☆ To people who use super floss to clean the areas around bridges☆

Food debris and plaque under pontic base may cause gingivitis.
If pontic is not cleaned thoroughly, the teeth supporting bridges may get caries and periodontal diseases.

Many patients, after taking the guidance about cleaning the areas around bridges at dental clinics, admitted that
they made mistake in choosing the right size of floss for themselves. Most of people make mistakes in choosing 『the proper thickness of filaments』.





?
●Compare filaments:
Regular type (Slim) <<< Bridge/ Implant type (Thick) < Perio Type (Super thick)

People who have never used floss before should try Regular 3in1 Type first.
●Clean the area around pontic part of bridge

1. Slide the floss threader towards lingual side into the gap next to pontic from cheek (lip) side.

2. Hold the both tips of Super Floss. Keep the filaments under pontic.

3. Move the filaments back and forth to remove plaque and food debris.


●Notice

Regularly, there should be some spaces under pontic. However, in some cases it is hard to slide the floss under pontic.

If you find it hard to slide the floss under pontic due to tight space, just stop doing so! Trying to slide the floss with force may hurt your gums.

You should try changing floss thickness in that case.

Visit your dentist or dental hygienist for more advices.
