Why do I need to clean between my teeth?
Did you know that most dental disease begins between the teeth? By flossing or using interdental brushes such as TePe Interdentals or the long handled TePe Proximal™, every day, you can help to prevent the build up of plaque and debris from between your teeth.
It is this build up, which cannot be reached by the filaments of a toothbrush that can cause gingivitis (gum disease).
Gingivitis causes gums to become red and swollen. They may bleed on brushing. Left unchecked this can become more serious (periodontitis) and eventually may lead to tooth loss.
Regular interdental cleaning will result in healthier gums.
TePe Interdental brushes can be safely used on dental appliances, crowns, bridges and implants. |
