How does the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush work?
The battery powered Colgate Actibrush toothbrush has a small round head with cup-shaped bristles and special oscillating cleaning action to help clean each tooth individually, and help you effectively clean hard-to-reach places between the teeth and along the gumline.
How does the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush compare to electric toothbrushes?
As with many other such brushes, Colgate Actibrush has a head with an oscillating brushing movement but is battery operated.
Is the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush safe for a child to use?
Actibrush is safe for children to use but adult supervision is required for children under 6. Actibrush is not intended for children under 4 years old.
Do I need to use a special toothpaste when I use the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush?
Colgate Actibrush can be used with any toothpaste except whitening toothpastes that have alumina and may shorten the life of the bristles or the brush.
Can I use the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush on dentures, braces or restorations?
Yes, Colgate Actibrush can be safely used on all three
Is it safe to get the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush wet?
The brush is safe even when fully immersed in water as it is waterproof.
How long will the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush last?
The expected life of the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush power handle is 2-3 years, if used twice a day. Use by more than one individual, more frequent use, or use for increased duration could affect that time span.
How do I know when the batteries need replacing?
The brush may slow down or stop working when the batteries need replacing. Typically, batteries will need to be changed approximately every 2 months with an average use of twice a day.
How do I replace the batteries?
The battery cap is located at the base of the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush. To remove, simply pull cap downwards.
How should I store the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush - upright or on its side?
Colgate Actibrush should be stored upright.
Are there replacement heads available for the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush?
Yes, replacement heads are available. Dentists recommend that a toothbrush be changed at least every 3 months (same as a manual toothbrush). After that time, the brushing head could start to wear, which could result in inadequate brushing and abrasion to gums.
Are there other bristles (soft / firm) available for the Colgate Actibrush toothbrush?
The Colgate Actibrush toothbrush only comes in the soft bristle type. Colgate, as do most dental professionals, recommends soft bristles for all people. It is better to spend a little longer brushing away plaque with a soft brush than risk damaging the gums or tooth enamel with too-hard a brush.
