Smart Gum Care with BrushO's Pressure Sensor

1d ago

Brushing harder doesn’t mean brushing better. A smart, gentle routine—plus BrushO’s pressure sensor and app coaching—keeps gums comfortable, prevents recession, and still delivers a deep clean. If your goal is healthier gums (not just cleaner teeth), this guide is for you. 😊

🌿 Gum Care Isn’t Optional—It’s Foundational

Healthy gums anchor and nourish your teeth. Yet many people brush with too much force, causing soreness, bleeding, and long-term recession. Think of it like polishing glass with sandpaper—effective at first, damaging over time.

Common signs you’re brushing too hard:

• Tender or shrinking gumlines 😣
• “Longer” looking teeth (gum recession)
• Bristles splay or fray in < 3 months
• Tingling sensitivity to hot/cold
• Pink foam or bleeding after brushing

🔬 Why Pressure Control Matters 

The sweet spot for daily brushing force is surprisingly light—about the weight of a small orange (≈150–200 g). Above that, bristles can:

• Scuff enamel at the gumline (hello, sensitivity)
• Irritate delicate tissue → inflammation & bleeding
• Create micro-abrasions that trap bacteria

A smart pressure sensor acts like cruise control for your hand, keeping force gentle while sonic vibrations do the heavy lifting.

🤖 How BrushO’s Pressure Sensor Protects Your Gums

BrushO doesn’t just beep and hope—its protection is active and adaptive:

   1. Instant sensing 📳 — The handle detects excess force the moment it happens.

   2. Gentle alerts — A soft cue nudges you to ease up (no panic, no drama).

   3. Adaptive power ⚡ — Intensity subtly drops to a gum-safe level.

   4. App coaching 📱 — See your pressure heatmap and weekly trend; get micro-tips to fix habits for good.

Result: safe, consistent, dentist-approved pressure—every session.

🪥 Sonic + Gentle: Clean Without Scraping

With sonic technology, BrushO sweeps plaque from the gumline and between teeth using fluid dynamics (micro-bubbles + high-frequency motion). Translation: a deep clean without heavy hand pressure. Pair that with soft, rounded bristles and you’ve got a recipe for calm, happy gums. 🧼✨

🎯 Set-Up in 60 Seconds

• Pick Sensitive or Gum Care mode to start.
• In the app, enable pressure alerts and progress tracking.
• Aim the bristles at a 45° angle to the gumline; glide, don’t grind.
• Let the 2-minute timer and quadrant prompts pace you.
• End with a light sweep of the tongue for fresher breath. 😮‍💨
