Rotadent: The Ultimate Guide to Effective Interdental Cleaning

Rotadent provides an efficient alternative to manual brushing and flossing with its patented brush technology and specialized brush tips. The Rotadent design promotes plaque removal between teeth and around the gum line, where manual brushing and flossing can miss.

Significance

• Dr. Dan Peterson of Family Gentle Dental Care describes Rotadent as an automatic perio cleaning tool that is used to clean and polish teeth. More importantly, Rotadent cleans between teeth to reduce plaque build-up that can cause cavities and gum disease.

Features

• The Rotadent cleaning tool has a rotating brush head that contains patented brush tips that don't require pushing or pressure on teeth or sensitive gums. Rotadent offers different types of brush heads to serve a variety of needs, such as cleaning between braces or for sensitive gums. These include the hollow cup brush head, short tip brush head and elongated tip brush head. The unit comes with a cord, charging stand and holder; packages include the unit, Rota-points for between teeth cleaning and a tongue cleaner.

Considerations

• Check with your dentist regarding which brush head or combination of brush heads will best serve your dental needs, as well as any dental paste or washes to use with brushing.
