Gum Protection system

1

The Gum Protection system guarantees that you do not exert too much pressure on the teeth and gums.

C

If you exert too much pressure on the toothbrush, you will feel and hear the brush head flexing backwards.As soon as you reduce the pressure, the brush head will return to its normal position.This will protect your gums. This will probably happen a few times when you first start using the toothbrush. 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.
