The usual brush does not have equal access to all surfaces between teeth. That's why many routines require an interdental complement. To choose them depends on spaces, the presence of apparatus or prostheses and the skills of each person.
One space isn't equal to another.
A suitable thread system may be useful with close contacts. When bigger spaces exist, an interdental brush with a proper size can facilitate cleanliness. There's no single measure valid for the whole mouth.
The instrument should allow cleanup without forcing you to force it. If it costs to get in or cause an injury, ask them to check their size and technique. The demonstration in consultation is especially useful at first.
Learning how to move
The thread isn't simply used as a stick to remove food. The technique aims to clear contact surfaces in a controlled manner. Avoid hitting the gum by inserting and ask for help if you don't know how to adapt it to your tooth.
The interdental brushes also care about direction and access. Do not double an orthodontics and push against an endurance you do not understand. Anatomy and apparatus may require adaptation.
Supplements and limits
A irrigation can help with some contexts but does not automatically replace all mechanical utensils. Ask what role your case plays so as to avoid adding steps that are later difficult to maintain.
The same goes for colludators. The fact that an intense feeling of freshness does not prove that deposits have been removed between teeth.
Maintain a possible habit
It's better to learn a concrete routine and revise them rather than accumulate products. Take your tools to the office if you doubt their use. At Ortoperia, Murcia, the team can guide you depending on the periodontal status and the treatments you have.
If the bleeding recurs, do not always assign it to the thread. It may be necessary to check the gum and differentiate inflammation from a traumatic technique.
