Next-Generation Sonicare Technology
As part of its new Sonicare lineup, Philips is introducing Next-Generation Sonicare technology across its new 5700 to 7300 Series models, marking the first major drivetrain upgrade in more than a decade. At the center is a completely re-engineered motor, built on decades of clinical insight and engineering expertise, designed to deliver consistent power from handle to brush head for a gentle, yet effective clean, even in hard-to-reach areas like molars. The new adaptive magnetic system responds in real time to how users brush, helping maintain optimal performance when users apply too much pressure or reach the back of the mouth, habits that can typically slow bristle movement and reduce effectiveness. The result is a more consistent brushing experience, delivering up to 62,000 optimal bristle movements per minute, regardless of pressure or technique.
5700 to 7300 Series - Key Shared Features Include:
- Sonic toothbrush with Next-Generation Sonicare technology & Sonicare Fluid Action for a gentle & effective clean even in hard-to-reach areas
