FAQs
How often should I use these interdental brushes?
It is recommended to use Interprox Plus interdental brushes at least once a day, ideally after brushing your teeth, to effectively remove plaque and food debris from between teeth.
What does the 'bi-colour' feature signify?
The bi-colour bristles are designed to help you identify areas where plaque might be present (indicated by one colour) and areas where you may be experiencing gum bleeding (indicated by the other colour), allowing for more targeted cleaning and assessment of gum health.
Can I use these brushes if I have sensitive gums?
While designed for effective cleaning, if you have very sensitive gums, start by using gentle pressure and rinse thoroughly. The bi-colour bristles can help you monitor for bleeding and adjust your technique accordingly. Consult your dentist if you experience persistent discomfort or bleeding.
How do I know which size Interprox Plus brush to use?
The conical shape is designed to adapt to various interdental spaces. Gently insert the brush into the space. If it slides in easily without excessive force, it's likely a good fit. If it's too tight or bends easily, try a smaller size. The packaging may offer guidance on recommended sizes for different gap types.
How long does one Interprox Plus brush typically last?
The lifespan of a brush depends on usage frequency and care. Generally, it's recommended to replace the brush when the bristles start to show signs of wear, typically every 1 to 2 weeks for daily use.
Are these brushes suitable for cleaning around braces?
Yes, the design, especially the long handle and effective head, makes them suitable for cleaning interdental spaces and around orthodontic appliances like braces.
What is the item display weight?
The item display weight is 28.0 grams per unit (which typically refers to a single brush or a small pack depending on how it's sold).
Troubleshooting
Bristles bending or splaying quickly
Ensure you are using the correct brush size for your interdental spaces. Forcing a brush that is too large can damage bristles. Also, make sure to rinse and store the brush properly after each use to prolong its life.
Difficulty reaching certain areas
Utilize the long handle for better reach. Experiment with different angles and techniques to find what works best for your specific dental anatomy.
Bristles feel too stiff or too soft
Interprox Plus brushes are designed with a specific bristle firmness for effective plaque removal and gum stimulation. If you find them uncomfortable, consider trying a different size or a different model within the Interprox range that might offer varying firmness.
