• Many different designs have been manufactured• Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of
cost, availability, advertising claims, family tradition, or habit
• Because of the variety in shapes, sizes, textures, and other characteristics
• Dental professionals must become familiar with the many available products to advise patients appropriately

Must be able to adapt to all facial,
lingual, palatal, and occlusal
surfaces for bacterial plaque
removal

III. Soft nylon brush
• More effective in cleaning the cervical area
• Less traumatic to the gingival tissue
• Can be directed into the sulcus and interproximal areas
• Applicable around fixed orthodontic appliances
![Page 9: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

recession
• More effective use for sensitive gingiva in
severe gingivitis, ANUG, or during healing
stages

• Complete tooth brushing instruction for patients involves teaching;
• What, when, where and how
• The grasp of the brush
• The sequence and amount of brushing
• Supplementary brushing for occlusal surfaces and the tongue
• Effect from improper brushing
• Care of the tooth brushings
![Page 12: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

• The emphasis in patient education should be placed on complete plaque control rather than on number of brushing
• At least two brushing with interdental cleaning is recommended for control of bacterial plaque and halitosis prevention
• A night brushing before bed time should be encouraged

![Page 18: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Problems
• Change the very short strokes into
vigorous scrub that causes injury to
the gingival margin
• Dexterity requirement may be too
high for certain patients
![Page 19: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Two brushes for home use and a third in a portable container for use at work
• Frequent replacement recommended
• Brushes should be replaced before filaments become splayed, frayed or lose resiliency
• Clean thoroughly after each use
• Brushes should be kept in open air with head in an upright position, apart from contact with other brushes.

![Page 21: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Purpose and indications
• Cleaning gingiva and bacterial plaque without emphasis on gingival sulcus
• Meant for children
• Useful in preparatory instruction for Modified Stillman method
![Page 22: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Problems
• Brushing too high during initial placement
can lacerate the alveolar mucosa
• Use too quickly results in no brushing for the
cervical third of the tooth
• Brush with filaments tip directed into gingiva
causes gingival laceration
![Page 23: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
![Page 24: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Purpose and indications
• Bacterial plaque removal from cervical
areas and exposed proximal surfaces
• General application for cleaning tooth
surfaces and massage of the gingiva
![Page 25: Many different designs have been manufactured Patients usually uses brushes selected on the basis of cost, availability, advertising claims, family](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070410/56649ebc5503460f94bc5cbc/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Problems
• Without careful placement and using a brush with
end-rounded filaments, tissue laceration can result.
• Light pressure is needed
• Patient may try to move the brush too quickly and
the vibratory effect may be ineffective at the
gingival margin
