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 (Fig.
9)).
8 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 can also brush your tongue, with
the toothbrush turned on or off, as you prefer (Fig. 10).
Your Philips Sonicare is safe to use on:
- Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when used on braces).
- Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers).
Note: Ensure that braces or dental restorations are properly adhered
and not compromised. If not, braces or dental restorations may be
damaged when they come into contact with the brush head.
Note: When the Philips Sonicare is used in clinical studies, the default
2-minute Clean mode with high intensity must be selected. The
handle should be fully charged and the Easy-start feature
deactivated.
