How to Use Autobrush Gel Toothpaste: Step-by-Step Guide

Autobrush's U-shaped electric toothbrush has revolutionized the way we brush, making the process faster, more efficient, and even fun. A key component of this system is the specially formulated gel toothpaste, designed to work in harmony with the brush's unique design. Unlike traditional toothpaste, Autobrush gel toothpaste has a thinner consistency that allows it to spread evenly across all teeth surfaces when the brush is inserted and activated.

If you're new to Autobrush or simply want to ensure you're getting the most out of your gel toothpaste, this guide will walk you through the correct steps, from preparation to aftercare. We'll also share tips on how to maximize the benefits of the gel and how to pair it with other Autobrush products for a complete oral care routine.

Why Gel Toothpaste is Different

Traditional toothpaste is thick and designed for manual brushing, where you move the brush back and forth. Autobrush's gel toothpaste, however, is formulated to work with the U-shaped brush's 45-degree angled bristles and sonic vibrations. Its lower viscosity ensures it can reach every nook and cranny without being pushed away by the brush's movement.

Moreover, the gel is SLS-free, which means it won't create excessive foam that could interfere with the brush's sensors or cause gagging. This makes it ideal for both adults and children, especially those who are sensitive to strong mint flavors or foaming agents.

• Thinner consistency for even distribution
• SLS-free to minimize foam and irritation
• Designed to work with sonic vibrations

Step-by-Step Guide to Using Autobrush Gel Toothpaste

Using your Autobrush gel toothpaste correctly is simple, but a few key steps ensure you get the best clean. Start by shaking the gel bottle well to ensure the formula is evenly mixed. Then, squeeze a pea-sized amount of gel onto the bristles of your U-shaped toothbrush. Unlike manual brushing, you don't need a lot – the brush's design covers all teeth at once, so a small amount is sufficient.

Next, place the brush in your mouth, bite down gently, and press the power button. The brush will automatically guide you through a 20-second cycle, during which you should gently rock your jaw side-to-side to help the bristles reach all surfaces. After the cycle ends, remove the brush and rinse your mouth and the brush thoroughly with water.

• Shake the gel bottle before each use
• Use a pea-sized amount – no need for a full strip
• Let the brush run its full cycle for best results

How Much Gel Toothpaste Should You Use?

One of the most common questions is about the right amount of gel toothpaste. Since the U-shaped brush covers all teeth simultaneously, you might think you need more, but that's not the case. A pea-sized amount is perfect for adults, while a grain-of-rice-sized amount is sufficient for children using the Autobrush Pro: Kids brush.

Using too much gel can lead to excess foam and a messy experience, and it may also cause the brush to work harder than necessary. Stick to the recommended amount, and you'll find that a single bottle of Autobrush Foam Toothpaste lasts a long time, making it a cost-effective choice.

• Adults: pea-sized amount
• Children: rice-grain-sized amount
• Avoid overloading to prevent excess foam

Tips for Maximizing the Benefits of Gel Toothpaste

To get the most out of your Autobrush gel toothpaste, consider pairing it with other Autobrush products. For example, using the Autobrush Whitening Strips after brushing with the gel can help remove surface stains and brighten your smile. The gel's gentle formula prepares your teeth for the whitening treatment, making it more effective.

Additionally, if you're traveling, the Autobrush Foam Toothpaste Sampler is a convenient way to carry your favorite gel without taking up much space. And for those who want to maintain optimal oral hygiene, incorporating Autobrush Oral Probiotics into your routine can support a healthy balance of bacteria in your mouth, complementing the cleaning power of the gel.

• Pair with whitening strips for a brighter smile
• Use the travel sampler for on-the-go freshness
• Consider oral probiotics for overall oral health

Common Mistakes to Avoid

One common mistake is not shaking the gel bottle before use. The ingredients can separate over time, and shaking ensures you get the right consistency. Another is applying the gel only to the front teeth – remember, the U-shaped brush covers all surfaces, so you don't need to apply it to individual teeth.

Also, avoid rinsing your mouth immediately after brushing with water. The gel contains fluoride (in the fluoride version) which needs time to work. Wait at least 30 minutes before eating or drinking to allow the fluoride to fully absorb. Finally, clean your brush after each use – you can use the Autobrush Brush Head Case to keep it protected and hygienic when not in use.

• Always shake the bottle first
• Don't apply gel to individual teeth
• Wait 30 minutes before eating or drinking
