Best Interdental Brushes of 2025

"I began wearing braces and these small brushes have been instrumental in maintaining my flossing routine. The bristles are tiny enough to clean the small spaces between my teeth and can be bent as required. Each brush tends to break after 3-4 uses, which is understandable given the thinness of the wire. I just wish they would last longer."

"These brushes are great for a more comprehensive clean. They effectively clean between the teeth, almost like having a mini brush for the gaps in your teeth. I use them in conjunction with regular floss. Sometimes, they're able to remove food particles or plaque that regular floss can't reach, since the brushes can latch onto debris and thoroughly clean it out.

My dental hygienist recommended these brushes, and I've noticed my teeth are always cleaner when I use them."

"My 8-year-old has braces and these brushes have been a game-changer for her. Her braces cover almost her entire tooth, making it difficult for her to brush her molars. These brushes can easily reach the small spaces in the back of her mouth. We apply toothpaste on these brushes and that's how she cleans her back molars. She takes these brushes to school and can clean her teeth after lunch. We use a lot of these brushes, but they're definitely worth it."

"As the title suggests, I would only recommend these brushes if you have varying sizes of gaps between your teeth!

Pros: They're great for first-time interdental brush users as you can always find the right size to suit your needs.

Cons: If, like me, you have small gaps between your teeth, it might result in a lot of waste."

"The spaces between my teeth vary in size. I appreciate the different size options these brushes offer - they clean more effectively and remove food particles I didn't even realize were there.

Interestingly, these brushes also come in handy for cleaning my hummingbird feeder! I don't want the birds to get sick from germs in their feeding hole!"

"I got metal braces last year and I was initially buying bristle toothpicks from Walmart, but they would break quickly. I discovered these brushes about 8 months ago and I'm very satisfied with my purchase. They're easy to carry around, fit in your purse, or take on trips. I love the different lengths and widths, and they work well for both tight and wide spaces in the braces and teeth. This is my third time buying them and I will likely continue to use them even after my braces are removed."

"I find these widgets addictive; I can't live without them! They’re even better than flossing. It's crucial to get the right size since they come in different diameters. Too big won’t fit, and too small won't brush properly. I always keep one with me and think they’re well worth the price. I highly recommend them!"

"I carry this wide size with me everywhere, and it cleans between my teeth better than any other product I’ve tried. After using it along with my Oral-B electric toothbrush, I always get excellent checkups at the dentist!"

"These products are wonderful for braces. I find them easy to use and effective, especially for cleaning brackets. They arrived on time and were well-packaged. I consider this purchase a great investment and would buy them again without hesitation!"

"I agree with a community comment about these brush/picks, with some modifications. My mom has implants, and despite her efforts to brush, she struggles to clean between the crown and gum line, where cavities often develop. These brush/picks are incredibly useful for that. They come in various sizes, making it easy to get into hard-to-reach areas. I've tried toothbrushes and waterpiks, but nothing works as well as these. They are strong yet gentle, and a great bargain compared to competitors like Gum and Dentek!"

"As a parent, getting my kids to brush well with braces was a challenge. These sticks are exactly what they need! They help keep the spaces behind the wire and between the brackets clean. They are quick to use, so it only takes a few extra seconds. Plus, my kids can easily carry them in their backpacks, making it less embarrassing than pulling out a toothbrush in school. Our kids loved them and actually used them. That's half the battle!"

"These are a must-have for anyone with braces! They are great for cleaning between and around braces, leaving my teeth feeling very clean after use. The brush isn’t too thin, so it does a good job. The only minor issue is that the wire can be a bit bendable, but overall, I'm very satisfied!"

"As an adult, I recently started my journey with traditional braces, and I love this interdental brush to clean around my brackets and between my teeth. It’s a great value, especially since it comes in four different sizes. It’s durable yet flexible, making it perfect for my needs."

"I’ve been purchasing these brushes for years at drugstores, and I find these to be exactly the same quality but at a much better price! They’re fantastic for anyone, especially if you have braces or bridges."

"I’m thrilled to have these interdental brushes! A hygienist recommended them years ago, and my husband and I use them regularly. They’re so well-priced and come in various sizes, making them easy to use and absolutely habit-forming."

"These Dentek Easy Brush Interdental Cleaners work great for cleaning between my teeth. I find them to be an excellent product!"

"After starting to use these brushes, I realized they were a real game changer. The flexibility allows them to fit perfectly between my teeth, and the bristles are soft yet sturdy. I highly recommend using them daily!"

"My hygienist suggested these for removing food particles, and I can say they work great. I also appreciate the convenience they offer."

"I was excited to try different sizes, but I found only one brush worked for me. The others were too big for my gaps, and the smallest was still a struggle. The brush felt a bit short and bent too easily, which made it uncomfortable when the metal poked my gums."

"I think these brushes are great! While I found many sizes in the assortment a bit large for my teeth, that's why I purchased it—to discover which size would suit me best."

"I had a painful gum pocket that didn't improve with brushing or flossing, and these brushes really helped heal it. They do bend a little when used on tight spots, but holding them at the base of the bristles makes it easy to manage."

"I've been using GUM picks for years and recently tried these advanced picks. They're a game changer! I can reach far back, and they don't bend like the others. I prefer these over floss—they're faster and work better!"

"Not a fan of flossing due to tight spaces and complications with my retainers. These picks make 'flossing' so quick and easy! They have a slight minty taste and easily reach back teeth. My dental hygiene has improved so much that I can now wait longer between cleanings!"

"I was amazed at how effective these little picks are. They easily slide between my teeth and dislodge food particles without discomfort. I brush and floss regularly, but I always feel cleaner after using these!"

"At first, I was a bit skeptical, but I decided to try these little brushes. They impressed me right away with how well they cleaned between my teeth. It felt like brushing instead of just flossing. Now, I use them daily and appreciate the different sizes available for tight spots. I don't miss regular floss at all!"

"I love these for post-meal cleaning! They fit easily between my teeth, and I just need a tiny bit of toothpaste to make them perfect. They're also so easy to carry around since the caps keep them sanitary in my purse. I'll definitely reorder once I run out!"

"I couldn't find these in my local stores anymore, but I'm thrilled Amazon carries them in bulk. They are exactly what I've been using for years, and at a great price!"

"My dentist suggested these to make flossing more accessible for me. I have ADHD, and flossing will never be a habit. With my tight teeth, these brushes are super easy to use and I’m much more likely to use them. They feel more comfortable than traditional floss and I love the convenient cap for packing them in my bag."

"I've been a fan of GUM brand brushes for years but couldn't find the larger ones. I tried the Reach brush and while it’s not as big, it still provides the right size for my larger gaps. I’m satisfied with its performance!"

"These brushes are perfect for cleaning around my permanent retainers! Flossing is a struggle for me, but these do a fantastic job. I also use a water pick, and together they keep my teeth feeling very clean!"
