A standard electric brush rotates or oscillates its head. A sonic brush vibrates the bristles thousands of times a second, which moves fluid (saliva and water) between your teeth and along the gumline to clean spots the bristles don't physically reach — gently, without hard scrubbing.

It uses Brushd. recyclable brush heads. When a head wears out you swap it and send it back to be recycled rather than binning it. Heads are available individually or on Subscribe & Save, delivered in plastic-free packaging.

Up to 60 days on a single charge with twice-daily brushing. It charges over USB-C, so you can top it up even when you're on the go. We recommend using a standard 5V port for charging as this helps prolong battery life.

Yes. It's rated IPX[7], which means it's fully waterproof and safe to use in the shower or rinse under the tap.

It runs a 2-minute timer split into four 30-second sections. Every 30 seconds the brush gives a short pulse to tell you to move to the next part of your mouth — so if you picture your mouth in four sections, you spend 30 seconds on each. At 2 minutes the pulsing stops to let you know your brushing time is up.

Yes — start on the Soft mode, which runs at a lower intensity, and move up to Medium or Hard whenever you're ready. If you have a specific dental condition, check with your dentist first.

We recommend every 3 months, or sooner if the bristles look splayed. A worn head cleans far less effectively. Subscribe & Save makes sure a fresh one arrives right on schedule.

Any toothpaste you like — paste or tablet. Apply it to the brush head and brush as you normally would.

The handle comes with a 12-month return-to-base warranty — if it develops a technical fault within that time, you send it back to us and we'll repair or replace it. Unused items can be returned within 30 days. The warranty does not cover wear and tear.
