Brushing Technique
Rotadent Contour MicroAccess
filaments reach between teeth
and below the gum line to sweep
out harmful bacteria, and the
360-degree rotation helps maintain
contact with each tooth. Rotadent
Contour requires a tooth-by-tooth
brushing technique rather than a
scrubbing technique as explained
below:
• Hold your Rotadent Contour so
the brush tip meets your gum
line and the tooth surface at a
90-degree angle.
• To thoroughly clean each tooth,
make “M” motions on the top
teeth to massage the gumline
and “W” motions on the
bottom teeth.
• To make sure you brush evenly,
divide your mouth into four
sections (or quadrants). Brush
each quadrant thoroughly for
30 seconds.
• Rotadent Contour
automatically shuts o when
two minutes and 30 seconds
has been reached, you turn
o the unit, or you replace the
handle back in the charging base.
Some individuals may experience
a mild tingling sensation, irritation
or minor bleeding when first using
Rotadent Contour. This should stop
after a few days of use. If bleeding
and/or irritation continue after one
week, please contact your dental
professional.

Brush Heads
Your Rotadent Contour includes one hollow-tip brush
head and one short-tip brush head. Mouthwash
or gel-based toothpaste is recommended. Paste
cleaners will decrease the life and eectiveness
of the brush heads. To maintain eectiveness and
reduce bacteria buildup, it is recommended you
replace your brush head every three months.
Hollow-tip Brush Head – Cleans and polishes large
surfaces of teeth and sweeps under gum line. The
hollow area holds medicament and aids in oral
medicament application.
Short-tip Brush Head – Cleans and polishes with
the same benefits of the hollow-tip, but especially
eective around braces
Long-tip Brush Head – Best for patients with large
spaces between teeth, orthodontics, fixed bridges or
periodontal patients. Long-tip is available separately
from your dental professional or Zila.
To order replacement brush heads, please visit your
dental professional or contact Zila at 800.228.5595
or rotadent.com.
Special Oral Care Needs
Rotadent Contour is safe for use with
orthodontics and dental restorations
(veneers, crowns, implants, filling and
bridges). If you have specific questions
related to your needs, please consult your
dental professional.

Cleaning Your Rotadent Contour
To clean the brush head, remove
the brush head and rinse
separately under warm running
water. Use a damp cloth to wipe
down the handle.
Unplug the charging base before
cleaning. Only use a damp cloth to
wipe the surface of the charging
base. Do not clean the charging
base by immersing it under
water. Only plug in the charging
base when it is completely dry.
Battery Recycling
When the power handle has reached the end of
its useful life, please obey local recycling laws by
recycling the rechargeable battery. Do not dispose of
the battery in your normal household waste.
Call 1.800.8.BATTERY (1.800.8.228.8379) for the
location of a recycling center nearest you for proper
battery disposal.
