Oral-B has developed specialised handles and replacement heads to ensure the safe trial of its toothbrush. A sealing insert within the head helps prevent saliva entering the handle. To provide extra protection a disposable sheath covers the handle itself. After cleaning and disinfecting, in


line with international standards, the handle is then ready to be used again with a fresh head. Each TestDrive kit contains the specialized handle, 50 replacement heads, 55 sheaths and a cleaning a disinfection instruction manual. These will be


available to limited practices from July 2014.

Keeping your patients on track between appointments


Oral-B’s new SmartSeries electric toothbrush allows dental professionals to programme patients’ brushing routines onto their mobile to ensure they follow professional guidance between appointments.


Control is firmly passed to the patient, but under the guidance of dental professionals. Brushing duration, mode and problem zones can all be highlighted and the information easily retrieved. Moreover, the brush can store up to 20 brushing sessions so you don’t need to have your phone in the bathroom; the data will simply be transferred the next time the app is connected to the toothbrush! With patients’ consent, professionals can now access brushing data to gage the level of compliance and help patients identify areas for improvement. Users need not worry about their battery life draining, as the brush uses a Bluetooth 4.0, which uses significantly less energy than the traditional version.
