  The innovation behind the Squirt Brush was to improve the problematic areas of all dental symptoms and diseases. The Squirt Brush provides maximum cleaning efficiency by using the interproximal brush with the attached refillable bottle to deliver a variety of mouth rinses for irrigation and disinfection. Patients will be benefit from using the Squirt Brush for their oral hygiene needs. It provides easy trouble-free usage and is conveniently packaged for portability. There is no equivalent product in the dental market; therefore, I went out of my way to invent the Squirt Brush. Mechanical debridement is essential to controlling plaque accumulation especially in cervical and interproximal areas. Subgingival irrigation has also been proven to aid in reducing the levels of periodontal pathogens. The design of the Squirt Brush allows the accomplishment of both. It delivers any type of irrigant to the brush head allowing simultaneous debridement and local delivery of the irrigant. It could potentially be a useful adjunct in controlling the periodontal disease process.

In the treatment of active periodontal disease, scaling and root planning is essential for the removal of bacteria and plaque from the subgingival areas. After the dentist performs this procedure, patients are generally required to maintain the treated areas with proper oral hygiene on a daily basis. For this reason, the interproximal brush can be used to brush straight into those areas. However, the negative aspect is that the brush is dry and without medicament. Therefore, bacteria and germs cannot be cleansed. Only mouthwash can treat and disinfect bacteria. Another problem is mouthwash cannot penetrate deep in-between the teeth and gums where periodontitis is most prevalent. That’s why we’ve created the Interproximal Squirt Brush. The Squirt Brush was introduced to maximize cleaning efficiency for difficult to maintain areas: the interproximal area around back teeth, fixed partial denture, and implants. The Squirt Brush also functions to simultaneously brush and apply chlorohexidine mouth rinse to those areas that need cleansing the most. A combination of brushing and irrigating of the interproximal areas can greatly increase patient compliance during the maintenance periods.  


Benefits of The Interproximal SquirtBrush

The purpose for conventional interproximal brush with mouth rinse is for irrigation and disinfection. Mouth rinse kills bacteria while the brush removes plaques. When used simultaneously, this powerful combination can maximize cleaning efficiency. For patients with gum disease, Squirt Brush can be used to deliver antibacterial mouth rinse to the most affected areas. The Squirt Brush is very effective for cleaning and maintaining spaces between teeth and areas around implants and bridges. The Squirt Brush is also especially practical for orthodontic patients since it can be filled with fluoride mouth rinse, and it also can be refilled with any type of mouthwash. Like your ordinary toothbrush and toothpaste, the Squirt Brush and mouthwash is an effective combination for maximum cleansing of the interproximal and hard-to-reach areas. The Squirt Brush is a simple, low price device with an effective end result. It provides easy trouble-free usage and is conveniently packaged for portability, and there is no equivalent product in the dental market. Therefore, I went out of my way to invent the Squirt Brush.

 Feedbacks of The Interproximal SquirtBrush

As a founder and creator of the Squirt Brush, I see a lot of patients that could definitely benefit from this new oral hygiene device. Being in the dental field for close to 20 years, I have used many very useful items for maintaining the interproximal areas between teeth. But not one has the combination of both brush and antimicrobial rinse combined in one unit. As a private practice dentist, I have seen many patients with periodontal pockets mostly in the interproximal areas. This is also the most difficult area to maintain for most patients. By introducing the Squirt Brush to the dental market, it gives the patients and dental professionals another additional device to maintain a healthy gum. All types of patient can benefit from the use of this device, such as: orthodontic, periodontic, prosthodontic, implant, and endodontic. Even healthy patients who dislike flossing can use this device to maintain a healthy interproximal area. Benefited from this flexibility to fill the bottle with any kind of mouth rinse, hence, increasing the multi-purpose usage of this brush.
