TePe Interdental Brushes, Original Black - 1.5 MM

TePe Interdental Brushes Original come in 9 different color coded sizes to fit narrow as well as wide gaps. The interdental brushes are developed in collaboration with dental experts to ensure the highest quality in every detail. Daily use can remove up to 40% more plaque than toothbrushing alone. Effective plaque removal prevents gum inflammation, cavities and bad breath.

How to Use the Interdental Brush 

For best result, it is important to choose an interdental brush of the right size. Often, you need more than one brush size and your dental professional can help to select the correct brush size or sizes for you. 

1. Choose the right size
2. Insert gently between your teeth. Do not force the brush into a space; work it in gently or choose a smaller size.
3. Move the brush back and forth in each space a few times
4. Change size and curve the neck or wire when needed
5. Change the brush when the filaments become worn

Front teeth 

Back teeth 

If you use a small interdental brush (pink, orange, red or blue) you may curve the soft neck slightly. By adding pressure with your finger to make it easier to reach between the back teeth.

If you use a large interdental brush (yellow, green, purple, gray, black), access between the back teeth may be improved if you slightly curve the wire. The interdental brush will last longer if you do not straighten or bend the brush at another angle.
