As a company, their focus is on water consumption, and this product is water neutral. 10% of their profits go directly to the charity Viva con Agua de Sankt Pauli. You will likely still need straight interdental brushes in addition to these, because it can be difficult to clean the front teeth with an angled interdental brush. In some cases, interdental brushes are available without a handle. There is less waste produced with these. However, they can be difficult to handle, depending on your manual dexterity. Examples include: We know interdental cleaning is important, but what are the pros and cons of interdental brushes specifically? Pros

ICON (Stoddard) brushes are long lasting and strong, especially in the smallest sizes. They come in a wide range of sizes, and every brush has a cover. The brushes themselves are great, and they are cheaper than TePe, but at present there are no good aspects to these brushes when it comes to the environment. The bamboo interdental brushes from Hydrophil have a short straight and slightly tapered handle. They are quite thin, which may be difficult for some people to grip, but which are easy to rotate.The straight brushes come in 9 sizes, with 6 options for extra soft bristles. The angled brushes come in 6 different sizes. This image shows the different size TePe brushes that are available I can’t say as yet I have come across a really large interdental brush that is more eco as yet. So far brands have focused on the more common smaller sizes. I am sure it is only a matter of time before we see these larger ones come in more sustainable formats too. Reply

The plastic used is bio-based plastic – a castor oil based polyethylene. This PET is easily recycled once you remove the wire and bristle part of the brush. The TePe product range We all have different sized gaps between our teeth. Even in one mouth, the size of the gap will vary depending on the teeth. Because of this the same ISO size can feel different when made by different brands. We are currently working towards an accurate comparison table. TePe makes a small holder for storage of up to four interdental brushes in your bathroom as well as a travel case capable of holding up to 6 of the original or extra soft brushes. Some interdental brushes offer sensitive versions. These are designed to be more gentle on the gums.If you cannot fit the Piksters, ICON, or a small silicone based brush, your only other option is floss or a water flosser. These are not as effective at plaque removal so should be used as a last resort. How often should I use interdental brushes? TePe is the most well known brand, but it is worth considering other brands that offer what are essentially identical products but may be cheaper.You will have noticed that cheaper alternatives have made it to our best of list.

That is where the ICON brushes step up — they are much stronger, last longer, and are cheaper to buy too. Sadly they aren’t easy to find outside of the UK, and also don’t have any clear environmentally friendly policies. The original interdental brushes from TePe are made of a plastic handle with a brush part made of wire and nylon bristles. They are the most widely known brand for interdental products, with the TePe brush being used interchangeably with interdental brush by many dental professionals.Bacteria build up on bristles between use – Whilst they can be rinsed off and reused for about a week, bacteria can build up on the bristles. As a general rule, you should select the largest size that fits between the teeth without damage to the brush. There should be a small amount of resistance, but not so much that the brush bends. Sizes available The plastic handle is made from polypropylene/PP/plastic number 5 and is recyclable with most plastic recycling schemes, once the bristle part has been removed.
