We all know that dentistry has come a long way, and the techniques of treatment and prosthetics existing within its borders are constantly being modernized and expanded. But, you see, it is much more useful and cheaper to prevent than to treat. Prevention will save both your teeth and your nerves. Its basis is oral and dental hygiene, as well as periodic visits to the dentist. There are a wide variety of products and tools available for cleaning teeth. We propose to focus your attention on one of them. Monobundle toothbrush - how does it stand out from all this variety?
How the single-bundle brush came about
It all started 300 years ago, in Africa. Local tribes took sticks (called sotiu or miswak), cut them into small pieces, on the one hand, roughly speaking, soaked the object and cleaned each tooth separately with it. It is from this simple device that the monobundle toothbrush originates, which means that it is based on one bundle of villi. Moreover, she is not at allhas contraindications. For dental hygiene with its help, there is no need for toothpaste, which is a big plus of such a brush.
This type differs from the usual ones in that monobeam brushes easily clean hard-to-reach areas, the lateral parts of the tooth, which in itself is an excellent prevention of such an unpleasant interdental caries. They also need nothing to reach the neck of the tooth and thoroughly clean this area, which removes plaque, and with it the possibility of tartar.
A single-beam toothbrush is made in exactly the same way and in the same place as a regular one. It is distinguished by a unique small rounded head with a single tuft of bristles. The latter can be straight or pointed. Sometimes the brush can be supplied with a curved handle to clean your teeth in the most difficult places.
Who needs a mono-bundle toothbrush?
Who do dentists recommend using these brushes for brushing their teeth? Firstly, to patients who are prescribed an orthodontic toothbrush (mainly those who wear constructions on their teeth, in particular, braces). If this mechanism is fixed to the teeth, then areas are formed that simply cannot be processed with a conventional toothbrush. Such designs, by the way, make the gums and enamel sensitive and vulnerable. Mono-beam brushes are much more gentle than conventional brushes, they clean the tooth surface without disturbing the gums, remove food particles from under the braces without damaging their mechanism. You should act with careful "sweeping" movements. In this case, it is better to stop the choice on an instrument with a long and softbristles.
People wearing implants and dentures can be advised "Curaprox" - toothbrushes designed specifically for cleaning them. It will be useful to adapt both with crowded location of the teeth, and with wide interdental spaces - “holes”. Such a brush can be used in hard-to-reach places in the oral cavity.
It will be useful for everyone as an additional effective means of dental hygiene in "difficult" places, whether it be molars, wisdom teeth or interdental spaces.
Please note when buying
- Fixture head. Round shape and small size required.
- Rigidity. It is divided into three categories: soft, medium, hard. As already mentioned, if you are buying a dentifrice and braces, your choice should be on bristles with soft bristles; if you are purchasing a brush as an effective supplementary oral hygiene, then you should choose a hard or medium bristle.
- Material. Brushes are produced with both artificial and natural bristles. Naturally, the last road. In addition, it is characterized by such an unpleasant moment that is not obvious to the inexperienced eye: the natural hair inside is empty, hollow, and, therefore, during use, food debris and plaque can periodically get into this gap. And this is an excellent environment for the appearance and subsequent reproduction of pathogenic bacteria on the bristles. It is preferable to purchase "Curaprox". This toothbrushmanufacturer have artificial pile.
