Piksters Interdental Brush Medium Gaps 40 Pack Yellow Size 3

The brush in much stronger that other brands and the longer handle is useful. Very good product

They do the job required

I've started using Piksters as part of my daily oral hygiene routine at the recommendation of my dentist. They're little brushes, about 6cm long. The handle is made of plastic, and then the head has a metal shaft with bristles twisted into it, much like a miniature bottle brush. They're used to clean in between your teeth, so it's important that you get the right size for your mouth. They come in eight different sizes: 0 (Grey) being the smallest in terms of brush diameter and 7 (Black) the largest. Piksters do a similar job to dental floss or tape, but using a brush allows a greater degree of control over cleaning. I have also used them to apply small amounts of chlorhexidine gels, such as Corsodyl or Curasept, to the gums (following my dentist's instructions). I've been using Piksters for just over six months at the time of writing this review, and have recently moved to using the blue ones. I find that they do their job well. They're relatively durable for such a small item, and so you can reuse them a few times before you need a new one. My only complaint is that the metal shaft sometimes sets my teeth on edge a little, but I can see that a plastic brush couldn't be so easily positioned to reach in between molars. If you're trying Piksters for the first time, then it's probably wise just to buy a pack of 10 in case they don't suit your needs, or you need to try a different size. If, like me, you'll be using them for life, then the packs of 40 are much more cost effective! This review refers to Piksters Size 5 (Blue) 40 pack.

Good quality good value

I've been using Picksters for quite a few years now on the recommendation of my dentist. I started off using teepees, but I have found this brand to be stronger and less likely to break off between my teeth. My gum health has definitely improved as a result of using interdental brushes. When my dentist did a gum health, check prodding my gums (never particularly comfortable) there was a little bit of bleeding in some areas where they were sore, but this very rarely happens now. They are a bit fiddly but they are well worth incorporating into your dental hygiene regime. They are better than floss at removing plaque from between teeth. It is important to find the right size, too small and the interdental brushes will do a poor job of removing plaque, too big and you won't be able to get them between your teeth. With a pack of mixed sizes you will be able to find out what suits your best, and you may find that you need to use more than one size depending on the variation of gaps between your teeth. I use three different sizes, to maximise the cleaning between my teeth. In the past year I have also changed to using these twice a day and there has been a further improvement in my gum health as a result. Also I don't need to see the hygienist as plaque doesn't build up on my teeth. These do bend quite easily to get between awkward spaces especially at the back of the mouth. This size box comes with a white handle as well, which extends the length of the handle of the pickster and makes it a bit easier to use. So if you know that size suits you it's worth buying the bigger box. They last well, easily a couple of weeks for each pickster. The colour coding makes it easy to see which brush you need for each part of your mouth. If you're going away on holiday you can to pop a couple into your soap bag without taking up hardly any space. The clear plastic tube can be used to both protect the pickster extend the length of the handle. I wouldn't be without these. Given the cost of dental care, this is a very cost effective way of promoting dental health.

These are really great. Have tried others that dentists seems to sell but these are so much sturdier

good product

I was prescribed a high fluoride toothpaste by my dentist and told to use a brush to apply between gabs in my teeth and leave overnight. I tried silicone brushes and they didn’t work then I tried my usual 0.45mm brushes but they wouldn’t fit in all my gaps, it was also very fiddly and messy, I searched on Amazon for the smallest brushes I could find and the pink 00 worked brilliantly. A nice surprise was the little handle that came in the box with the brushes, and yes I did count them and I got 41 instead of 40, maybe I got the one lucky box. The only downside is that after ordering 4 boxes I then checked the following day and they’ve added 35 packs of the same brushes cheaper at 0.28p instead of 0.34p each, that works out quite a bit cheaper since I ordered 160 brushes.

Se les ve consistentes. Pero no he acertado a la hora de comprarlos, aunque por milímetros debería valerme, no me entran entre los dientes. Creo que falta información para que el cliente elija la talla que más se ajuste a sus necesidades

Prodotto consigliato dal mio dentista per una pulizia profonda

Ho usato diverse Marche di scovolini, ma questi sono i migliori. L'importante è individuare la misura giusta per i propri denti

Very good quality

Buena calidad, espero en el futuro Piksters haga de 0.2mm
