Curaprox implant interdental brush refills are designed for careful cleaning around implants, attachments, bridges and dentures. Ultra-fine, soft filaments reach larger or complex spaces, while the fine plastic-coated wire helps protect sensitive implant surfaces during controlled daily cleaning.
The range includes several brush dimensions so each space can be cleaned with an appropriate fit. Every refill connects to Curaprox interdental holders through the Click System, allowing the handle to be retained and reducing unnecessary plastic waste. Insert the correctly sized brush gently without force, move it once through the space and rinse after use. A dental professional can help identify the suitable size for individual implants and restorations.
How do specialised interdentals differ from regular ones?
Regular interdentals are for cleaning «normal» interdental spaces. But when it comes to orthodontic appliances, implants, or dentures, your needs may change. Now, our special interdental brushes come into play. Brackets, bands, and wires require a different and even more accurate care than bracket-free teeth. Or you notice that, after the implant procedure, the spaces around your new tooth are larger than before and your well-known and proven interdentals won’t to the job anymore. No problem: we’ve got a proper interdental brush for every need. Our special interdental brush range of CPS ortho, CPS implant, and CPS perio come with longer, broader, or cone-shaped bristles that clean your mouth without any difficulty. Choose between different sizes in a practical colour system—easy to recognise and repurchase.
Can I damage my gums with these brushes?
No, if you use interdentals properly and in appropriate sizes, the use of specialised interdental brushes for braces, dentures, implants, or in case of enhanced interdental spaces is completely safe. There’s no risk of damaging your gums and teeth.
Which interdental brush size is right for me?
The right interdental brush glides gently between the teeth without pressure – and that’s exactly how it should feel. This helps remove plaque and bacteria thoroughly while staying gentle on your gums. If the brush is too small, it may not clean effectively enough. If it feels too tight or uncomfortable, it’s probably too large. With the right size, cleaning feels comfortable and effortless. Your dental professional will be happy to help you find the perfect CPS size for your smile.

Why do my gums bleed when using interdental brushes?
Bleeding gums are often a sign of inflammation caused by plaque between the teeth. With regular and gentle cleaning, gums and interdental spaces usually become healthier within just a few days and bleeding often decreases. If your gums remain sensitive or continue to bleed, we recommend contacting your dental professional.
Can interdental brushes clean safely around implants?
Yes. Curaprox interdental brushes clean thoroughly around implants while remaining especially gentle at the same time. The fine Curen® filaments are gentle on sensitive gums and implant surfaces.

If the tissue around a dental implant becomes inflamed, this is known as peri-implantitis. This is caused by bacterial deposits (plaque) that have settled around the implant and can migrate from there into the deep tissue. Good oral hygiene and regular professional dental cleanings can prevent peri-implantitis. You can read here how to treat it if it has already got that far and why early detection plays an important role.
