Note: Keep the center of the brush in contact with the
teeth at all times.
4Gently keep the bristles placed on the teeth and in the
gumline. Brush your teeth with small back and forth
motion so the bristles reach between the teeth.
Continue this motion throughout your brushing cycle.
Note: The bristles should slightly flare. It is not
recommended to scrub as you would with a manual
toothbrush.
5To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt the
brush handle semi-upright and make several vertical
overlapping brushing strokes on each tooth.
Note: To make sure you brush evenly throughout the
mouth, divide your mouth into 4 sections using the
QuadPacer feature (see chapter ‘Features’).
6Begin brushing in section 1 (outside upper teeth) and
brush for 30 seconds before you move to section 2
(inside upper teeth). Continue brushing in section 3
(outside lower teeth) and brush for 30 seconds before
you move to section 4 (inside lower teeth).
7After you have completed the brushing cycle, you can
spend additional time brushing the chewing surfaces
of your teeth and areas where staining occurs. You
can also brush your tongue, with the toothbrush
turned on or off, as you prefer.
Your Philips Sonicare toothbrush should be safe to
use on braced (brush heads wear out sooner when
used on braces) and dental restorations (fillings,
crowns, veneers) if they are properly adhered and not
compromised. If a problem occurs, please follow up
with a dental professional.
Note: When the Philips Sonicare toothbrush is used in
clinical studies, it must be used in Clean mode with the
handle fully charged and the EasyStart feature
deactivated.
