4 Apply a small amount of toothpaste on the bristles. (Fig. 6)
5 Place the toothbrush bristles against the teeth at a slight angle
(45 degrees), pressing firmly to make the bristles reach the
gumline or slightly beneath the gumline. (Fig. 7) A change in
vibration (and a slight change in sound) alerts you when you
apply too much pressure while brushing.
Note: Keep the center of the brush in contact with the teeth at
all times.
6 Press the power on/off button to turn on the Philips Sonicare.
(Fig. 8)
7 Gently 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. (Fig. 9)
Note: The bristles should slightly flare. Do not scrub.
8 To clean the inside surfaces of the front teeth, tilt the brush
handle semi-upright and make several vertical overlapping
brushing strokes on each tooth. (Fig. 10)
9 To make sure you brush evenly throughout the mouth, divide
the mouth into 4 sections using the Quadpacer feature. (Fig. 11)
The quadpacer feature beeps after 30 seconds.
10 Brush for the full 2 minutes following the Quadpacer. (Fig. 12)
After 2 minutes, the toothbrush will automatically shut off.
In gum care mode, after 2 minutes the handle will continue to
brush for an additional minute so you can gently stimulate and
massage your gums.
- After you have completed the brushing cycle, you can spend
additional time brushing the chewing surfaces of your teeth and
areas where staining occurs. (Fig. 13)
Your Philips Sonicare toothbrush is safe to use on:
- Braces (brush heads wear out sooner when used on braces)
- Dental restorations (fillings, crowns, veneers)
