How to use interdental brushes? Wisdom Interproximal is designed to clean between the teeth, around crowns, bridgework and orthodontic appliances.

Also known as an oral irrigator or dental water jet, this device uses a powerful stream of water to flush out plaque and bacteria. These use a pulsating stream of water between 5 to 90 psi of pressure. They consist of a tank and pump, a handle with a button to release the water, and a tip to direct the flow of the tight stream.Very often, dental professionals mention interdental care along with the term of complete oral hygiene. That is because interdental spaces are very important for the health of your teeth and gums. The first changes on gums occur right in these areas. After each meal, dental plaque is constantly formed between the teeth. Unfortunately, it is impossible to completely remove it by regular interproximal brushing. And that is why gingivitis and periodontitis are mostly expressed exactly there. According to the shape of the head, we distinguish cylindrical and tapered interproximal brushes (narrowed on the top and look like Christmas tree). That is a specially designed brush which is used to remove food remains and plaque from interdental areas. It may have cylindrical or tapered shape. It’s fibers are set like spokes on a bicycle wheel – radially extending from the center where they are fixed to the wire. Working surface of the brush is in the form of Christmas tree, spiral and small in size, so it can be pushed between the teeth. Due to the ease of introducing in the gaps between teeth, it is often compared with dental floss. But in general they are not similar at all. It is only partially possible to clean spaces between teeth with the conventional brushes, as their fibers can not reach their depth. Therefore, for the cleaning of these hard to reach areas, we should use brushes that have the dimension and shape adapted to interdental spaces. When is the use of interdental brush recommended? Use regularly to help keep your teeth and gums healthy, to protect against gum disease and tooth decay and to keep your breath fresh.

Interprox ® brushes are manufactured in a fully automated manner, without any manual handling, to ensure absolute asepsis of the product. The fixed angle of this durable interdental brush design is the key to comfortable access and cleaning between teeth, even if you have limited dexterity or large hands!

Instructions: Consult with your dentist or dental hygienist to determine the size of your interproximal space and which brush you should use. The latest version of Oral-B interdental brush head has nicely soft bristles that do the excellent job in cleaning food particles, and do not harm neither tooth enamel nor gums. Also, the wire bends very easily to enter into the interdental area, so they are found to be very easy to use. The only downside is that the brushes are made in just one size – Medium. Therefore, the Oral-B Interdental Brush System is best suited for cleaning in between wide spaces between teeth, metal bridges, implants and orthodontic metal braces. Interprox ® adapts to all spaces. The design includes cylindrical and conical heads. The former are recommended for the frontal area and the latter are more suitable for cleaning spaces between molars and premolars.This interproximal device is especially handy for patients with larger spaces between teeth. These gaps make it difficult to use dental floss properly, and the brush is more effective. This brush is also good for patients with limited mobility or braces, because the tool is easier to maneuver. It can also help clean between restorations like dentures, bridges, and implants. Patients like the interdental brush because they only need the use of one hand. Some of the disadvantages are these brushes are more expensive than floss, they require wetting or lubrication before use, and the wire center can damage the gums. Also, after one use, the brush will never be completely sterile. These brushes are also more likely to cause irritation to the gums. use a brush appropriate for the size of the space between your teeth – you may need to use more than one size
