When using interdental brushes, you may have some questions and concerns. Here we will answer some common questions so that you can use interdental brushes with confidence.
Why do my gums hurt after using interdental brushes?
Many people may experience bleeding gums when using interdental brushes for the first time, which often makes them panic and worry. In fact, there are mainly the following reasons for bleeding gums.
If you suffer from periodontal problems such as gingivitis and periodontitis, your gums will be in an inflamed state and become more fragile. When the interdental brush touches the gums, it can easily cause bleeding. Long-term food impaction will cause a large number of bacteria and irritants in the interdental spaces, which will constantly erode the gum tissue, causing the gums to become red, swollen and sensitive. Even if you use the interdental brush very gently, it may cause bleeding due to stimulation of the inflamed area. However, there is no need to worry too much. If you insist on using the interdental brush, as the oral hygiene environment improves, the inflammation of the gums will gradually decrease, and the bleeding will also decrease accordingly.
Improper use is also a common cause of gum bleeding. If you use too much force when inserting the interdental brush, or pull it back and forth when cleaning the gaps between teeth, it will directly damage the gums. The gum tissue is very delicate and cannot withstand such rough treatment. The correct way is to insert the interdental brush gently along the direction of the gap between teeth, and the movement should be as slow and gentle as possible. During the cleaning process, just make small movements back and forth, and do not use excessive force.
In addition, if the bristles of the interdental brush are too hard, it may irritate the gums and cause bleeding. The tolerance of each person's gums is different. For some people with sensitive gums, if they choose an interdental brush with too hard bristles, it is easy to cause gum damage. When choosing an interdental brush, be sure to choose the appropriate bristle hardness according to the condition of your gums. If the gums are sensitive, it is recommended to choose an interdental brush with softer bristles; if the gums are in good condition, you can choose a brush with relatively harder bristles to get a better cleaning effect.

Do interdental brushes cause gaps?
Many people worry that using interdental brushes will make the gaps between teeth bigger. In fact, this worry is unnecessary. The original intention of the interdental brush is to clean the gaps between teeth. As long as you choose the right size and use it correctly, it will not only not make the gaps between teeth bigger, but will help maintain the health of the gaps between teeth.
When the interdental brush we choose is too large, forcing it into the gap between teeth will cause excessive squeezing and expansion of the gap between teeth and gums, which may cause the gap between teeth to become larger over time. Therefore, when choosing an interdental brush, you must choose the appropriate size according to the actual size of your gap between teeth. If the gap between teeth is small, choose an interdental brush with a thin brush head; if the gap between teeth is large, choose a larger brush head. At the same time, during use, pay attention to gentle movements and do not use excessive force to avoid unnecessary damage to the gap between teeth and gums. Theinterdental brushes made by Changzhou Freshday Household Products Co.,ltd are available in different sizes, such as 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm,1.0 mm, 1.2mm and 1.5mm, so people with tight teeth or wide teeth can find the best model for them.
Proper use of interdental brushes can effectively remove food debris and dental plaque from the gaps between teeth, preventing plaque from damaging periodontal tissues. Plaque that accumulates in the gaps between teeth for a long time will produce acidic substances that corrode periodontal tissues, leading to gum atrophy and alveolar bone absorption, which are the real reasons for the widening of the gaps between teeth. By using interdental brushes to keep the gaps between teeth clean, you can prevent the occurrence of periodontal diseases, which is conducive to maintaining the normal size of the gaps between teeth.
Oral health is an important cornerstone of overall health, and interdental brushes, as a powerful assistant for oral cleaning, play an indispensable role in maintaining oral health.
