Oral-B Stages Power User Manual

The Oral-B Stages Power is an electric toothbrush designed specifically for children ages 5 and above. It features a fun, character design (often featuring Disney princesses or characters from Frozen) and boasts an oscillating-rotating brush head for a more thorough clean compared to a manual toothbrush.

Features:

• Character Design: The brush comes in various designs featuring popular Disney characters, making brushing more attractive for children.
• Extra-Soft Bristles: Gentle on gums while still effectively cleaning teeth.
• Rotating Power Head: Oscillates and rotates to reach more surfaces and remove more plaque than a manual brush.
• Compatibility with Disney Magic Timer App:Connects with the app to make brushing more fun with music and timers that encourage brushing for the dentist-recommended two minutes. (Note: App may require separate download and verification).

Brushing Performance:

While the Stages Power won’t have the strongest brushing action of adult electric toothbrushes, it provides a gentle and effective clean suitable for young mouths. The rotating head ensures better reach than a manual brush, and the extra-soft bristles are comfortable on gums that are still developing. Parents will likely appreciate the ability to remove more plaque than a manual brush, promoting better oral health for their children.

Usability:

The Stages Power is lightweight and easy for children to hold. The power button is large and simple to operate, making it manageable for young hands. Some users may find the handle a bit bulky, but this shouldn’t be a major concern.

Fun Factor:

The character designs and compatibility with the Disney Magic Timer App are the true highlights of this brush. These features can turn what can be a chore for children into a more enjoyable experience. The app provides visual timers and plays music, helping kids brush for the dentist-recommended two minutes.

Things to Consider:

• Battery Operated: The Stages Power is battery-powered, so you’ll need to replace batteries periodically.
• Replacement Brush Heads: Like all electric toothbrushes, replacement brush heads are necessary to maintain cleaning efficacy.
• Not a Toy: Though it has fun features, it’s important to remind children that this is a toothbrush and not a toy. Adult supervision may be necessary for younger children.

Overall:

The Oral-B Stages Power is a solid choice for parents looking to encourage good oral hygiene habits in their children. The combination of a gentle cleaning action, fun character designs, and the Disney Magic Timer App can make brushing more enjoyable for kids. While it may not be the most feature-rich electric toothbrush on the market, it effectively cleans teeth and promotes healthy brushing habits at an affordable price point.
