Brushing modes (depending on model)
Your toothbrush offers different brushing modes to
best meet your individual oral care needs.
«Daily Clean»
Exceptional mouth cleaning
«Sensitive»
Gentle, yet thorough cleaning for
sensitive areas
«Whitening»
Exceptional polishing for occasional
or everyday use
How to switch between brushing modes:
• When pressing the on/off button (5) your tooth-
brush automatically starts in the «Daily Clean»
mode.
• To switch to the «Sensitive» and «Whitening»
mode, successively press the on/off button.
• To turn off your toothbrush from the «Whitening»
mode, push the on/off button once more.
• If you wish to turn off your toothbrush from either
the «Daily Clean» or «Sensitive»mode, push and
hold down the on/off button until the motor stops.
Brushing technique
Attach the brush head (7) to the toothbrush handle.
You can use any kind of toothpaste. To avoid
splashing, first guide the brush head to your teeth
before switching on the appliance. Guide the brush
head slowly from tooth to tooth, spending a few
seconds each tooth surface. Brush both the gums
and the teeth; first the outsides, then the insides and
finally the chewing surfaces. Do not press too hard
or scrub.
In the first days of using the toothbrush, your gums
may bleed slightly. In general, bleeding should stop
after a few days. Should it persist after 2 weeks,
please consult your dentist or dental hygienist. If you
have sensitive teeth and gums, Oral-B recommends
using the «Sensitive» mode (depending on model).
Pressure Sensor
Helping protect your teeth and gums from hard
brushing, your toothbrush has a pressure control
feature installed (c). If too much pressure is applied,
the red pressure sensor light (6) will light up
reminding you to reduce pressure. In addition you
will also hear a different sound while brushing.
Periodically check the operation of the pressure
sensor by pressing lightly on the brush head during
use.
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second intervals
reminds you to brush all four quadrants of your
mouth equally (d).
A long stuttering sound indicates the end of the
professionally recommended 2-minute brushing
time.
The elapsed brushing time is memorised, even when
the handle is briefly switched off during brushing.
When pausing longer than 30 seconds the timer
resets to the initial starting point.
Brush heads and accessories (depending on
model)
The Oral-B Professional Care offers you a variety of
brush heads and accessories, allowing you to select
those which best meet your oral care needs.
Replacement brush heads and accessories are
available in stores that sell Oral-B products.
Oral-B Precision Clean brush head
The Oral-B Precision Clean brush head
features outstanding oscillating-rotating
action to effectively clean your teeth,
clean along the gumline and in hard-to-
reach areas such as behind teeth. The compact
round brush head surrounds each tooth for a
thorough clean.
Oral-B Sensitive brush head
The Oral-B Sensitive brush head provides
thorough cleaning for sensitive teeth and
gums. It has an extra soft bristle texture
that is gentle on teeth and gums.
Oral-B 3D White brush head
The Oral-B 3D White brush head is
specifically designed to polish and
naturally whiten your teeth by removing
surface stains caused by coffee, tea
and tobacco.
We do not recommend using the Oral-B 3D White
brush head with braces. Children under 12 years old
should not use the Braun Oral-B 3D White brush
head.
Oral-B brush heads feature blue INDICATOR
bristles to help you monitor brush head replace-
ment need. With thorough brushing, twice a day for
two minutes, the light blue color will fade halfway
approximately within 3 months, signaling it is time to
change the brush head.
Cleaning recommendations
After brushing rinse your brush head or accessory
carefully under running water for some seconds with
the handle switched on. Switch off the handle and
remove the brush head or accessory. Clean both
parts separately under running water (e); then wipe
them dry before reassembling the toothbrush. Put
the toothbrush handle back on the charger base.
B Using your irrigator
Before using the irrigator first time, fill the water
container (17) and allow the water to run through
