Interdental Brushes

Most people need more than one brush size as interdental spaces normally are not the same size. You may need two or three sizes to clean all your interdental spaces properly. As Curaprox provides the only calibrating system in the market, dental professionals can easily help you finding the proper size for every space. We offer interdental brushes in various sizes and dimensions that address every need and space. If you are unsure about the proper sizes, don’t hesitate to ask the dentist of your trust which brushes are best for cleaning between teeth. If you want to give interdentals a try by yourself, opt for the CPS prime Mixed Start Set which includes all sizes.

If you use interdental brushes for the first time, it might be scary. But with the right size and the proper brushing technique, they are safe to use. And you will certainly feel the difference of a gentle and thorough clean. Curaprox interdental brushes are made with super-soft bristles and a flexible wire core that won't cause any damage to your gums. However, if you use interdental brushes that are too large or have very stiff bristles or a totally rigid core, there is a risk of damage. This means that the bristles can hurt your gums, and the wire can scratch your teeth and damage the enamel.

Yes, daily use of interdentals should be a normal part of your oral care routine. It is best to use them in the evening, before hitting bed. Thanks to a between teeth brush, you go to bed with completely clean teeth and bacteria have less chance of building up colonies overnight, secreting harmful acids, and damaging your teeth or causing gum inflammation. However, the optimal timing for interdental cleaning should be decided together with your dental professional, based on your oral condition and individual needs.

Yes, that’s possible. We developed an environmentally friendly click system. With just one twist, you can replace the worn brush head of your interdental brush. Keep the handle, it can be reused many, many times. The interdental brushes refill packages are also made from recycled material—good for your teeth and our planet.

Interdental brushes do a really good job. Why? Their flexible bristles span between your teeth like a tiny umbrella and clean every nook and cranny. With a common dental floss brush, you can never reach these crevices, as the floss stretches across them and can’t reach all bacteria and plaque. But there are a few exceptions when floss is required to use: if you have extremely narrow gaps and interdentals won’t fit in, only flossing can clean your interdental spaces. Use it to complement your thorough cleaning on those specific spots as needed.
