Oral-B iO compatible brush heads

In short: The Oral-B iO 2 to iO 10 only take iO heads. At ÉclatDent, one head lists it on its product page: soft iO heads. Classic round Oral-B heads (Vitality, Pro, Smart, Genius) do not fit. Plan on one head every 3 to 4 months, as the American Dental Association (ADA) recommends.

To go with it

Which heads fit the Oral-B iO?

The Oral-B iO 2 to iO 10 only take iO heads. At ÉclatDent, one head lists it on its product page: soft iO heads. Classic round Oral-B heads (Vitality, Pro, Smart, Genius) do not fit.

How to find your toothbrush’s reference

The “iO” name and its number (iO 2 to iO 10) are on the handle and on the box. The iO fitting is specific to this range: a classic round head does not click onto an iO handle, and an iO head does not fit a classic handle.

The lit-up markers show where to look on your model. Write down what you read before ordering, and send it to us if in doubt.

  1. On the front of the handle: “iO” and its number, from iO 2 to iO 10.
  2. On the box and in the manual: the same name on the box.

When to replace the head

The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends replacing your toothbrush, or its head, approximately every three to four months, or sooner if the bristles become matted or frayed. At that pace, a pack of 4 heads lasts about a year for one person. If several people share one handle, each keeps their own head: one colour per person avoids mix-ups.

Frequently asked questions

Oral-B iO: which heads should I choose?

At ÉclatDent, one head lists it on its product page: soft iO heads. Classic round Oral-B heads (Vitality, Pro, Smart, Genius) do not fit.

Does a classic round Oral-B head fit an iO?

No. The iO fitting is different: only iO heads fit the iO 2 to iO 10. Our iO caps protect iO heads when travelling.

Are these heads made by Oral-B?

No. They are generic compatible heads: another manufacturer makes them to fit these handles. They are neither made nor endorsed by Oral-B, whose name is only mentioned to show compatibility.

How often should I change the head?

Approximately every three to four months, or sooner if the bristles become matted or frayed: this is the American Dental Association (ADA) recommendation. A pack of 4 heads therefore lasts about a year for one person.

A new head is a good moment to start a new tube too.
