  • We also recommend using a mouth wash.
  • Consult your dentist if you feel any sensitivity while using the appliance for the first time.

Cleaning and care 

Cleaning

The sonic electric toothbrush removes plaque more precisely and effectively than conventional manual toothbrushes due to the high speed of the brushing movements (up to 48.000 rpm) on the surface of the teeth.

Discolouration of the teeth from coffee, tea or tobacco can be removed in a natural way.

Teeth, tongue and gums can be cleaned and cared for carefully.

Warning

  • Never use gasoline, solvent, abrasive cleaning agents, metal objects or hard brushes to clean the appliance.

Note

  • Replace the brush head when the bristles become bent and distorted and the wear indicator becomes brighter at the side of the bristles. We recommend you to do this every 3 months.
  • Rinse the brushhead after each usage.
