The evolution of toothbrushes has come a long way, initially made up of horse hair back in 1700. Understand that this is a part of your basic hygiene and should not be taken lightly. And who are we kidding, even regular brushes are incapable of cleaning our mouths entirely by themselves. Researchers say that almost 58% of germs remain free as a bird (literally) even after brushing twice a day. That doesn’t mean you stop brushing and become all pessimistic and gloomy. Instead, we should muster the keenness for a healthy life to get rid of the stubborn plaque in our mouths.
And in the voyage to finding ‘vanilla land,’ interdental brushes play the part of the oars. Remember that wedding you attended, when those mouth-watering delicacies turned into torment when the mutton got stuck between your teeth and planned a never-ending stay? Once, a wise man expressed his sorrow saying, “I feel like a shark after grinding down mutton and spend the rest of my afternoon tearing out the grub remnants.”
We don’t understand—or maybe this is our ignorance—that we don’t pay much heed to the food particles trapped between our teeth. Apart from the discomfort and irritation, we must know that this can also increase the risk of bacteria and plaque buildup. In India, awareness is low, and we are here to improve awareness of the importance of interdental care.
It is an oral hygiene technique and method aimed at targeting the unreachable areas between your teeth. The concept is widely accepted in other parts of the world, with the USA already practicing several interdental care methods (after all, they want to win all the races, whether in dental care or nuclear warfare). We have our version of interdental care in the form of 'antimicrobial mouthwashes' and the not-so-famous 'floss.'
