Your toothbrush only reaches part of the tooth surface. Interdental brushes and floss clean the spaces in between.
Interdental brushes and dental floss
Around a third of your tooth surfaces are between the teeth, where a toothbrush can't reach. Interdental brushes and dental floss remove food and plaque from these spaces, helping to prevent cavities, gum problems and bad breath.
Floss or interdental brush?
Interdental brushes: ideal for wider gaps, braces and bridges.
Dental floss: best for tight contacts between teeth.
ISO sizes: from extra-fine to wide.
Trio & mono packs: try sizes or stick to your favourite.
How to use an interdental brush
Choose a size that fits snugly without force.
Insert gently at the gum line.
Move back and forth a few times.
Rinse the brush and let it dry after use.
Finding your size
Many people need more than one size. A trio pack is a good way to find the right fit; your dental hygienist can also advise.
