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.

the Sonicare toothbrush do the brushing for you. Do not
scrub.

6 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.
7 After 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.
Remember to floss daily.
