How to Use Your Sonicare Elite Electric Toothbrush
Knowing how to use Philips Sonicare Elite Electric Toothbrushes is not merely as simple as turning it on and going for it.
This electric toothbrush has many qualities that the user should be aware of.
Here a few tips and tricks on using your Sonicare Elite Electric Toothbrush effectively.
Speed and Your Lip Position The leading quality that will become apparent upon its first use is the speed at which the brush turns.
If you brush your teeth with your lips separated, then the toothpaste will just be flinged out of your mouth.
For this reason once you turn on your new toothbrush, keep your lips as closed as much as possible.
This will help the toothpaste to stay in your mouth and penetrate the areas between your teeth and under the gums.
Toothpaste Trick If the Sonicare Elite Electric Toothbrush is your first powered tooth cleaning device there is another tip you should be aware of.
To ensure all of your teeth are exposed to the toothpaste, you need to take the toothpaste and place it in all 4 quadrants of your mouth with the toothbrush before you turn it on.
This will better help distribute the toothpaste.
Once your electric toothbrush is on, the speed of the brush head will reach up to 31,000 vibrations a minute.
This will cause the paste in the area you are working on to liquefy.
This is great for the hard to reach areas you are working on, but the rest of your teeth will be denied enough toothpaste for a sufficient cleaning process to occur, unless you have already distributed it around your mouth.
How to Hold Your Toothbrush The vibrating action of the Sonicare Elite Electric Toothbrush is what will clean your teeth.
You job is to guide this device around your mouth.
Most dentists recommend that you spend 30 seconds in each of the 4 quadrants of your mouth (totaling 2 minutes).
You need to get used to just positioning the toothbrush in the correct areas of your teeth for the maximum cleaning.
Remember, you no longer need to brush vigorously with this brush because of the vibrating motion.
The toothbrush itself will do the actual cleaning process for you.
When You're Done When you have completed the 2 minute cleaning process of your teeth with the Sonicare Elite Electric Toothbrush, you will then need to prepare it for the next time it is to be used.
This requires you to clean the brush head of all toothpaste that has not been dispersed already.
You will also need to check the power light so you can recharge the brush if its power level is low.
