How to choose a toothbrush head? How often should the brush head be replaced?

The electric toothbrush head should be selected according to your preferences! Is it more comfortable to use a smaller or larger brush head? Soft or extra-soft bristles? Are there any specific needs—pigmentation on the teeth, a sensitive mouth, or orthodontic appliances? Sonicare has brush heads for every need. All Philips Sonicare brush heads are compatible with all Sonicare toothbrushes.

For children, there are separate heads: For Kids 3+ and 7+ years. For children, a smaller 3+ brush head is generally recommended, as it allows for easier movement within the mouth.

For best results, the toothbrush head must be replaced, like most manual toothbrushes, every three months.

All Philips Sonicare heads feature indicator bristles that fade in color when it is time to replace the head. Additionally, most models include a brush head replacement sensor that provides a light signal on the handle.
