on or off as needed.

- You can also brush your tongue with the toothbrush switched on or off, as you prefer.

Tips for specific oral care needs

-Stain removal

For even better stain removal, dedicate a few seconds of extra brushing

time to areas where excess staining occurs.

45º

- Braces

Place the brush head at a 45-degree angle between the brackets and the

gumline. Using light pressure, gently move the bristles in a small circular motion so the longer bristles reach between your teeth for 2 seconds. Then gently roll the brush handle so the bristles clean the bracket and the rest of the tooth. Subsequently, pass the bristles to the next tooth.

Continue this procedure until you have brushed all your teeth. Please note that brush heads wear out sooner when used on braces.

-Dental restorations

Use the Sonicare on dental restorations (such as implants, caps, crowns,

bridges and fillings) as you do on your normal tooth surfaces. Work the

bristles round all areas of the restoration for thorough cleaning.

-Periodontal pockets

Your dentist or dental hygienist may have indicated that you have periodontal pockets, deep pockets where plaque bacteria collect. If this is the case, spend extra time brushing these areas after you have completed the 2-minute brushing cycle to improve your gum health.
