Oral B Braun D12 Vitality Precision Clean Tooth Brush

The Oral-B Braun D12 Vitality Precision Clean Electric Toothbrush is a rechargeable electric toothbrush from Oral-B’s Vitality range. D12 is the handle model code, and this version comes fitted with a Precision Clean brush head, a small round head designed to cup each tooth as it oscillates and rotates. The Vitality range is Oral-B’s entry-level rechargeable line, made for people switching from a manual toothbrush.

Vitality toothbrushes typically include a two-minute timer to help you brush for the time dentists recommend, and the handle is charged on a stand-alone charger. The oscillating-rotating action means you only need to guide the brush slowly from tooth to tooth rather than scrubbing. Refer to the user manual for details on battery life, charging time and the features of your specific model.

For people in Malaysia who want to upgrade their daily brushing routine, the Vitality Precision Clean is a straightforward place to start. Replacement Precision Clean heads are widely compatible with Oral-B rechargeable handles. Check the box contents and the plug type of the charger to make sure it suits your home.

• Before first use, charge the handle fully on the charger as described in the user manual.
• Attach the brush head firmly, wet it and apply a pea-sized amount of toothpaste.
• Place the brush head against your teeth before switching on to avoid splashing.
• Guide the brush slowly from tooth to tooth, holding it on each tooth for a few seconds; there is no need to scrub or press hard.
• Brush for about two minutes, then switch off, rinse the brush head and handle, and let them air-dry.

• Keep the charger in a dry place away from water, such as a bathtub or sink, and away from children.
• Store the handle upright and let the brush head air-dry after each use.
• Keep away from direct heat and sunlight.
• Unplug the charger when not in use for a long period, as advised in the user manual.

• Electric toothbrushes are generally well tolerated when used with light pressure.
• Mild gum tenderness or slight bleeding may occur during the first days of switching from a manual toothbrush.
• Pressing too hard may irritate the gums or wear the gumline over time.
• Stop use and consult a dentist, doctor or pharmacist if gum bleeding, pain or irritation persists.

• Do not use if the handle, charger or cord is damaged; stop use and contact the manufacturer’s service centre.
• Do not place or immerse the charger in water or use it with a damaged plug.
• Children and people with reduced physical or mental capabilities should only use it under supervision, as described in the user manual.
• If you have had recent oral surgery or have any oral health concerns, consult your dentist before use.
• Do not share brush heads with other people.

• No known food interactions.
• Can be used with your usual toothpaste, floss and mouthwash.
• Use only Oral-B brush heads and accessories recommended in the user manual.

• Charge fully before first use and recharge when the battery runs low.
• Place the brush on your teeth before switching it on to avoid splatter.
• Use the timer as a guide to brush for the full two minutes.
• Do not press hard; let the brush head do the work.
• Give each family member their own brush head.

Read the user manual before use, especially the safety, charging and care sections. Keep the charger away from water and out of reach of children, and supervise children using the toothbrush.

Regular dental check-ups remain important even when using an electric toothbrush.
