C 4 To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide your mouth into 4 sections: outside top, inside top, outside bottom and inside bottom teeth. Begin brushing in section 1 (outside top teeth) and brush for 30 seconds before moving to section 2 (inside top teeth). Continue brushing for 30 seconds in each section progressing through all 4 sections until you've brushed for 2 minutes.

5After the 2-minute brushing cycle is complete, additional time

should be spent brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth. Press the power button to turn the brush on and off as needed.

To clean your mouth more completely, 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 excess staining occurs, spend extra brushing time to assist with stain removal.

brackets and 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 turn (roll) the brush handle so the bristles clean the bracket and the rest of the tooth before you glide 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 natural tooth surfaces to reduce plaque build-up and improve gum health.Work the bristles around all the 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.
