Piksters Interdental Brushes Size 00 10 Pack

Product Details

This pack contains 10 individual brushes for cleaning in between your teeth.

Piksters interdental brushes are small cylindrical brushes designed to slide into and clean the spaces between the teeth. Unlike floss, they can engage and remove the plaque from within the small crevices. It is important to effectively remove this plaque and bacteria, at least once a day. The longer the bacteria remain undisturbed, the more they are likely to cause decay and gum inflammation and eventually gum disease.

Piksters can be used one-handed, the cap can be used to extend the handle which also makes them easier to manipulate than floss and they are reusable, (rinse between use) so they represent good value.

How to use

Choose a size that inserts without force. The correct size will fit easily.

Front teeth do not require the brush head to be bent. Insert the brush head in line with the plastic handle, slowly with a gentle twist or wriggling action.

Access to back teeth will generally be easier if the brush head is bent over. Use one finger to push the tip of the brush head (not the base) over to an angle of approximately 45 to 90. Pushing the tip will avoid a sharp bend where the wire meets the plastic handle, and reduce the stress concentration and likelihood of breakage in the metal.

If the wire buckles, discard the brush. Once buckled, it cannot be straightened properly.
