GUM Proxabrush Permanent Handle Refills - Compatible with Go-Betweens Interdental Brushes - Floss Picks for Teeth, Braces, and Implants

Strong, well made.

Let me start of by stating I wear braces. As I deal with the triumphs and tribulations of wearing braces, regardless if you brush twice a day, you're not getting in-between the braces. You need this Proxabrush! It works, very, very, well. I have to basically brush my teeth twice. Once with this brush and then with a standard tooth brush. So let me start of with durability. It's durable if utilized for its intent. Delicate cleaning between teeth and hard to reach areas due to, braces or crooked teeth. This brush is not meant to have the same force applied as though it's a regular tooth brush. You must lightly utilize the brush when cleaning and it will last fir a long time. Lastly it's ease of use. Pop off the brush and slide a new one in and close. No science or calculus involved here. Again the use is for light pressure with repetitive movement. Then follow up with the tooth brush. For braces wearers, you definitely need this!!

This dental tool is delicate so be careful not to use too much force in order not to break it. So far I think it's worth it to me in terms of value. I already had the flossers that fit into this handle and the fit is right. The size of the handle is appropriate, neither too small nor too large for the purpose. I think it's easier to use than regular floss which I do both.

These long handles for the replaceable brushes work better for me than the disposable ones with the short handles. For some reason, none of the stores near me still sell these, even though they stock the brushes. I was glad to find this handle after lost mine on a recent trip.

Just like so many of the other reviewers, I found that GUM has changed the design and materials this handle is made with and it's extremely annoying to try to use, it now has a flimsy piece of plastic that snaps shut but doesn't stay shut so the brush falls out. You have to keep your fingers pinching it closed just in attempt to go between your teeth. So this means your fingers are in your mouth as you try to reach back teeth. Awful! The old design was great and lasted years. Just because it's GUM brand, don't feel confident in this piece of junk. I have a bunch of brush refills for this with nothing to use them with anymore! Beware!!!! Waste of money. Shame on GUM!!!!

Works well. Does what it’s supposed to with the right inserts (purchased separately).

There is a small design flaw in that the mechanism used to release the Interdental Brushes lies exactly where one needs to put a finger in order to push the brush all the way between the teeth. More than once, I've accidentally opened to release. I've gotten used to holding it lower, and I think I still cleans as well as the design that requires lifting the release vs. pushing on it. But can't really be sure. A nuisance from time to time when the top opens instead of pushing the brush between teeth.

This GUM Proxabrush was something my dentist recommended, and I used it every day

Replaced an earlier version. Very good handle for the interdental brushes and is much better to manoeuvre than the disposable brushes.

Genial para mantener la salud bucal y fácil de usar

Resistentes, no son tan frágiles como otras marcas, excelente opción para el uso de repuestos. Sin embargo en mi caso los anchos son muy grandes y los medianos muy pequeños para mis necesidades. Los cepillos de viaje de la misma marca, tienen 4 tamaños y no sólo 3 como éste, lo que los hace mejores. Ojalá mejoren la disponibilidad de la misma calibración que los de viaje.

Buena opción como cepillo interdental, y hasta ahora siempre hay los repuestos.

El diseño es muy bonito y me gusta mucho que tenga un seguro en el mecanismo para que no se salga el cepillo interdental. La marca GUM es garantía de calidad y función. Compré otro similar de otra marca muy conocida y no se compara con el de esta marca. Lo recomiendo
