Product Summary
With a manual toothbrush, consider the shape and firmness of the bristles. The Colgate Orthodontic brush head has been specifically designed with braces and brackets in mind.
The outer layer of bristles are soft and V-shaped for gentle cleaning of the gum margin and the surface of your teeth. The inner bristles are shorter and firmer, and this is designed to cleaning the brackets and around the thin wires of your brace. Thorough cleaning of the brackets is very important, to reduce the chances of enamel demineralisation.
A good technique is needed with a manual toothbrush, as it’s less forgiving than an electric toothbrush.
