help Philips Sonicare 5000 FAQ

What cleaning modes does the Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 5100 have?

The ProtectiveClean 5100 offers Clean, White and Gum Care modes. Gum Care adds extra time at reduced power for working along the gumline.

How does the Sonicare 5000 warn me when I brush too hard?

Its pressure sensor changes the brush's pulsing sensation when excessive force is detected. The warning is intended to help protect gums and avoid scrubbing harder than the sonic action requires.

Which replacement heads fit the Sonicare 5000?

It accepts Philips Sonicare click-on brush heads, including models such as the C2 Optimal Plaque Control and G2 Optimal Gum Care. It does not use the older screw-on E-Series heads.

Does the Sonicare 5000 include brushing timers?

Yes. Sonicare's Smartimer targets a two-minute session, while QuadPacer prompts you to move between sections of your mouth at regular intervals.
