This will probably happen a few times when you
first start using the brush. After some time you
will have discovered the optimal brushing
pressure and the brush head will flex backwards
less often.
Tip: If plaque is removed properly, the gums will
have a pink colour and will firmly surround the
teeth. Healthy gums do not bleed when you eat
or brush your teeth (see also the section
'Optimal dental hygiene'). If, nevertheless, your
gums bleed slightly the first few times you use the
brush, this bleeding will generally stop after a few
days. If it does not, consult your dentist or dental
hygienist.
Minimum brushing time: 2 minutes
In general, 2 minutes will be enough to clean your
teeth properly. Naturally, you can also brush
longer than 2 minutes.
A red pilot light will blink to indicate that
2 minutes have passed (types HX2645,
HX2545, HX2537P and HX2530 only).
Optimal dental hygiene
For optimal dental hygiene, it is recommended to
use dental floss and toothpicks in addition to the
electric toothbrush.
