Description
A Brush head (depending on
model) – interchangeable
B On/off switch
C Handle
D Charging unit
Specifications
For voltage specifications
please refer to the bottom of
the charging unit.
Connecting and charging
Your toothbrush has a water-
proof handle, is electrically safe
and designed for use in the
bathroom.
Plug the charging unit (D) into
an electrical outlet. Place the
handle (C) on the charging
unit.
A full charge takes 16 hours
and enables approximately
one week of regular brushing
(twice a day, 2 minutes).
For everyday use, the handle
can be stored on the plugged-
in charging unit to maintain
the toothbrush at full power.
Overcharging is impossible.
However for environmental
reasons, Oral-B recommends
to unplug the charging unit
until the next recharge is
required.
Battery maintenance
To maintain the maximum
capacity of the rechargeable
battery, unplug the charging
unit and discharge the handle
by regular use at least every
6 months.
Using the toothbrush
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 the appliance on (B).
Slowly guide the brush head
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 and finally the
chewing surfaces (1–5).
Brush at least 2 minutes to
thoroughly remove plaque. Do
not press too hard or scrub.
Turn off the handle by
pressing the on/off switch.
Timer (depending on model)
An incorporated timer memo-
rises the elapsed brushing
time. A short stuttering sound
indicates the end of the pro-
fessionally recommended
2-minute brushing time.

Individual brush heads and
accessories
Oral-B offers you a variety
of brush heads which are
available in stores that sell
Oral-B products. Following
brush heads are inter-
changeable and can be used
on your Oral-B Vitality handle.
Oral-B FlossAction brush head
The Oral-B
FlossAction brush
head is recom-
mended for every-
day cleaning. It
features micropulse bristles
that get in hard-to-reach areas
between your teeth, gently
removing hidden plaque.
Oral-B Precision Clean
brush head
The Oral-B
Precision Clean
brush head pro-
vides effective and
gentle cleaning
action for both teeth and gums.
The brush head cups each
tooth with longer and denser
bristles and reaches deep
between teeth at the same
time.
Oral-B Sensitive brush head
The Oral-B
Sensitive brush
head provides
thorough cleaning
for sensitive teeth
and gums. It has an extra soft
bristle texture that is gentle on
teeth and gums.
Oral-B ProWhite brush head
For occasional
or everyday
polishing, please
use the Oral-B
ProWhite brush
head. It features a dentist-
inspired polishing cup to
remove surface stains from
coffee, tea and tobacco for
effective brightening. We do
not recommend using the
Oral-B ProWhite brush head
with braces.
Oral-B Dual Clean brush head
The Oral-B Dual
Clean brush head
offers two types of
cleaning motion in
one. It combines
the oscillating and
pulsating motion
with an additional side-to-side
motion. The oscillation motion
stimulates gums while remov-
ing plague and bacteria. Multi-
angled bristles clean between
teeth and along the gumline.
You can use this brush head
either by moving from tooth
to tooth or apply the same
brushing technique as you do
with any manual toothbrush.
All brush heads feature light
blue INDICATOR™ bristles to
help you monitor brush head
replacement need. With
thorough brushing, twice a day
for two minutes, the blue color
will fade halfway down
approximately in a 3-month
period (I.b). If the bristles splay
before the colour recedes (I.c),
you are exerting too much
pressure on teeth and gums.
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.
