About this deal

If your brush wire breaks or some bristles come loose while you're using it, discard it and continue with a brand new one. Used correctly, interdental brushes should clean plaque from the gumline between teeth but shouldn't cause any damage to the gums. However, it may take a few days to get the hang of it. I found these to be relatively strong, enough to be able to rinse and reuse several times. The bristles didn’t show any damage after two to three days use. Most people would agree that the Jordan brand is by far the best (sturdy yet flexible wood, more choices of size) If the bleeding continues beyond two weeks seek advice from a dental professional. Where can I buy the cheapest TePe interdental brushes?

The original interdental brushes from TePe are made of a plastic handle with a brush part made of wire and nylon bristles. A recent study has shown these to be as effective as regular interdental brushes when it comes to removing plaque and reducing bleeding. A 2022 study focussed on only patients who have more advanced gum disease (periodontitis) and found both interdental brushes and the rubber based interdental brushes to be better than toothbrushing alone or toothbrushing and flossing. That is where the ICON brushes step up — they are much stronger, last longer, and are cheaper to buy too. Sadly they aren’t easy to find outside of the UK, and also don’t have any clear environmentally friendly policies.

The straight part of the handle is smooth, whilst the tapered end is slightly rougher (which can cause mild irritation to the lips, something I have found with almost all bamboo products, and which isn’t a long term problem as it usually stops after a few days).

If you cannot fit the Piksters, ICON, or a small silicone based brush, your only other option is floss or a water flosser. These are not as effective at plaque removal so should be used as a last resort. How often should I use interdental brushes? Interdental toothbrushes come in different sizes to fit different sized gaps between teeth. Some are disposable, whereas others consist of a longer handle and replaceable brush heads. We're going to go into more detail about these different options later on so you can figure out which is the best interdental brush for your needs. Interdental brushes vs flossing Hi Olga. Thank you for this comment and for noting the possible differences in sizes between bamboo and the plastic interdental brushes. You should use interdental brushes wherever possible, instead of floss. Only use floss for the narrowest gaps where interdental brushes do not fit. Do I need to use toothpaste with interdental brushes?The basic idea with all of these is a handle and a brush part. The size refers to the cleaning end of the brush, to the diameter of the twisted wire part. Whilst prices of TePe interdental brushes remain fairly consistent, they are always subject to change. It is not possible to say where you can always get the cheapest brushes from. You might be wondering whether it's better to use interdental brushes vs floss—especially if you find traditional floss quite difficult to use. Well, the good news is that various studies have shown that using interdental brushes is an effective alternative to flossing. Interproximal brushing can even be more effective at removing plaque than regular flossing, according to this research. If there is only a small amount of bleeding, improved cleaning is the most important thing to get rid of it. Continue to brush for a few days and the bleeding should reduce. The basic design of these is identical to the original TePes. They have a short plastic handle with the brush attached. They also come with a lid.
