Cylindrical Brush for You

Still brush regularly, do you? Please meet: my name is interdental brush. I got the name for my cleaning function that is in space between teeth.

My head is formed from a brush arranged in a cylindrical or tapered shape. The length of my head is about 1,5 cm and 0,5 cm in diameter, small enough to reach your space.

Take a mirror and have a look to your dentition. Do your teeth settled tightly close each other or there is any space between them? Even a very little space (less than 1 mm) could be the debris’ favorite place to stay on, being metabolized by bacteria into plaque, then breakdown your teeth structure.

Moreover, you guys wearing ortho-bracket could rely your hygiene on me. Get me, get better protection.

Stay outside, Fellow!

I remember 2 years ago when Dad took me to a dentist. I had my wisdom teeth surged. After that, in the way home Dad said how brave I was. The big question I had was: really?

well, basically I did nothing there, ... just sit inside the dentist’s office and let him perform everything. Didn’t I feel nervous? Obviously I did! Nevertheless, what else can I do? He’s the only one could save from those disturbing pain.

I don’t think Dad will be so astonished if he were in. though, asking him to come in was not a wise command. No, it’s not only because he had a dentist-phobia or something.
persons accompanying patient are better stay outside to minimize the contamination. Deeply think, they are not in a sterile wearing and performance, are they?

Listen dear, your decay is harmful

few days ago I got a message from my close pal, Deasy, asked me to accompany her. She needs her wisdom teeth to be extracted (which the right term of her case should be “surged”)

I advised her to have a restoration for her other decayed teeth. In the beginning she spontaneously objected that the pain due to her wisdom teeth has put her in an discomfort situation for such days. Then I told her that the decayed teeth consist of bacteria harm to her healing wisdom teeth. The decay must be treated properly before we make more wound. She agreed.

can I feel like I was in a training to convince patients? :)
