Interdental Brushing for Braces
An Essential Tool for Orthodontic Hygiene
An interdental brush, also known as a proxy brush, is a small, cone-shaped brush that is indispensable for anyone with braces. It's designed to clean the tricky spaces that a regular toothbrush can't reach.

How to Use an Interdental Brush with Braces
- Select the Right Size: Choose a brush size that fits easily into the spaces you need to clean.
- Clean Around Brackets: Gently insert the brush between the main archwire and the tooth. Use a soft in-and-out motion to clean the sides of the brackets and the tooth surface underneath the wire.
- Clean Between Teeth: If you have larger gaps, you can also use the interdental brush to gently clean between the teeth at the gumline.
- Rinse and Repeat: Rinse the brush after cleaning each tooth to remove plaque and debris.
