TePe Toothbrush Recommendations

TePe toothbrushes and oral appliances are one highlight of Carrie’s pH Control Products Guide but if you aren’t sure which products are right for you, these are some of her favorite products for all your oral health needs.

Standard Brushes

Your standard or daily toothbrush should cover all your oral health bases and these products from TePe are some of the top-of-the-line brushes for adults and kids.

TePe Supreme

One of our favorite standard tepe toothbrushes is the TePe Supreme, a toothbrush with bi-level bristles that are extended, feathered, and tapered. These extra soft bristles are designed to get under the gums and into the small nooks and crannies between and around the teeth. Unlike toothbrushes that do not always effectively clean the gums, TePe Supreme is a gum brush that will clean your teeth for superior teeth and gum maintenance.

TePe Supreme also comes in a compact size that is perfect for children or people of any age who need a smaller brush to get around implants, braces, appliances, and other areas that are difficult to reach in the mouth. The compact-sized bristles are similar to the size of the Burst electric toothbrush, another of our favorite products.

TePe Mini

TePe Mini comes with soft or extra soft bristles. The size of the toothbrush and soft bristles makes this the perfect choice for young children who want to brush on their own and may be inclined to chew on their brushes.

Specialty Tepe Toothbrushes

TePe offers many different types of toothbrushes and specialty products designed for different populations and different oral health needs. One unique characteristic about these specialty brushes is that they are equipped with handles that you can heat, bend into the shape you want, and then cool into place. Here are a few of Carrie’s favorite specialty brushes from TePe:

TePe Compact Tuft

TePe Compact Tuft gets into the nooks and crannies with densely packed soft bristles that flare out when pressure is applied. In other words, when it touches the tooth, the brushes flare out to get into buckle tooth grooves or the small spaces around emerging teeth. This is the perfect tool for stain removal and teeth cleaning around fixed braces and dentures.

TePe Interspace

TePe Interspace comes with 12 removable heads with varying firmness. These brushes are even firmer than the Compact Tuft brush, making them a great choice for disinfection. If you are trying to remineralize your teeth and clean around a cavity, the firm Interspace toothbrush is a great choice for those hard-to-reach areas.

TePe Universal Care

TePe Universal Care is a firm brush that works well in the lower front teeth and around braces or fixed retainers. Fixed retainers, or wire bars along the back of the teeth, make it easy for food to get stuck and harmful tooth-decaying bacteria to grow. This helpful brush will keep your oral appliance and teeth in great shape!

In Between the Teeth Cleaning

It’s sometimes difficult to clean between the teeth and knowing the right way to floss can be tricky. If you don’t floss correctly, you either won’t be giving your teeth much help or you could damage gum tissue. These TePe products are great alternatives to flossing that are easy to use for the whole family.

TePe EasyPick

TePe EasyPick is a silicone cleaning tool that comes in three sizes. Although it won’t manage biofilm, it is incredibly effective for removing stuck food between the teeth that may be damaging the health of your gums. The EasyPick is a good first step to get your gums healthy and compress the tissue since this tool is a bit smaller than interdental brushes. With inflamed and unhealthy gums, those types of brushes may feel large at first.

Interdental TePe Brushes

Interdental brushes disinfect, clean, and help to remineralize the teeth. You can put a paste or rise on your brush before using it to remineralize and strengthen your teeth from between the small crevices where tooth decay is common. Carrie recommends starting with a variety pack categorized by color. Each color is coordinated with a different-sized bristle, and you can work your way up through the sizes until you find the perfect fit for your teeth.

Bridge and Implant Floss

Bridge and Implant Floss disinfects flossing cavities or cavities that develop between the teeth. Apply a disinfectant like iodine to the spongey floss and then use the floss to deliver the cleaning product between your teeth
