teeth with one of the Oral-B oscillating-ro-

In the first days of using any electric tooth-
brush, your gums may bleed slightly. In gen-
eral, bleeding should stop after a few days.
Should it persist after 2 weeks, please con-
sult your dentist or dental hygienist. If you
have sensitive teeth and/or gums, Oral-B
recommends using the «Sensitive» mode
(optional in combination with an Oral-B
«Sensitive» brush head).
