If there is no shaft and the head attaches magnetically, no — that is an Oral-B iO handle and it takes only iO heads. If your head is flat and oval rather than round, no.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size:20px;margin:22px 0 6px;\"\u003eAre these genuine Oral-B heads?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eNo, and we would rather say so plainly. These are third-party replacement heads made to fit the round snap-on fitting Oral-B uses across most of its rechargeable range. They are not manufactured by, sold by, affiliated with or endorsed by Oral-B.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size:20px;margin:22px 0 6px;\"\u003eWhich Oral-B handles use that fitting?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eThe round snap-on shaft is the fitting on the Vitality, Pro, Smart and Genius handles, among others. The two exceptions in the range are iO, which is magnetic, and the flat-headed Pulsonic sonic handles. If you are unsure, go by the shaft rather than the model name — the shaft never lies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size:20px;margin:22px 0 6px;\"\u003eHow often should I change them?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eGeneral dental guidance is about every three months, or sooner if the bristles splay outward. Splayed bristles are also a signal that you are pressing too hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size:20px;margin:22px 0 6px;\"\u003eDo the coloured rings come already fitted?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eYes. The rings are on the heads when they arrive, so you can tell them apart straight out of the pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size:20px;margin:22px 0 6px;\"\u003eWhich pack size should I choose?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eWork in person-years. One person swapping every three months uses four heads a year. So 8 is two years for one person or a year for a couple; 20 is five person-years. Buy for how many people share the handle, not for how long you think you will keep the brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n    \u003ch3 style=\"font-size:20px;margin:22px 0 6px;\"\u003eDo I get a handle with these?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:17px;margin:0;\"\u003eNo. This is replacement heads only. You keep the handle and charger you already own — that is the entire point of it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003cdiv style=\"margin:0 0 20px;padding:18px;border:1px solid #cdd6e2;background:#f8fafc;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\n    \u003cp style=\"font-size:15px;color:#5c6577;margin:0;\"\u003eOral-B is a registered trademark of its owner.
