This product is designed specifically for users with dental implants or a bridge, as it is strong and thick enough to remove plaque from the difficult to reach areas where it builds up on these pieces of equipment. Dental implants and bridges are a magnet for plaque, which can then cause problems in the remaining healthy gum tissue and for any natural teeth that remain. Brushing and using mouthwash will remove some of the offending plaque, but a strong dental floss that can reach underneath the equipment is also necessary to keep your mouth effectively clean.
The Curaprox Bridge and Implant Floss has strong, nylon threaders on each end, to make it easy for you to slide the floss in and out of any unusual spaces caused by your dental implants and bridges; this also makes it much easier for the user to manoeuvre the floss around their mouth so that plaque and food can be thoroughly removed.
The middle section is a thick ‘toothbrush’ filament, that mimics the behaviour of an interdental brush, squashing itself into tight gaps to clean the surfaces that normal brushing would not reach. It is thin enough to be able to get into hard to reach places and also to clean effectively below the gum line, no matter if you have dental implants or a bridge. The Curaprox Bridge and Implant Floss comes in packs of 30 disposable strands and is flavoured with mint to help keep your mouth stay fresh and clean all day.
