FAQs
How often should I replace the brush head?
For optimal cleaning performance and hygiene, Oral-B recommends replacing your brush head every three months, or sooner if the bristles become visibly frayed.
What is the battery life of the Oral-B iO 9?
A full charge typically provides up to two weeks of use with regular brushing (twice a day for two minutes).
Can I use the Oral-B app without enabling location services?
While the app may prompt for location services for certain features like usage statistics, the core brushing tracking and guidance functions can work without it. However, syncing with Apple Health might require specific permissions.
Is the toothbrush waterproof?
The toothbrush handle is water-resistant and can be safely rinsed under running water. However, the charging base and travel case are not waterproof and should be kept dry.
What is the difference between the iO 9 and other iO models?
The iO 9 model typically includes advanced features like the Smart Adapt Mode, a more interactive display, and a charging travel case, differentiating it from lower-numbered iO series models.
How does the Smart Adapt Mode work?
Smart Adapt Mode uses sensors within the toothbrush to detect how you are brushing and automatically adjusts the motor's rotation and intensity in real-time to optimize your cleaning technique.
Can I use the charging travel case to charge my phone?
No, the charging travel case is designed specifically to charge the Oral-B iO toothbrush and does not have the capability to charge other devices like smartphones.
Troubleshooting
Toothbrush not turning on
Ensure the toothbrush is charged. Place it on the magnetic charger and check if the display lights up. If not, try a different power outlet or ensure the charger is properly connected.
Bluetooth pairing failure
Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone. Restart both your smartphone and the toothbrush. Ensure the toothbrush is not connected to another device. Try unpairing and re-pairing within the app settings.
App not tracking brushing properly
Verify that the toothbrush is connected to the app. Ensure you have given the app the necessary permissions. Check for app updates and ensure your phone's operating system is up to date.
Pressure sensor not working
Ensure the pressure sensor is not obstructed. Clean the sensor area. Check in the app settings if the pressure sensor feature is enabled.
