Functions of Your Toothbrush

Introduction

The Sonic Vibration Toothbrush is

an electric toothbrush with sonic vibration* of approximately 31,000 brush strokes/minute.

* Sonic vibration in acoustic wave field

When you first begin using the toothbrush, you may experience slight bleeding of the gums even though your gums may be healthy. This is because your gums are receiving stimulation by the toothbrush for the first time. The bleeding should stop after one or two weeks of use. Bleeding that persists for more than two weeks may be indication of an abnormal condition of your gums, such as pyorrhea. In this case, stop using the toothbrush and consult your dentist.

Soft start function

To prevent toothpaste from spattering and to get accustomed to the high speed vibration, the toothbrush will gradually reach the selected speed and vibration approximately 2 seconds after it starts operating.

● This function is only in NORMAL mode.

30-second brushing notification timer function

The toothbrush will pause once at 30-second intervals to indicate the brushing time.

The main unit pauses twice at 2-minute intervals then starts again.

● GUMCARE mode does not have this function.

Example of brushing sequence

Divide your teeth into 4 parts (upper and lower, left and right), and brush one part at a time in order such as "① front of the teeth", "② biting plane of the teeth", and "③ back of the teeth" spending 30 seconds on each.

By brushing the above 4 parts for 30 seconds each (about 2 minutes), you can evenly brush your teeth without missing any spots in your mouth.

Sonic vibration toothbrush (ion type)

Touching the ion panel with your hand when you hold the main unit to brush your teeth causes a very weak electric current (ionic current) to flow between your teeth and the brush head.

When in use, the main unit of this toothbrush emits a very weak electric current in the oral cavity. The combination of the sonic wave from the linear motor and the force of ions improve its ability to remove dental plaque.

Ion panel [⊕ (Positive) electrode]

Brush head [⊖ (Negative) electrode]

[⊖ (Negative) electrode] Very weak electric current Teeth Mechanism that generates very weak electric current

The ion lamp turns on or blinks to indicate whether ionic power* is being applied to the teeth.

* Ion power is a weak electric current passed through the ions in saliva.

Pressing the power switch activates the mechanism that generates the very weak electric current, and the ion lamp blinks on and off.

Putting the brush in your mouth passes a very weak electric current in the oral cavity, ionic power is activated and the ion lamp turns on.

- You can easily see the lamp status if you use a mirror while brushing.

- Ionic power is not employed with the point brush. (The ion lamp blinks.)
