Using your toothbrush
Brushing technique
Wet brush head and apply toothpaste;
you can use any kind of toothpaste.
To avoid splashing, guide the brush
head to your teeth before switching
on the appliance (picture 2). Guide the
brush head slowly from tooth to tooth,
spending a few seconds on each tooth
surface.
Brush the gums as well as the teeth,
first the outsides, then the insides,
finally the chewing surfaces (picture 3).
Do not press too hard or scrub.
In the first few days of using any
electric 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.
Professional Timer
A short stuttering sound at 30-second
intervals reminds you to brush equally
all four quadrants of your mouth. A
long stuttering sound indicates the end
of the professionally recommended
2-minute brushing time (picture 4). 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.
Pressure Sensor
Your toothbrush has a pressure control
feature installed. If too much pressure
is applied, the oscillating movement of
the brush head will continue but the
pulsation will stop. In addition you will
hear a different sound while brushing.
Brush heads
Oral-B offers you a variety of different
Oral-B brush heads that fit your Oral-B
toothbrush handle.
Oral-B Precision Clean brush head
(D16.513.1 PK/GR/OR)
with a curved bristle trim and reaches
deep between teeth at the same time.

Oral-B ProWhite brush head
(D16.523.1 OR/PK)
use the Oral-B ProWhite brush head.

INDICATOR
monitor brush head replacement need.
With thorough brushing, twice a day
for two minutes, the blue color will
fade halfway approximately within
3 months, indicating the need to
exchange your brush head. If the
bristles splay before the color recedes,
you may exert too much pressure on
teeth and gums (picture 3).
We do not recommend using the
Oral-B Floss Action or Oral-B Pro
White brush head with braces. You
may use the Oral-B Ortho brush head,
specifically designed to clean around
braces and wires.

Cleaning Recommendations

After brushing, rinse your brush head
for several seconds under running
water with the handle switched on.
Switch off the handle and remove
the brush head. Rinse both parts
separately under running water then
wipe them dry before reassembling the
toothbrush. From time to time also
clean the charging unit with a damp
cloth (picture 5). Never place the
charger in dishwasher or water.
