Troubleshooting

Brush does not fit between teeth

Never force the brush into a space. You may need a smaller size. Consult your dental professional to determine the correct size for your interdental spaces.

Bristles bending or deforming quickly

Ensure you are using the correct size and not forcing the brush. Replace the brush if bristles are significantly bent or worn. Rinse and dry properly after each use to prolong its life.

Difficulty reaching back teeth

Slightly curve the brush head to gain better access to posterior areas. Ensure you have a firm grip on the handle for control.

Gum irritation or bleeding

Ensure you are using the correct size brush and employing a gentle back-and-forth motion. If irritation persists, consult your dentist, as this could indicate underlying gum issues.
