Q: QuestionDoes the sonicare 4100 toothbrush STOP working if it decides that it needs a brush head replacement? I read that somewhere, but I can't find any real indication if that is true.

Asked 2 years ago by twothy.

• A:Answer All Sonicare toothbrushes will continue to work with a head that is in need of replacement. The brushes all have a "fade to white" indicator on blue tinted bristles, to remind you, even if your handle does not have the indicator light for head change
