Which size should I use?

 

From small and medium gaps to large and extra large gaps, we have interdental brushes for every gap. But as a first time-user, it can be a bit tricky to know which size you should choose. A brush of the right size should fill the space and offer some resistance when inserted, but should never be force into the space.

How do I use TePe Interdental Brushes in a safe way?

As long as the wire doesn't touch the sides of the teeth, you can insert the whole brush. You should never force the brush into the gap.

 

Is it bad if it bleeds when I clean in-between my teeth?

If you haven’t cleaned between your teeth in a while, your gums can feel sore and bleed when you start cleaning. Don’t stop – bleeding is a sign of inflammation caused by plaque, so it’s important to keep cleaning every day.

 

Should children use interdental brushes?

It’s generally best to wait until all the permanent teeth have fully emerged before starting to clean between them. However, if your dentist or dental hygienist recommends beginning earlier, it’s important to follow their guidance since they know what’s best for your child’s individual needs.
