How to use the device correctly?

If you have already received the necessary recommendations of your dentist for the correct selection of the device and even managed to purchase it, it's time to learn how to use it correctly. Before you start cleaning the interdental spaces, carefully read the instructions for using this device.

Only then we turn to practice:

1. Bring the nozzle to the selected place for cleaning and insert it between the teeth until it appears on the reverse side. Attention! Dentists recommend to inject it at a right angle to the tooth surface. The cleaning nozzle must enter the gap easily and effortlessly. If you can not do this, then you'll have to take a nozzle with a smaller diameter.
2. Now it is necessary to perform several movements back and forth, and then gently rotate it around its own axis.
3. We remove the nozzle and thoroughly wash it under the stream of water.
4. Let's move on to the next interval and repeat all the steps. So we continue to brush our teeth completely.
5. The procedure time must be at least two minutes.
6. The period of use of the brush is from one to three weeks. It is necessary to focus on the weakening of the rigidity of the bristles, which indicates the need to replace hygiene products.

How do I clean my braces?

Any of the orthodontic systems needs special cleaning with a brush. This is especially true for brackets consisting of a large number of small parts. Non-systematic cleansing of braces from plaque and stuck food will very quickly lead to the development of caries and the appearance of tartar.

Braces themselves can also change color, and sapphires can lose their luster, which does not contribute to their aesthetic appearance.

The best nozzle shape in this case is a cone. The narrow upper part is able to clean all parts of the system, and a wide base easily removes food residues in the interdental spaces.

The sequence of cleaning braces is not difficult.

1. With a toothbrush we perform the usual tooth cleaning.
2. We proceed to the local cleaning with a brush, which should easily pass through all the gaps. At the same time, keep it perpendicular to the tooth surface.
3. To clean the arc, insert the nozzle in the gap between it and the teeth. Cleaning is carried out in circular motions.

Do not refuse the use of brushes and after removing the braces. They prevent the accumulation of plaque, ensuring the health and beauty of your teeth.
