Tips for special needs

 

 

Stain removal

 

 

In areas where excess staining occurs, spend extra brushing time to

 

 

assist with stain removal.

 

C

Braces

 

The brush should be placed at an angle between your 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.

 

 

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.

 

 

Brushing technique

 

 

 

 

 

Follow these simple steps to maximize your brushing experience.

1Before turning the Sonicare on, place the bristles of the brush head along the gumline with the longer bristles placed between your teeth.

C 2 Position the bristles of the brush head towards the gumline and close your mouth.

3Hold the handle with a light grip and turn the Sonicare on.

4Gently move the vibrating brush head in a slightly circular motion so the longer bristles reach between your teeth.After 2 seconds, glide the bristles to the next section and pause while you gently circulate the bristles again. Continue this routine throughout your 2-minute brushing cycle to effectively remove plaque in those hard-to-reach places.
