Please note: the «polish» mode (deluxe model only) is best used with a Braun Oral-B Stain Care brush head. Once the Braun Oral-B Stain Care brush head is attached, press the on/off button and your toothbrush automatically starts in the «polish» mode (please see «Brush heads»).

Brushing technique

•Guide the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth.

•Hold the brush head in place for a few seconds before moving on to the next tooth.

•Brush the gums as well as the teeth, first the outsides, then the insides, finally the chewing surfaces.

•Do not press too hard or scrub, simply let the brush do all the work.

When you finish brushing, the total brushing time will be displayed for 30 seconds before the display switches back to the time mode. To directly get to the time mode, clear the brushing time display by pushing the mode button.

In the first days of using the toothbrush, 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. If you have sensitive teeth and gums, Braun Oral-B recommends using the «sensitive» mode.

Brush heads

The Braun Oral-B FlossAction (a) brush head is recommended for everyday deep cleaning. For occasional or everyday polishing, use the Braun Oral-B Stain Care (j) brush head (not with all models). Please note: children under 12 should not use the Braun Oral-B Stain Care brush head.

Both brush heads contain a «smart chip» to communicate with the electronics inside the toothbrush handle. Therefore, your toothbrush automatically switches to the appropriate brushing mode for the attached brush head. Nevertheless, you can select other brushing modes to customize your routine.

Do not use these brush heads with braces. We recommend using the Braun Oral-B Ortho brush

head, which is specifically designed to clean around braces and wires.
