Toothpicks are usually made of wood and bamboo, and with the maturity of processing technology, plastic toothpicks with lighter tips have begun to rise, and occupy a certain market share.
Born from Taiwan, Nessenklin is a manufacturer specializing in the production of oral care products, its dental floss products are more popular than toothpicks, which is also the current trend of oral appliances, compared to dental floss or interdental brushes, toothpicks appear bulky and outdated, but according to the recommendations of the American Dental Association (AOA), no matter what kind of oral cleaning appliances are used, as long as they are used properly, they can ensure effective oral cleaning. The general wooden toothpick is thicker, easy to compress the gums, causing damage, because of the large volume, it is difficult to change the direction of toothpicking, and the use is not as flexible as dental floss, while the plastic toothpick of Nessenglin is treated with a flat head, the tip is more compact, and it is more convenient to clean the gaps.
There are two types of plastic toothpicks from Nessenklin, which are leaf-shaped double-ended toothpicks and portable tooth pattern toothpicks. The leaf-shaped double-ended toothpick has a pointed flat end with small ribs on both sides to enhance friction to quickly remove food debris, and a leaf-shaped brush head on the other end that can be used as an interdental brush.
The interdental brush is similar to a mini test tube brush, which can effectively remove plaque on the adjacent surface of the teeth and control periodontal disease. Compared with dental floss, the interdental brush has more tentacles and stronger cleaning power, especially suitable for periodontal patients, users of dentition correction or fixed dentures, and is one of the tools to keep the mouth clean.
The brush head of the Nessenglin leaf-shaped double-ended toothpick can clean the gap between the teeth deeply, but it is slightly different from the general interdental brush, and the plastic edges are stiff compared to the bristles, which is suitable for users with larger gaps between the teeth, otherwise there will be a strong foreign body sensation when cleaning. Leaf-shaped double-ended toothpicks come in a casual box, which can hold 50 toothpicks at a time, and can be used at any time when you go out, so you can clean your teeth in time.
The other is a small box of portable toothpicks, the tip of which is in the shape of a crescent with toothed patterns, and the thickness is only 0.4mm, which is flat and easy to enter between the teeth and will not hurt the gums. The tail end has a threaded design to enhance friction and provide a more stable grip.
