Have you wondered how you can improve your brushing skills in order to further your dental health? Well, now there’s a product that not only shows you problem areas in your brushing technique, but also has several more advanced features to help you brush more effectively. Dr. Jenny Yoo-Park and the staff at Palo Alto Orthodontics near Stanford, CA would like to introduce you to the latest innovation in oral care technology: the Pro 5000 Electric Toothbrush from Oral-B!
As opposed to a regular toothbrush, the Pro 5000 removes up to 300% more plaque along the gum line. Its’ interchangeable CrossAction round brush heads are perfectly angled for a much more precise clean. It also provides real-time feedback, in order to show you which areas to focus on and how long to brush.
Depending on user preference, the toothbrush can be set to operate in five different modes- Daily Clean, Gum Care, Sensitive, Whitening, and Deep Clean. The rechargeable SmartSeries handle is filled with sensors that provide feedback to enhance your brushing experience. These sensors tell you when you brush too hard with pressure sensor alerts. The in-handle timer will pulse every 30 seconds to let you know when to switch areas of the mouth. In addition, the Pro 5000 can be connected to a smartphone through wireless Bluetooth connection for use with Oral-B’s app (which is available for free from the app store). The app is featured to work in 4 different modes:
Motivation- Brush the dentist-recommended 2 minutes with entertaining news and weather, plus helpful oral care tips and rewards.
Focus- Focuses brushing on your most important areas by allowing you to work with your dental professional and set time in each quadrant of the mouth.
Tracking- Monitor your brushing habits over time with intuitive graphs and charts, and store up to 6 months of your personal brushing data.
Sensing- The Triple Pleasure Sensor alerts you when you brush too hard to prevent harmful over-brushing.
Christina at Palo Alto Orthodontics wants to tell you all how excited she is about her new Oral-B toothbrush: “We had a ‘Lunch-and-Learn’ a few weeks ago with our Oral-B representative. She came in and gave us all a demonstration as well as some information about the wonderful toothbrushes. Our office is so excited about this great product that we just had to make them available for our patients. All of our staff bought one, and as soon as mine arrived, I hurried home to unwrap it and set it up. It connects to my phone to show me what areas I might need to work on more. My teeth feel so clean after I’ve brushed! I can’t wait to recommend these to our patients!”
The Oral-B Pro 5000 is designed to improve brushing habits, and give you the best overall dental cleaning experience.
