Using your Oral-B Pro battery toothbrush effectively involves following a few simple steps to ensure a thorough clean. The primary steps focus on applying toothpaste and guiding the brush head correctly along your teeth.
Here's a straightforward guide based on recommended usage:
Getting Started with Your Oral-B Pro
To begin, ensure your toothbrush has sufficient battery power. You'll need to prepare the brush head and position it correctly before starting the brushing cycle.
- Apply Toothpaste: Place your preferred toothpaste directly onto the bristles of the brush head.
- Position Before Switching On: To prevent toothpaste from splashing, guide the brush head to your teeth before switching on the brush. This helps keep the toothpaste on the brush and focused on cleaning your teeth.
Brushing Technique
Once the brush head is against your teeth, you can switch on the toothbrush. The key is to guide the vibrating or oscillating head slowly and methodically.
- Start with Outside Surfaces: Begin cleaning with the outside surfaces of the teeth. These are typically the easiest to access initially.
- Guide Slowly from Tooth to Tooth: Guide the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth, allowing the bristles to effectively clean each surface.
- Hold in Place: Hold the brush head in place for a few seconds against each tooth before moving on to the next one. This allows the brush's action to work on each tooth surface individually, removing plaque and debris more effectively than simply sweeping across the teeth.
- Clean All Surfaces: Remember to clean the inside surfaces and the chewing surfaces of your teeth as well, following the same slow, tooth-by-tooth method.
By following these steps, you can ensure you are using your Oral-B Pro battery toothbrush correctly for an optimal clean.
