Highlights

A deep clean however you brush

Old habits can be hard to break, except when
you're brushing with next generation FlexCare
Platinum. Thanks to the innovative
AdaptiveClean brush head and intuitive
pressure sensor that are at the core of our
adaptive cleaning technology, even hard-to­reach trouble spots become easy to care for.
The bristles of the AdaptiveClean brush head
curve around your teeth and gums for up to 4x
more surface contact** and up to 10x more
plaque removal. If you're brushing too hard, the
pressure sensor makes the toothbrush handle
gently pulsate so you can be gentle to your
gums while being tough on plaque.

AdaptiveClean brush head

Our AdaptiveClean brush head is the only
electric toothbrush head that can follow the
unique shape of your teeth and gums. With
soft flexible si des made of rubber, this brush
head can follow every curve. It offers up to 4x
more surface contact and up to 10x more
plaque removal along the gum line and
between teeth. As the brush tracks along the
gum line, it absorbs any excessive brushing
pressure you might apply so you can be gentle
on gums however you brush.

Intuitive pressure sensor

You might not notice if you're brushing too
hard, but your FlexCare Platinum toothbrush
will. If you apply too much pressure, the
intuitive pressure sensor will make the
toothbrush handle gently vibrate so you know
exactly when to adopt a softer touch. In
studies, 7 out of 10 aggressive brushers
successfully reduced their brushing pressure
thanks to the pressure sensor.

Customized brushing experience

With three intensity settings and three cleaning
modes, FlexCare Platinum offers optimal
comfort as you get a truly deep clean.
If you need to pay extra attention to trouble
spots, the three-minute Deep Clean mode
delivers exceptional results. Use Clean mode
for a superb everyday clean, or White mode for
stain removal. Set the intensity to Low, Medium
or High according to your personal preference.

Deep Clean mode

Our all-new Deep Clean mode delivers an
exceptional clean in hard-to-reach places. The
unique motion of the brush head in this mode

plus an extended three-minute brushing time
makes it the ideal choice when you want to
pay extra attention to trouble spots.

Sonic technology

At over 31,000 strokes per minute, next
generation FlexCare Platinum delivers a
superior clean that you'll both see and feel.
The dynamic cleaning action of our sonic
technology drives fluid deep between teeth
and along the gum line. As your FlexCare
Platinum brush gently massages the gums, it
stimulates blood circulation and helps to
dislodge plaque. You get a powerful yet gentle
clean that delivers clinically proven results.
