Interproximal Brushing
Standard toothbrushing only cleans about 60% of your tooth surfaces. Interproximal brushing reaches the hidden 40% — the spaces between your teeth where plaque and bacteria thrive. By using specially designed interdental brushes, you can effectively clear the "danger zones" that traditional brushes miss, preventing gum disease and cavities before they start.
Cleaning Between the Teeth
Plaque accumulation between the teeth is the leading cause of gingivitis and proximal cavities. Unlike floss, which can be difficult to maneuver, interproximal brushes are designed to fill the natural gaps between your teeth, physically scrubbing the side surfaces and the gum line to disrupt biofilm effectively.
- Reaches areas where 95% of dental diseases begin.
- More effective than flossing for larger gaps and gum health.
- Specially sized brushes to fit your unique dental anatomy.
- Crucial for maintaining implants, bridges, and braces.
Who Should Use Interproximal Brushes?
Almost every adult can benefit from interdental cleaning. It is a vital part of the daily routine for anyone looking to stop bleeding gums or prevent tooth loss. It is particularly essential for those with specific dental needs.
- Patients with history of gum disease or recession.
- Individuals with fixed orthodontic braces.
- Those with dental implants, bridges, or crowns.
- Anyone with slightly larger gaps between teeth.
