During orthodontic treatment, oral hygiene is particularly important: In addition to the teeth, fixed braces also require particularly comprehensive and conscientious cleaning to prevent both cavities and other dental diseases from forming. At the same time, however, fixed braces make daily cleaning enormously difficult. The emmi-dent now provides a remedy: The ultrasonic toothbrush not only cleans the teeth of children and adults particularly thoroughly and effectively. Wearers of fixed braces and brackets also benefit from our innovative cleaning method with 100% ultrasound, which can effortlessly clean areas in the mouth that are otherwise difficult to reach with brackets. To clean fixed braces and brackets, we have specially developed a brush head that is tailored to the particular requirements and greatly facilitates brushing. Thanks to the special shape of the brush head, dental care with the ultrasonic toothbrush is also particularly gentle and delicate.
Cleaning braces and brackets – but how?
If the orthodontist determines that you or your child needs fixed braces, fixed retainers – the so-called brackets – are attached directly to the teeth to correct misaligned teeth and jaws. However, the corners and edges of the brackets enormously increase the possibilities for food debris to attach. If food residues are not thoroughly removed after meals, deposits can form on both teeth and braces. Caries, gingivitis, and periodontitis are potential consequences. Unlike removable braces, however, brackets cannot be removed to clean them thoroughly outside the mouth. At the same time, the attached retainers make it difficult for you or your child to reach the tooth surfaces with a toothbrush – especially children and adolescents find cleaning their teeth with braces very problematic, as it is not only more elaborate but also more time-consuming. The use of dental floss and interdental brushes is also particularly difficult for wearers of fixed braces.
Clean hard-to-reach areas in the mouth with ultrasound
Brace wearers now benefit from the sophisticated technology with which the emmi-dent ultrasonic toothbrush works. The emmi-dent is 100% based on ultrasound and enables cleaning that is as efficient as it is thorough – even with fixed braces. Even with removable braces, ultrasonic cleaners have proven to be one of the most professional methods, and now ultrasound also plays to its strengths with fixed models. The special brush head for braces allows the ultrasonic toothbrush to clean teeth and interdental spaces gently and thoroughly. In places that a manual toothbrush or conventional electric toothbrush can only reach with difficulty, the emmi-dent effortlessly unfolds its cleaning effect. Sustainable cleanliness and stable oral hygiene are guaranteed even for brace wearers. Deposits, plaque, and cavities cannot even form thanks to the ultrasonic cleaning of the braces.
The emmi-dent brush head for braces
With the brush head for brace wearers, the emmi-dent can optimally support you or your child in daily oral hygiene. The cumbersome brushing of the brackets with a conventional toothbrush is eliminated. Instead, the ultrasonic toothbrush cleans the teeth almost automatically. The force you previously had to exert to brush your teeth is taken over by the sophisticated ultrasonic technology. The targeted arrangement of the bristles on the brush head contributes to the fact that the interdental spaces also receive the care they need. Because the use of dental floss is very cumbersome for brace wearers due to the fixed brackets and requires a certain amount of skill. With the emmi-dent brush head for braces, the brush bundles on the side are raised, but a little shorter in the middle. This allows the toothbrush to adapt perfectly to fixed braces and brackets when brushing, while still optimally cleaning the interdental spaces. In addition, the almost contact-free cleaning method with ultrasound prevents too much pressure from being exerted when brushing, which can damage tooth enamel and gums. In combination with our toothpaste, which we have specially developed for use with our ultrasonic toothbrushes, you achieve an optimal result in tooth cleaning.
Clean braces and brackets with the emmi active principle
Our ultrasonic toothbrushes use a novel micro-cleaning process that generates up to 96 million oscillations per minute. The ultrasonic technology of the toothbrush forms countless microscopic bubbles that also reach areas in the mouth that are difficult for conventional toothbrushes to access. In this way, the ultrasonic toothbrush cleans and reduces bacteria even where it is particularly dangerous for wearers of fixed braces and brackets: near the brace edges and even under the clasps. Due to the wire of the brace holder, access to these interdental spaces is almost impossible, so normal toothbrushes can hardly reach these areas. However, the emmi-dent ultrasonic toothbrush also reliably removes deposits of food residues or stuck sugar particles, such as those contained in many popular drinks among young people, in these places by means of ultrasonic cleaning. The micro-bubbles generated by the emmi-dent loosen dirt particles from the interdental spaces and from the tooth surfaces. If brace wearers use our ultrasonic toothbrushes for regular oral hygiene, bacteria have no chance to settle for a long time, and teeth and braces are thoroughly cleaned.
An important contribution to dental health
The easy handling and thorough cleaning effect make the emmi-dent the ideal brush even for brace wearers. Our ultrasonic toothbrushes have also proven effective in preventing bad breath and unsightly discoloration of the teeth. Even deposits that have already formed on the tooth surfaces can be removed by the novel ultrasonic technology with which our toothbrushes work. The ultrasonic toothbrush not only benefits your daily oral hygiene, but the use of the emmi-dent also pays off for long-term dental health at any age. Because brushing with the emmi-dent does not require brushing, there is no irritation of the gums and you make a sustainable contribution to keeping gums and tooth necks healthy. Even injuries and inflammations that have already formed on the gums can heal faster. In addition, ultrasonic-based dental care leaves brace and bracket wearers with a pleasantly clean feeling – just like after a professional tooth cleaning.
