Oral-B Cross Action Replacement Toothbrush Heads - 2 Pack

For optimal cleaning performance and hygiene, Oral-B recommends replacing your brush head every three months, or sooner if the bristles become visibly splayed or frayed. The usage indicator bristles fading from green to yellow also signal it's time for a replacement.

No, these Cross Action heads are compatible with most Oral-B electric rechargeable toothbrushes, but they are *not* compatible with Oral-B Pulsonic and Oral-B iO series toothbrushes. Please check your specific toothbrush model.

The 16-degree angled bristles are specifically designed to reach deep between teeth and along the gumline, effectively targeting and removing plaque that often accumulates in these critical areas, inspired by professional dental tools.

The unique X-shape bristles are an advanced feature designed to clean in areas that traditional round bristles might not effectively reach, further enhancing plaque removal and overall clean.

The brush head features usage indicator bristles that change from green to yellow. When these bristles are mostly yellow, it indicates that the cleaning efficacy may be reduced, and it's time to replace the head.

No, it is not recommended to clean your Oral-B brush heads in a dishwasher or sterilizer. Simply rinse the brush head thoroughly under running water after each use and allow it to air dry.

Yes, applying excessive pressure during brushing can cause the bristles to splay or fray prematurely, reducing cleaning effectiveness and potentially shortening the lifespan of the brush head. Many Oral-B toothbrushes have a pressure sensor to help prevent this.

Verify your toothbrush model. These heads are compatible with most Oral-B rechargeable electric toothbrushes but *not* with Pulsonic or iO series models. If you have one of these models, you will need a different brush head type.

The indicator bristles change from green to yellow over approximately three months of typical use (twice a day for two minutes). If they aren't changing, ensure you are brushing with appropriate pressure and frequency. If they change too quickly, it might indicate excessive pressure during brushing, which can also fray bristles prematurely. Replace the head every three months regardless of indicator color for optimal hygiene.

Ensure you are using proper brushing technique: guiding the brush head slowly across each tooth surface without scrubbing, and allowing the oscillating-rotating motion to clean. Make sure the bristles are not overly splayed or worn; if they are, it's time to replace the head even if the indicator hasn't fully faded.
