Thanks to this feature the toothbrush also tracks your usage and gives a personalized reminder when you need to replace your brush head for the best oral care results.

Your power toothbrush is equipped with 5 different modes to accommodate all your oral care needs (some models come with 4 brushing modes only). The following modes are available:

and brush for 20 seconds, on both the outer and inner surfaces, before you move to the upper front teeth (segment 2).

You will hear a beep after each 20-second interval, to indicate that you should move to the next segment.

White+ mode

White+ is a 2-minute 40-seconds mode, recommended to be used with intensity level 3 and the Premium White brush head. In order to reach optimal results, follow the instructions below.

toothbrush switches to polishing mode automatically.

3 To polish your teeth, brush the outer surface of

your upper teeth for 20 seconds (segment 2) and then brush the outer surface of your lower teeth for 20 seconds (segment 5). The polishing motion used in this part of the mode will feel and sound different from the first two minutes of the mode.

The brushing motion used in this part of the mode will feel and sound different from the first two minutes of the mode.

DeepClean+ mode

DeepClean+ mode length depends on whether or not the handle is connected to the app. In connected mode DeepClean+ runs for two minutes and provides BrushPacer feedback every 20 seconds. In non-connected mode DeepClean+ runs for three minutes and provides BrushPacer feedback every 30 seconds. In order to reach optimal results, follow the instructions below when brushing non-connected.

with a back and forth motion. Clean as far back as comfortable.

Based on the brush head you attach, the mode will be selected automatically. If you want to adjust the mode or intensity manually, you can do this by using the mode/intensity button. Press the mode/intensity button before brushing to change the mode, and press it while brushing to adjust the intensity level. Your selection will be remembered next time you attached the same brush head. If you want to go back to the initial recommended settings for your brush head, manually change it to the recommended setting described above.

If you wish to change to a different intensity, you can do so by pressing the mode/intensity button while brushing. For optimal results it is recommended to use the automatically selected intensity. The intensity cannot be changed as long as the handle is powered off or paused.
