Using your Sonicare
Brushing instructions
1 Wet the bristles and apply a small amount of toothpaste.
2 Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle
towards the gumline (Fig. 5).
3 Press the power on/off button to turn on the Sonicare.
4 Apply light pressure to maximize Sonicare’s effectiveness and let
the Sonicare toothbrush do the brushing for you. Do not scrub.
5 Gently move the brush head slowly across the teeth in a small back
and forth motion so the longer bristles reach between the teeth.
Continue this motion throughout the brushing cycle.
Note: To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide the mouth
into 4 sections using the Quadpacer feature (see chapter ‘Features’),
(specific types only).
6 Begin brushing in section 1 (outside top teeth) and brush for
30 seconds before moving to section 2 (inside top teeth).
Continue brushing in section 3 (outside bottom teeth) and brush
for 30 seconds before moving to section 4 (inside bottom
teeth) (Fig. 6).
Note: After you have completed the brushing cycle, you can spend additional
time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and areas where staining
occurs. You may also brush your tongue, with the toothbrush turned on or off,
as you prefer.
Your Sonicare is safe to use on:
- Braces (brush heads may wear out more quickly when used on
braces)
- Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers, implants)
Note: When the Sonicare is used in clinical studies, the handle has to be fully
charged and the Easy-start feature must be deactivated.
