Product Information

Full details

The Philips Sonicare Series 6100 is a rechargeable sonic toothbrush designed for adults seeking a superior yet gentle clean. Its key benefit is removing up to 10x more plaque than a manual toothbrush, even in hard-to-reach areas, while protecting sensitive gums. A potential caveat is its single included brush head, requiring separate purchases for family use. This toothbrush utilizes advanced sonic technology with multiple modes and intensities to cater to different oral care needs.

FAQs

How often should I replace the brush head?

It is recommended to replace the brush head every three months, or sooner if the bristles become frayed or the brush head replacement indicator lights up.

What is the difference between the two brushing modes?

The 'Daily Care' mode is for general cleaning, while the 'Sensitive' mode provides a gentler clean for users with sensitive teeth or gums.

How do I use the pressure sensor?

The pressure sensor will vibrate if you are applying too much pressure while brushing. Ease up on the pressure until the vibration stops. It is designed to protect your gums and enamel.

What does the SmarTimer and BrushPacer do?

The SmarTimer ensures you brush for the dentist-recommended two minutes. The BrushPacer alerts you every 30 seconds to move to a different section of your mouth for a complete clean.

How long does the battery last?

The built-in Lithium-Ion battery provides up to 21 days of use on a single full charge.

Can I use this toothbrush if I have braces?

While the Sonicare Series 6100 can be used with braces, it is recommended to use a specialized brush head designed for orthodontic care for optimal cleaning around brackets and wires.

Is this toothbrush waterproof?

The toothbrush handle is water-resistant and can be rinsed under tap water, but it should not be submerged in water. The charging base is not waterproof.

Troubleshooting

Toothbrush not turning on

Ensure the toothbrush is charged. Place the handle on the charging base and check if the battery indicator lights up. If not, try a different power outlet.

Weak vibration or reduced cleaning power

The brush head may need replacement. Check the brush head replacement indicator. Ensure the brush head is securely attached to the handle.

Pressure sensor is too sensitive or not activating

Ensure the brush head is properly seated. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

Toothbrush not charging

Verify the charging base is plugged in and receiving power. Clean the charging contacts on both the handle and the base. Try a different power outlet.

Excessive noise during operation

This is typically normal for sonic toothbrushes. If the noise is sudden or unusually loud, check if the brush head is securely attached and not damaged.
