Tooth brushing is the most common preventive healthcare activity, but tooth and gum disease remain high, since lay people clean at most 40% of their tooth margins at the gum line. Its removal is essential to prevent the development of diseases that its accumulation can potentially cause. A study by University College London found that advice on brushing technique and frequency given by 10 national dental associations, toothpaste and toothbrush companies, and in dental textbooks was inconsistent.

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!

Under the name Wisdom Toothbrushes, the company now manufactures 70 million toothbrushes per year in the UK.

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. To solve this problem, DENTAID is launching a new generation of Interprox ® brushes, whose main improvement is its ease and comfort of use and its ability to access all interdental spaces. The right brush should snugly enter the interdental space (with no need to force it), covering the entire space. If the motion of the toothbrush is sufficiently rapid to produce a hum in the audible frequency range (20Hz to 20,000Hz), it can be classified as a sonic toothbrush.Interprox® brushes are very useful for cleaning brackets and arches, where a regular toothbrush cannot reach and where bacterial plaque and food debris easily accumulate. It is beneficial, when using a straight bristled brush, not to scrub horizontally over the necks of teeth, not to press the brush too hard against the teeth, to choose a toothpaste that is not too abrasive, [53] and to wait at least 30 minutes after consumption of acidic food or drinks before brushing. In 1223, Japanese Zen master Dōgen Kigen recorded in his Shōbōgenzō that he saw monks in China clean their teeth with brushes made of horsetail hairs attached to an oxbone handle. Wisdom Interproximal is designed to clean between the teeth, around crowns, bridgework and orthodontic appliances.

A water pick is often a gentler option, and is twice as effective as floss at reducing gingival bleeding. However, interproximal cleaning is not always performed as it ought to be, due to the difficulty involved in using such products properly. The curved bristles follow the curvature of the teeth and safely reach in between the teeth and into the sulcular areas.

After saving a small bone from a meal, he drilled small holes into the bone and tied into the bone tufts of bristles that he had obtained from one of the guards, passed the tufts of bristle through the holes in the bone and sealed the holes with glue. For this reason, these patients are advised to keep strict measures of periodontal disease control and prevention, which include interproximal cleaning on a daily basis. They are available in different flavors such as mint or bubblegum and should be disposed of after use.
