About this deal

Interdental toothbrushes come in different sizes to fit different sized gaps between teeth. Some are disposable, whereas others consist of a longer handle and replaceable brush heads. We're going to go into more detail about these different options later on so you can work out which is the best interdental brush for your needs. Interdental brushes vs floss The Wisdom Clean Between brushes are almost identical to the GUM Original brushes, with colour being the only difference. The quality is similar, and both can be reused. Wisdom is recommended where GUM branded products are more difficult to find and where the cost is excessive. These are silicone based interdental brushes. They are available in three different sizes: small, medium, and large. They are metal and latex free. The plastic lid can also be used as an extension to the handle thanks to the way in which the products have been designed.

The TePe angled brushes use the same sizing and bristles as their regular brushes, the only difference is the long handle and that the bristles are at an angle to the handle. There are fewer sizes offered compared to their regular range. Generally there is nothing wrong with these brushes, but in my opinion there are better options available. As a general rule, you should select the largest size that fits between the teeth without damage to the brush. There should be a small amount of resistance, but not so much that the brush bends. Sizes available

You might be wondering whether an interdental brush can replace string floss – especially if you find traditional floss quite difficult to use. Well, the good news is that various studies have shown that using interdental brushes is an effective alternative to flossing. Interproximal brushing can even be more effective at removing plaque than regular flossing, according to this research. Used correctly, interdental brushes should clean plaque from the gumline between teeth but shouldn't cause any damage to the gums. However, it may take a few days to get the hang of it. These are standard brushes, which will last up to a week if used correctly. But the smaller sizes are prone to bending with use so can often only be used a couple of times. The regular brushes come supplied with a clear cap that fits over the brush head to protect it if required. This is particularly useful when travelling. Because of this the same ISO size can feel different when made by different brands. We are currently working towards an accurate comparison table.

The basic idea with all of these is a handle and a brush part. The size refers to the cleaning end of the brush, to the diameter of the twisted wire part. Removing plaque build up is important to keep your mouth clean, and interdental cleaning removes more plaque than only using a brush.Like a toothbrush, an interdental brush will need replacing. In fact, it needs replacing more often.
