TePe Special Care Compact is a toothbrush with 9,000 ultra-soft filaments. This toothbrush is recommended for brushing after oral surgery and for patients with sore or very delicate oral tissue, very sensitive root surfaces, extremely dry mouth, and after radiotherapy. Additional areas of use can occur upon recommendation from a dental professional. Consult your dental professional regarding the use of TePe Special Care. The Special Care Compact has a smaller brush head than the regular TePe Special Care. The neck can be angled in hot water for better access.
