You can clean between your teeth with an ‘interdental' brush or dental floss. Cleaning in between your teeth removes plaque and food particles lodged between your teeth and under your gumline - areas a toothbrush can't reach. When flossing or using interdental brushes, keep to a regular pattern and remember not to miss any tooth surface. It helps to look in the mirror. Don't forget the backs of your last teeth. It is also very important to clean around the edges of any crowns, bridges, or implants.
