Smart Performance:

Oral-B® iO’s revolutionary micro-vibration technology removes 100% more plaque than a manual brush to give you that professional clean feeling, at home, improving your oral health and contributing to better overall body health​. However, it’s not only about what the iO can do, it’s also about how it makes you feel. Using iO10 is a truly sensorial experience that will transform the act of brushing into something you have to do into something you want to do.

In clinical tests, Oral-B® iO provided a deeper clean of teeth and gums, allowing users to maintain oral health easily and effectively. Versus manual toothbrushes, Oral-B iO users experienced:

• Six times more plaque removal along the gumline

• 100% healthier gums in one week

• Whiter teeth in one week thanks to revolutionary iO™ technology

In a 6-month clinical study:

• 96% of patients using Oral-B® iO moved from non-healthy to healthy gums meaning the longer you use iO, the better off you are.

• By using Oral-B® iO, users have 14.5x higher odds of moving from non-healthy gums to healthy gums compared to a regular manual toothbrush.

• Oral-B® iO removes 62% more plaque than Sonicare DiamondClean SMART along the gumline and 26% more plaque in hard-to-reach areas.

The Oral-B® iO 10 Design:

• Comes in two new galactic-inspired brush designs, cosmic black and stardust white.

• The interactive Colour Display enables easy navigation through the brush features including welcome greetings, language settings and selection of cleaning modes, including sensitive, deep clean and whitening.

• The Smart Pressure Sensor guides users to apply optimal cleaning pressure. The sensor warns of overpressure with a red light and indicates in green when users are applying the optimal cleaning pressure, maximising the effectiveness of Oral-B® iO’s iconic round brush head, inspired by dentist tools.

• The Oral-B® app provides personalized feedback after every brushing session. It enables easy navigation through the brush features and allows a simple set-up of the brushing system. It also allows you to customize your brushing experience within the app, by setting up personal goals to meet your individual needs.

• The Oral-B® app also provides 3D graphics and the AI Brushing technology recognizes all areas within the mouth, guiding users toward 100% brushing area completion.
