SOLO Oral Health Care, Small Brushes, Big Results
Why you need to brush tooth by tooth
Brushing your teeth with a standard toothbrush isn’t enough to keep your mouth truly healthy. Most people brush too quickly and miss the most important areas – along the gum line and between the teeth. These are exactly where cavities, gum disease, and sensitivity often begin.
SOLO Prophylaxis
Traditional toothbrushes, whether manual or electric, are designed to clean multiple teeth at once, but they often miss plaque hidden in the most vulnerable areas. That’s why the Solo Swing brush is a valuable addition to your oral healthcare routine. Its conical shape is designed to clean one tooth at a time, allowing you to target the areas that matter most, the margins of the tooth itself.
How the SOLO system works
- Solo Swing single-tooth brush
The soft, cone shaped brush is used in a gentle, sweeping oval motion along each tooth’s gum line or margin. Instead of brushing vigorously, you press the bristles gently against the tooth, so they flatten slightly, then glide the brush to remove plaque without harming your gums. This respects gum sensitivity and helps avoid damage from hard bristles or aggressive brushing.
- Solo-Stix interdental brushes
Most decay and gum issues start in the tight spaces between teeth – areas that floss often can’t fully clean. Solo Stix interdental brushes come in a range of sizes to gently and precisely clean between teeth, removing plaque and supporting healthy, inflammation free gums.
Why targeted tooth brushing matters
Did you know that 95% of harmful plaque builds up along the gum line, in fissures, and between teeth? That’s why the Solo method offers more than just a clean feeling, it provides a true preventive method of oral health care.
Using the Solo prophylaxis system takes only a few minutes a day but can significantly reduce the risk of cavities, bleeding gums, and costly dental treatments.
