Bleeding gums after starting to use an electric toothbrush is common, but not always normal. The causes may lie in the wrong brush head or improper brushing technique.

Possible reasons:
– Using a brush head that’s too hard
– Applying too much pressure on the gums (some models have a pressure sensor)
– Pre-existing gingivitis or gum inflammation

What to do:

Use brush heads with soft bristles, such as Sensitive Clean

Brush at a 45° angle without applying pressure — simply hold the toothbrush near your teeth, it will do the work for you

If your model has a pressure sensor, follow the indicator for guidance

If bleeding persists for more than a week, consult a dentist
