Piksters Bamboo Angled Interdental Brush Size 00 24 Pack

Biodegradable & sustainably grown bamboo with soft wire brushes

Slide bristles between the teeth

Interdental brushes, toothpicks and wooden sticks can put pressure on the tip of the small spike of gum between the teeth, (called the papilla) especially if you force it in or use a brush that is too big for the space. This can cause a slight re-shaping of the gum tip over time so that the tip of the pink gum is not as pointy, it is more rounded. The gap between the teeth becomes visible as it is more open.  This can be a good thing for some as it gives them better access into the gap to clean properly, but for others, especially in the front teeth, it can be a slight cosmetic issue, so you should be aware of it. If you are concerned, use floss, or SupaGRIPs floss-picks, or smaller brush sizes with a gentle action for cosmetic areas such as the front teeth. The least wear back of this gum spike will be by using floss - either as a floss-pick (easier to hold) or held between your fingers.
