Healthy Gums Made Easy
 
GUM® Go-Betweens® Proxabrush Cleaners by Sunstar Americas Inc Product Profile

Product Facts

According to the American Dental Association, six out of eight patients will eventually exhibit some form of periodontal disease. GUM Go-Betweens Proxabrush Cleaners reduce gingivitis and remove plaque between teeth, effectively helping prevent periodontal disease before it starts. GUM Go-Betweens are ideal for:

• Marginal inflammation—cleaning along the gingival margin.
• Open embrasures—tapered brush fits small areas.
• Large interdental spaces resulting from periodontal disease and/or restorations.
• Orthodontia or bridges—removes food and plaque between teeth and under appliances.
• Implants—the wide Go-Betweens cleaner is nylon coated to prevent scratching or damage.

Designed With Input From Dental Hygienists

The new GUM Go-Betweens Proxabrush cleaners were developed based on dental hygienists' recommendations including:

• Color Coding—patients can be easily directed to the correct product using color coding.
• Contact Size—tight, moderate, and wide icons make it easy to recommend the correct product.

• Communication—package highlights brush size, antibacterial bristles, and retail package photo.
• The simplified product offering reduces confusion regarding which interdental brush to recommend and improves patient compliance, resulting in healthier gums and teeth.
