Curaprox perio interdental brush refills are developed for larger spaces between teeth, including spaces that may remain after periodontal treatment. Their long, fine filaments expand within the gap to clean plaque from surfaces a conventional toothbrush cannot reach, while remaining gentle during controlled use.
Several dimensions are available to provide an effective fit for different interdental spaces. Every refill connects to Curaprox interdental holders through the Click System, allowing the handle to be reused and reducing plastic waste. Insert the correctly sized brush gently without pressure and use one in-and-out movement once daily. Because fit is essential for comfortable, effective cleaning, customers should ask a dental professional to identify the appropriate size.
Which is better: Interdental brushes or floss?
You may wonder if floss or interdental brushes manage to clean your interdental spaces better. To effectively clean the spaces between your teeth, use interdental brushes as they have a major advantage over dental floss. Their flexible bristles span between teeth like an umbrella, fill the interdental space completely, and clean every nook and cranny. There is a size for every gap, even the narrowest. With a dental floss brush, on the other hand, you stretch the floss across these crevices, which means that it can therefore never clean as thoroughly as an interdental brush. However, dental floss is the clear winner when it comes to super-narrow spaces where interdental brushes can’t reach.
Do I need to use interdental brushes every day?
Yes, daily use of interdentals should be a normal part of your oral care routine. It is best to use them in the evening, before hitting bed. Thanks to a between teeth brush, you go to bed with completely clean teeth and bacteria have less chance of building up colonies overnight, secreting harmful acids, and damaging your teeth or causing gum inflammation. However, the optimal timing for interdental cleaning should be decided together with your dental professional, based on your oral condition and individual needs.
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.

How long can I use an interdental brush?
Fresh filaments help provide a pleasant and thorough clean every day. That’s why we recommend replacing your interdental brush regularly.
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.
