Question

If I have the FlexCare model with the built-in sanitizer, do I still have to replace brush heads every three months? Doesn’t the sanitizer remove all the germs?

Answer

The UV Sanitizer does not affect the wear on brush head bristles. Our three-month recommendation cycle is aligned with the official ADA policy and we recommend this time period whether or not you are using the UV Sanitizer. Note: the UV Sanitizer helps manage germs and sanitizes the brush head, but is not a sterilizer.
