Optimise interdental cleaning with TANDEX
UncategorisedPosted by: Dental Design 21st June 2023
Daily interdental cleaning is crucial for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Using interdental brushes allows patients to remove plaque from the surfaces which regular brushing cannot reach. It is important that patients use the correct size interdental brushes, appropriate for the size of their spaces, for the most effective clean, and to avoid any damage to the gums.
TANDEX offers a wide range of oral care solutions which ensure patients are able to maintain their oral hygiene, and protect their oral health. The FLEXI range of interdental brushes from TANDEX are designed to deliver a thorough clean and, when used in conjunction with TANDEX PREVENT GEL, patients can expect lasting protection against oral diseases.
TANDEX FLEXI
Effective daily interdental cleaning is essential for maintaining oral health. By doing this, patients disrupt the harmful bacteria between the teeth, preventing it from causing damage to the teeth and gums. When it comes to selecting an interdental brush, it is important to get the size right. If the brush is too small, patients may not be able to achieve an effective clean, and if the brush is too large, the patient may risk damaging or irritating their gingival tissues.
TANDEX FLEXI interdental tools are available in 11 different sizes which are clearly identified by the ISO and PHD (passage hole diameter) numbers on the box. This makes it easy to help your patients find their perfect fit. When patients know which size brush to use in each space, they are able to achieve an excellent clean every day.
In addition to this, TANDEX offer the FLEXI EDUCATOR tool. This provides your patient with a helpful reminder about which size brush should be used in each interdental space, as well as when their next appointment will be.
Be sure to recommend the most appropriate brushes for each patient, and ensure they understand how to use them to achieve the most effective clean.
TANDEX PREVENT GEL
For patients who are particularly susceptible to oral diseases, recommend TANDEX PREVENT GEL. This oral hygiene supplement is the perfect addition to your patients’ daily cleaning routines. It can be easily applied between the interdental spaces using any TANDEX FLEXI brush, to strengthen the enamel and offer a lasting antibacterial effect. This is because PREVENT GEL is formulated with 0.12% chlorhexidine and 900 ppm fluoride. The gel is non-abrasive and has a pleasant taste of peppermint, so patients can enjoy the lasting fresh taste, as well as the benefits of high-quality ingredients.
Chlorhexidine has antiseptic properties, effective for treating patients with gingivitis and periodontitis. When used interdentally, chlorhexidine in PREVENT GEL will remain on the surface of the teeth, offering patients with prolonged protection. This will disrupt bacterial plaque for long periods of time, preventing the development of and allowing the recovery from gingivitis and periodontitis. Additionally, with the regular application of fluoride, patients can expect added protection from caries, as fluoride remineralises and strengthens the enamel.
The ultimate combination
Recommend this preventative combination to your patients, allowing them to maintain their oral health, and reduce levels of plaque in their interdental spaces. By doing this, patients will notice reduced redness and inflammation in their gums, and will lower their risk of developing caries.
Additionally, the TANDEX product portfolio features a range of oral hygiene tools, suitable for any patient. The line includes the FLEXI, WOODI, PREVENT GEL, WASH & PREVENT mouthwash, and the SOLO interspace brush. Discuss your patients’ specific needs to establish which tools would be most useful for them, selecting products which suit their dental situation.
Using a combination of high-quality products on a daily basis will allow your patients to reduce levels of plaque, particularly in their interdental spaces, and encourage a consistent routine for optimal prevention.
