What interdental brush size should I use?
The ideal interdental brush should fit comfortably between the gaps of your teeth. If the size is too small, the bristles won’t clean effectively. When the brush size is too big, you may end up damaging your teeth and gums.
How many times can you use the same TePe brush?
Use your interdental brushes once or twice a day to clean between your teeth, remembering to use these brushes at the same time that you usually brush your teeth. Using a brush that is the right size for your teeth, gently work the brush into the gaps between your teeth and brush it back and forth to remove plaque.

Which Tepe brush size should I use for this probe?
If the probe rubs the sides of the teeth, I would size blue or down. If the probe doesn’t even fit through the embrasure space, then you are looking at a pink or orange for that space. If the probe goes through the embrasure space and does not touch the sides of the teeth and the tissue allows, I would try a yellow TePe brush.
