¿How to get rid of dental Biofilm?
The use of a regular tooth brush does note eliminate the dental biofilm at interproximal level because those spaces are difficult to reach. Before using any products for the interproximal spaces cleaning, we need to distinguish among open and closed interproximal spaces so that we can select which cleaning mechanism is the most appropriate in each case.

Dental floss or ribbon and interproximal spaces adapt to all kinds of spaces.
The closed interproximal spaces are those with very thin or inexistent space between teeth. In these areas, the use of dental floss helps eliminate the interdental biofilm under the gums line, thus preventing caries and periodontal disease.

The open interproximal spaces can be the result of loosing one tooth or an exaggerated separation of the teeth, among other reasons.
