Interdental Brush Angle Cleaners - Jumbo Pack (50 Brushes) (Tight) - Remove Plaque - Toothpick

I don’t know how I went my whole life, until now, without knowing about these things. The first time using one of these interdental brushes was like a revelation. I don’t think my teeth were ever truly clean until now. I would religiously floss before brushing and then again after brushing but never felt like I was getting everything. My dental hygienist knew I was trying because my gums were healthy but I was still getting tartar behind my molars. Finally the dentist gave me an interdental brush as a sample and it was immediately clear that these were the missing piece to my oral hygiene routine. I’ve tried other interdental brushes that are cheaper, and some that are more expensive. I prefer these. They are the same quality as the more expensive brushes at a much better price. And they are better than the cheap, one-time use brushes because they are angled and flexible but not too flexible. They are easy to hold, with a long handle. The metal can be a little pokey in really tight areas, but finding the right angle helps with that. The bristles are nice and soft. I typically use one of these 4-5 times before tossing it but they can last longer than that, especially since each brush comes with a cover that can be snapped on between uses to keep them clean. The cover also makes them easily portable and suitable for travel. I don’t think these should replace flossing because they can’t scrape your tooth down below the gum line the same way that floss does. But these get those wider areas between teeth much better than floss can and really make things feel squeaky clean.

Work fine, excellent value

They're angled to it's easier to get to your back teeth.

Good tooth picks

UPDATE #1 and #2 BELOW (June 6, 2021 & Jan. 3, 2022). EXCELLENT design, construction, durability, utility, price. I have used one OM for 45 days, once a day, on a mouth full of teeth (except the wise ones) *NO BRACES* and plan on disposing of it after 2 months whether it needs to be or not. After about 2 weeks of use the tapered shape became more cylindrical; after a month the bristles lost a little in diameter and uniformity (somewhat "scruffy"). I have used only one other interdental brush brand before so cannot adequately compare to others on the current market. But my other brand (Plackers blue/white, now a discontinued model) would last only about a week before breaking. The secret seems to be keeping it clean and avoiding flexing/bending/crinking the wire. The cover cap provided with each bush should help on both counts. The OM has a slightly smaller diameter wire than my Plackers model but seems to be more resistant to bending. Sizing could be problematic. It would be helpful if OM would provide samples but they do provide a lot of detailed specs online. Remember that OM descriptions (tight to wide) refers to the gaps at the gum line and not the spaces between the teeth bodies. You actually may get a longer service life than I did, since I use the brushes on an Oral-B Hummingbird vibrating flosser (also now discontinued) that I adapted to accept interdental brushes. I can't imagine that the vibrator is less rough on the brush than using it manually. Also you may even out the wear (and extend the effective life) by systematically rotating the brush a quarter-turn (90 deg.) to better balance the wear around the bristles. I will try this on my 2d OM and post an update if it does not work. My cost: $.28 @, shipping included ("free"). UPDATE #1: I got an extra two weeks use of the second brush by rotating the angle and balancing the wear more evenly; a full two months of use with less "scruffy" looks! UPDATE #2: My teeth & gaps, with some exceptions, are straight. Any angles in gap access or pathways may stress/flex the wire and reduce its useful life. Over the year I noticed that the wire developed a slight downward curve early on. At first I would straighten this curve continually. Not necessary or helpful. My current brush is entering its third month in better shape than ever and looks to last several more weeks.

These are durable and priced well over the better known brands the periodontists give out. Highly recommended from someone who uses them every day for ten years and has tried 10+ brands.

Given that there are three sizes to choose from, the big size should be a bigger diameter, and may be stiffer, brush for implants and more open dental work. It’s not as big as the replaceable brushes for the Oral-B handle. The wire will break before too long with repeated flexing, but that’s the same with replaceable brushes, and the overall price is reasonable for fairly frequent replacement.

I was flossing regularly and was still having some gum inflammation and bleeding. Apparently the dental floss doesn't reach a lot of areas between teeth. After trying this product for a few weeks, my gum health is much better. It took some practice at first to insert the little brush between all of my teeth. Using a little mirror helped me a lot with learning this new cleaning routine. What makes this inter-dental brush great is the angle of the brush and the handle - this makes it easier to reach all the spaces in my back teeth. I wish I knew about this dental tool much sooner. I tend to use a brush two times before replacing it.
