Using Grey Curaprox Toothbrush for Sensitive Gums

Quick answer

Use the Grey Curaprox Toothbrush with its ultra-fine Curen bristles and small head to clean gently along the gumline without irritation.

How to brush with the Grey Curaprox for sensitive gums

1. Step 1: Wet the bristles and apply a pea-sized amount of toothpaste: Run the brush head under lukewarm water to soften the Curen fibers slightly. Use a non-abrasive toothpaste if your gums are very tender. Avoid pressing the toothpaste into the bristles—let it sit on the surface.
2. Step 2: Angle the brush at 45 degrees toward the gumline: Hold the toothbrush so the bristles point where the tooth meets the gum. Use a gentle, circular motion for two to three seconds per tooth. A common mistake is scrubbing back and forth; this can push the gums away. Stick to small circles.
3. Step 3: Brush the outer, inner, and chewing surfaces of every tooth: Work systematically from one side of the mouth to the other. The small head of the Grey Curaprox makes it easier to reach the back molars without gagging. Don't rush the inner surfaces of the front teeth—they often get missed.
4. Step 4: Rinse the brush and store it upright to air-dry: After brushing, rinse the bristles under running water and shake off excess moisture. Store the brush in a holder with the head pointing up. Never store the brush in a closed container while wet—bacteria can grow on the bristles.
