Using the appliance
Useful tips
◗ Gel toothpastes are recommended for optimal product
performance.
◗ Place the brush head in your mouth before turning on your
Sonicare and keep your mouth closed during brushing, otherwise
toothpaste may splatter.
◗ You may experience a slight tickling or tingling sensation when
using an electronic toothbrush such as Sonicare for the first time.
As you become accustomed to brushing with Sonicare this
sensitivity will diminish.
◗ A fully charged Sonicare will provide approximately 2 weeks of
typical use (2 minutes of brushing twice a day), making it easy to
take your Sonicare along without the charger.
Remember that voltage converters and plug adapters DO NOT
guarantee voltage compatibility. Always check for voltage compatibility.
Tips for special needs
Stain removal
In areas where excess staining occurs, spend extra brushing time to
assist with stain removal.
Braces
C
◗ 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.
