Metallic Sensitive Set · Ultrasonic Toothbrush

The specific way an ultrasonic toothbrush functions influences how it is used. Conventional toothbrushes are moved across the rows of teeth, and the biofilm is scrubbed away through mechanical movement. Our sophisticated ultrasonic technology works almost contact-free and, most importantly, without any mechanical movement. Brushing without scrubbing is the motto here. Simply hold the brush head lightly against your teeth. In addition to the ultrasonic toothbrush, use a special ultrasonic toothpaste. 75 milliliters is enough for about four to six weeks of use.

The bristles of the emmi-dent generally cover two to three teeth. After a short pause – six seconds is usually sufficient – move the ultrasonic toothbrush to the next teeth. With all emmi-dent models (except for the emmi-dent Platinum Care, which works completely silently and without vibration), you will receive a haptic (the vibration stops briefly after approx. 6 seconds) and an acoustic (a quiet beep) signal to move to the next tooth or teeth. Repeat this process until all teeth have been cleaned. For heavy soiling or staining, a longer cleaning time is recommended. As with all other toothbrushes, brushing should last at least three minutes. After the cleaning process, it is recommended to wipe the loosened debris away from the gums and off the teeth, then rinse with water.

The first application in 6 steps:

1: Charge the device for 24 hours.
2: Attach the brush head to your emmi-dent.
3: Hold the bristles under running water.
4: Apply the emmi-dent toothpaste to the bristles.
5: Switch the device on: the LED light will now glow green.
6: You're ready to go – hold it against each tooth or several teeth for 6 seconds, and enjoy brushing without scrubbing!

Difference from conventional toothbrushes:
Electric toothbrushes include rotating toothbrushes as well as sonic and ultrasonic toothbrushes. While the former usually feature round brush heads that alternate rotating from left to right, sonic toothbrushes are equipped with elongated, vibrating heads. At 20,000 to 40,000 oscillations per minute, they achieve significantly more mechanical movement than rotating brushes. Ultrasonic toothbrushes use a completely different technology. While rotating and sonic toothbrushes remove biofilm by means of mechanical movement, the emmi-dent Metallic works with up to 96 million ultrasonic oscillations per minute and requires no mechanical movement for teeth cleaning. Motionless teeth cleaning thanks to state-of-the-art ultrasound technology or brushing teeth without scrubbing.
Thus, the decisive difference lies in the method of cleaning: just like manual toothbrushes, rotating and sonic toothbrushes clean the teeth mechanically. This so-called macro-cleaning poses a risk of injury to gums and tooth enamel if the toothbrush is used incorrectly. In addition, ultrasound is capable of minimizing inflammation. This is confirmed by our study.
Oral care with conventional toothbrushes is limited to the areas of the mouth that the rotating or sonic toothbrush reaches. In contrast to conventional electric toothbrushes, the ultrasonic toothbrush works completely without pressure by transmitting vibrations. In this way, the entire oral cavity is cleaned comprehensively.

Difference from other ultrasonic toothbrushes:
The emmi-dent Metallic toothbrush differs from other ultrasonic toothbrush models due to several important features and improvements. Here are the notable differences:

Improved ultrasonic efficiency:
The Metallic models use optimized timing through the integration of a 2-pin system. The timing enables a more efficient and powerful cleaning effect, which ensures thorough plaque reduction and oral hygiene.

Optimal battery life:
The emmi-dent Metallic has an optimal battery life. With regular use 2–3 times a day, the Metallic can last up to 12 days before it needs to be recharged. This extended battery life (lithium-ion) offers convenience and uninterrupted use, making frequent recharging unnecessary.


Vibration on/off option:
A special feature of the emmi-dent Metallic is the ability to switch the vibration off as desired. To do this, simply hold down the power button for approx. 10 seconds while switching it on until the LED flashes 3 times. Now take your finger off the switch and switch it on as normal. Do you want to reverse it? Simply repeat the same process. Through the option of switching off the vibration, even people who prefer a vibration-free cleaning can benefit from ultrasonic technology.

The emmi-dent Metallic is an innovative ultrasonic toothbrush that utilizes patented ultrasound technology for effective and gentle oral hygiene. While the emmi-dent Metallic itself is a complete system, it offers a range of attachments that expand its functionality and address specific dental needs. The ultrasound attachment is a key component of the emmi-dent Metallic system. It emits ultrasound waves that create microbubbles in the toothpaste, thereby enabling a deep and gentle cleaning process. This attachment is essential for utilizing the toothbrush's ultrasound technology.

Below you will find the five different attachments available for the emmi-dent Metallic:

Standard Brush Heads (E2 (2 pack) and E4 (4 pack)):

The ultrasound attachment is a key component of the emmi-dent Metallic system. It emits ultrasound waves that create microbubbles in the toothpaste, thereby enabling a deep and gentle cleaning process. This attachment is essential for utilizing the toothbrush's ultrasound technology. The bristles on these models are straight and therefore perfectly suited for people who have straight or slightly crooked teeth.

Wave Brush Heads (E2 Wave):

The emmi-dent Wave brush heads are for individuals who need better access for cleaning between teeth. These brush heads feature alternating short and long bristles, which are ideal for reaching between teeth and along the gum line in cases of crooked teeth.

Good oral hygiene is important for healthy teeth and gums. It is important to clarify that in Germany, the removal of tartar is reserved for dentists. While the emmi-dent Metallic toothbrush is not intended for the removal of existing tartar, it plays an important role in preventing tartar formation when used regularly and correctly. Below, you will learn how the emmi-dent Metallic toothbrush helps prevent tartar.

The role of the emmi-dent Metallic:

Tartar prevention is achieved through the ability of the emmi-dent Metallic to disrupt the formation of plaque, the precursor to tartar. Plaque is a sticky film of bacteria and food particles that adheres to the teeth. If not removed, plaque can harden into tartar. The ultrasound technology of the emmi-dent Metallic destroys and eliminates plaque bacteria, thereby reducing plaque accumulation and minimizing the likelihood of tartar formation.

Regular and correct use:

To maximize the benefits of the emmi-dent Metallic toothbrush in preventing tartar, it is important to use it regularly and correctly. This includes brushing at least once (ideally twice) a day for the recommended duration and ensuring that all tooth surfaces, including hard-to-reach areas, are thoroughly cleaned. Maintaining proper oral hygiene practices, such as using dental floss or an oral irrigator and regular dental check-ups, complements the effectiveness of the emmi-dent Metallic in preventing tartar.

When it comes to children's oral hygiene, choosing the right toothbrush is of crucial importance. The emmi-dent Metallic, with its child-friendly features and special accessories, is a very suitable choice for children.

Child-friendly functionality:

The emmi-dent Metallic is designed to be user-friendly and safe for children. The gentle ultrasound technology ensures an effective and non-invasive cleaning experience. The toothbrush was developed with the comfort and sensitivity of delicate mouths in mind, making it suitable for individuals of various ages.

Special children's toothpaste:

To complement the emmi-dent Metallic for children, there is a special children's toothpaste. This toothpaste has been developed specifically for the needs of children's dental health. It offers a gentle yet effective cleaning experience that ensures the removal of plaque and the prevention of cavities. The children's toothpaste is also designed to have a pleasant taste, which encourages children to enjoy their dental care routine.

Special brush heads:

In addition to the child-friendly toothpaste, emmi-dent offers special brush heads that are tailored to the dental needs of children. These attachments are designed to improve the cleaning process and effectively reach all areas of a child's mouth, including hard-to-reach places.

Alternative option: emmi-dent GO

If a child does not get along with the design of the emmi-dent Metallic, the emmi-dent GO is a suitable alternative. This model offers the same advantages of ultrasound cleaning in a compact and portable design. The emmi-dent GO can be an excellent choice for children who prefer a smaller toothbrush that is easy to handle.

When it comes to ultrasonic toothbrushes, misunderstandings and myths often lead to concerns regarding their safety. However, it is important to clarify that ultrasonic toothbrushes are not dangerous. Rather, they offer numerous benefits without any health risks or side effects. Let us clear up the misunderstandings and highlight the advantages of ultrasonic toothbrushes for dental care.

No health risks or drawbacks:

Contrary to popular belief, ultrasonic toothbrushes are harmless to human health. Extensive research and studies have shown that the use of ultrasonic toothbrushes entails no harmful effects or health drawbacks. Original ultrasonic toothbrushes, such as our emmi-dent models, are specifically designed for thorough, gentle, and sustainable tooth cleaning without compromising oral health.

Effective in combating dental diseases:

One of the most important benefits of ultrasonic toothbrushes is their ability to effectively prevent common dental diseases and gum problems such as gingivitis and periodontitis. The ultrasonic technology used by these toothbrushes helps to curb and even stop the progression of these oral health issues. The ultrasonic waves penetrate deep into the gums and hard-to-reach areas, ensuring comprehensive cleaning that contributes to optimal dental hygiene.

Effectiveness in hard-to-reach areas:

The advanced technology of ultrasonic toothbrushes makes them particularly effective at cleaning hard-to-reach areas in the mouth. This includes areas around orthodontic appliances, dental bridges, and implants. The ultrasonic waves penetrate these areas and ensure that all surfaces are cleaned thoroughly, which promotes overall oral health and hygiene.

Ultrasound technology has proven its worth in professional dental cleaning at the dentist's office. This involves the use of "hard" ultrasound, which features a low frequency at high power. Dentists have been using this method successfully for many years to remove tartar and other impurities. The ultrasonic toothbrush also allows for the daily use of ultrasound technology at home. The innovative emmi-dent uses "soft" ultrasound with high frequency and low power.
Professional daily dental care for everyone, everywhere – this is welcomed by dental professionals such as Dr. Dr. Roland Streckbein, head of the Institute for Dental Implantology (IZI) in Limburg an der Lahn, who describes ultrasound as the "non-plus-ultra of efficient and modern dental cleaning."
Dr. Annick Urfels - Pediatric Dentist/University of Liège: "It is therefore an advantage that the emmi-dent removes biofilm and plaque from our teeth without 'scrubbing,' because its simple application shows that teeth feel smoother, and indeed, after about 2 weeks, there is no more gum bleeding."
Dr. Alexander May - Dentist: "The emmi-dent leads to a significant reduction in gum inflammation and completely prevents abrasive brushing movements. This eliminates the risk of abrasion damage to teeth and gums."
