How Sonicare works


Patented sonic technology, for healthier teeth and gums

The thinking behind your toothbrush was inspired by the sonic technology used in dental offices.

The result? Sonicare is engineered to deliver superior results and offer dynamic cleaning action to reduce plaque along the gumline that isn't normally reachable by a manual brush or other rotating power brushes.

Your Sonicare is a smart investment in your oral health,
giving you:

  • Healthier gums
  • Superior plaque removal
  • Gentle brushing
  • Naturally whiter teeth
