Interdental Brushing Birmingham

Birmingham dentists recommend the following procedure:

Select a suitable sized interdental brush. Never force the brush between the teeth. Between front teeth, use a finer brush, a twisting movement eases the brush comfortably between the teeth. 

Remove the brush by gently pulling thereby removing plaque and debris.  Repeat the twisting motion to re-insert and pull out several times until you are satisfied the space is clean.  For larger spaces nearer the back of the mouth, a larger headed brush should be selected.  To be as effective as possible, shape the head into a "banana" curve.  You will then be able to easily locate and clean the space effectively.  Rinsing the brush enables you to use the brush again.
