Professional TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush for Global Oral Care Brands
Our TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush has been carefully developed for international oral care companies looking to expand or upgrade their interdental product line with a reliable, comfortable, and user-friendly brush. The flat grip design offers enhanced control and stability in the hand, allowing end users to reach narrow spaces between teeth and around orthodontic appliances and implants with confidence. For global buyers, the product delivers a scalable, compliant, and cost-effective option that can be integrated into existing portfolios alongside toothbrushes, floss, dental picks, and whitening products.As a Hong Kong and China based oral care manufacturer, we focus on combining ergonomic design with modern materials. The TPE flat handle is soft to the touch yet firm enough to provide a secure grip, even when hands are wet, while the plastic-coated wire and fine bristles are designed to glide gently between teeth without scratching enamel or irritating gum tissue when used correctly. This combination of comfort and efficiency makes the brush a practical daily-use product for consumers and a stable, repeat-purchase SKU for brands and distributors.Key Features and Advantages of the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush
The TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush is built around a series of core features that target both end-user comfort and clinical effectiveness, while also addressing the commercial demands of global oral care markets. By combining carefully selected materials, a human-centered handle design, and flexible OEM/ODM options, this product supports dental professionals who recommend interdental cleaning and brand owners who need a reliable, differentiated product in a competitive category.High-Quality TPE Flat Grip Handle
The first element most users notice is the flat TPE grip. Unlike round or very slim handles that can be difficult for some users to hold securely, the flat-profile handle offers a stable, non-slip surface that naturally aligns between the fingers. This is particularly helpful for elderly users, people with reduced hand dexterity, or anyone who struggles with very small interdental tools. The TPE material provides a soft, slightly elastic touch that remains comfortable even during multiple passes between teeth. For brand owners, the handle also offers a generous printable area for logos, color branding, and regulatory information, helping reinforce brand recognition every time the brush is used.Ergonomic Control for Precise Interdental Cleaning
The flat geometry of the handle is not only about comfort; it also contributes to better precision and control. Interdental spaces can be delicate, especially in patients with sensitive gums, orthodontic brackets, bridges, or implants. A flat grip allows users to orient the brush correctly and adjust the angle more easily, reducing the risk of slipping or applying excessive pressure. This supports more effective plaque removal in the interdental area and improves user confidence, making it more likely that consumers will maintain interdental cleaning as part of their daily routine and continue to purchase the product.Plastic-Coated Wire for Gentle Contact
At the core of the brush head is a plastic-coated wire that provides structure and flexibility. The plastic coating acts as a protective layer between the metal wire and the tooth surface, helping prevent scratching or damage to enamel and dental restorations when the brush is correctly sized and gently inserted. This makes the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush especially useful for patients with dental implants, crowns, or bridges, where metal-to-surface contact should be minimized. From a manufacturing standpoint, the coating also contributes to corrosion resistance, supporting product reliability throughout its intended shelf life.Fine, Densely Packed Bristles
The brush head is formed with fine, high-density bristles that are designed to adapt to the shape of the interdental space. When the correctly sized brush is used, the bristles make gentle, elastic contact with the tooth surfaces, dislodging plaque biofilm and food particles that regular toothbrush bristles often miss. The density and uniformity of the bristles are controlled during production to provide consistent performance from brush to brush, which is essential for brands that promote clinical-level cleaning and rely on repeat purchases driven by user satisfaction and professional recommendation.Multiple Size Options for Different Interdental Gaps
Because no two mouths are exactly the same, the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush can be produced in a range of sizes to match narrow, medium, and wide interdental spaces. In many markets, end users are advised to consult a dental professional to identify the correct size for each region of the mouth, and it is common for a single user to need more than one size. From a product line perspective, offering multiple ISO-equivalent sizes allows distributors and brand owners to provide complete assortments, mix packs, or clinic starter kits that cover the most common clinical needs while also allowing upsell and repeat purchase opportunities. Color-coding can be applied to each size to help users identify their preferred size at a glance and reduce confusion at home or in the clinic.Flexible OEM/ODM Customization
As an international oral care factory and producer in Hong Kong and China, we offer full OEM and ODM services around the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush. This includes custom brush sizes, handle shapes, TPE hardness, color combinations, packaging formats, logo printing, and private-label branding.

Manufacturing Excellence from Hong Kong and China
Behind each TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush is a structured, export-oriented manufacturing process operated by our integrated oral care facilities in Hong Kong and Mainland China. Our experience as an international oral care products factory and producer allows us to serve global brands at scale while maintaining the flexibility to support smaller, high-value niche brands with specialized product requirements and smaller MOQ programs. We work with partners that supply dental clinics, pharmacies, supermarkets, e-commerce platforms, and professional distributors across Asia, Europe, the Americas, and the Middle East.Materials and Quality Control
We source medical-grade and food-contact compliant materials for the TPE handle, polypropylene cores, plastic-coated wires, and bristle filaments to ensure that each component meets the hygiene and safety expectations of modern oral care consumers. Every batch is subject to incoming inspections, in-process checks, and final quality audits to verify dimensions, bristle density, wire coating integrity, and handle performance. For brand owners, this consistent quality is essential to maintaining a trusted product line that can be confidently recommended by dental professionals and promoted at scale across diverse markets.Regulatory and Certification Support
Oral care products sold in different regions may need to comply with varied regulatory frameworks, labelling rules, and documentation requirements. As a seasoned manufacturer, we provide regulatory support documentation such as material declarations, test reports, and conformity statements, and we can assist customers in aligning packaging artwork with local requirements regarding language, warnings, symbols, and recycling information. For brands that operate across multiple regions, we can harmonize packaging components and artwork templates to simplify logistics and minimize complexity while still meeting country-specific rules.OEM and Private Label Services
Many of our partners use the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush as the foundation for a private-label or OEM program tailored to their brand image and market positioning. We can support:• Custom molding of handle design, including unique shapes, thumb rests, texture patterns, and hanging holes. • Selection of TPE hardness and color combinations to match brand identity or product families. • Choice of bristle quality, stiffness, and head length to address sensitive, standard, or intensive cleaning categories. • Design and production of blister cards, hanging packs, travel cases, clinic sample bags, or retail boxes. • Application of logos, batch coding, and barcodes suitable for large-scale retail and e-commerce distribution.Our development team can work from your own drawings and concepts or collaborate with your product managers and designers to create a unique solution that still benefits from our established tooling and manufacturing efficiencies.How the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush Supports Oral Health
From a clinical perspective, interdental brushes are widely recognized as one of the most effective tools for cleaning the spaces between teeth, especially where the gaps are large enough that dental floss does not fully contact the side surfaces. Removing plaque and trapped food from these spaces is essential for reducing the risk of gum inflammation, bleeding, gingivitis, periodontitis, and interproximal caries. With the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush, we focus on making this daily routine both practical and comfortable for users, to help turn professional advice into consistent home care habits.Effective Plaque Removal Between Teeth
When used in the appropriate size for each space, the brush’s fine bristles press lightly against the tooth surfaces and gently sweep out plaque biofilm and debris that a regular toothbrush often leaves behind. Because the bristles fill the gap and make mechanical contact against both sides of the teeth, they can remove plaque more efficiently than floss in some situations, especially around triangular gaps near the gum line or around fixed restorations and orthodontic brackets. Users who adopt interdental brushes as part of their routine frequently report that their teeth feel smoother and cleaner, and dentists often observe reduced bleeding and inflammation at recall visits when interdental cleaning is performed consistently.Support for Gum Health and Fresh Breath
One of the main reasons dental professionals recommend interdental brushes is their ability to help manage gum health. Plaque accumulation at the gum line and between teeth is a primary driver of gingival inflammation, which can manifest as redness, swelling, and bleeding when brushing or flossing. By physically disrupting plaque in these areas, the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush supports healthier gums and can contribute to fresher breath, since trapped food and bacterial buildup between teeth are common sources of oral malodor. Combined with regular toothbrushing and professional cleanings, interdental brushing is an important part of a complete oral hygiene strategy.Use Around Orthodontic Appliances, Implants, and Bridges
Patients with orthodontic brackets, wires, dental implants, or bridges often need more targeted tools to keep hard-to-reach spaces clean. The plastic-coated wire and fine bristles of the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush can be used carefully around these structures to remove plaque without scratching titanium or ceramic surfaces when a suitable size is selected and gentle technique is used. For brands that work closely with orthodontists and implantologists, offering an interdental brush that is compatible with these clinical needs can strengthen professional partnerships and expand the scope of recommended home-care products.Daily Use and Integration into Oral Care Routines
To achieve meaningful benefits, interdental brushing should be part of a daily oral care routine. Many professionals recommend using the brush at least once per day, often in the evening before or after toothbrushing. The flat grip design makes it easier for users to integrate this step without feeling that it is overly complicated or time-consuming, as the handle is intuitive to hold and orient. When brands communicate simple, clear instructions and realistic daily routines, consumers are more likely to adopt interdental cleaning as a habit rather than an occasional extra step.How to Use the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush
Proper technique is essential for safe and effective interdental cleaning. The TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush has been designed to help users achieve correct insertion and movement, but clear instructions from brands, retailers, and dental professionals will further improve results and satisfaction. The following general usage guidance can be adapted into packaging leaflets, website content, training materials, and point-of-sale displays.Step 1: Choose the Correct Size
The first step is to select an appropriate size for each interdental space. If the brush is too small, it may not fully contact the tooth surfaces and will leave plaque behind; if it is too large, it may be difficult or uncomfortable to insert. Dental professionals can assist patients in identifying the best sizes, and some users may benefit from a mixed-size starter pack. As a simple guideline, there should be a feeling of gentle resistance from the bristles as the brush passes through the space, while the central wire should not be forced or bent against the tooth surfaces.Step 2: Hold the Flat Grip Comfortably
Hold the brush by the TPE flat grip handle using the thumb and forefinger, similar to how one might hold a small pencil or dental instrument. The flat shape helps the brush sit securely between the fingers, giving better awareness of orientation and applied force. For difficult-to-reach areas or users with limited mobility, the flat handle can also be gently rotated in the fingers to adjust the angle without straining the wrist.Step 3: Insert the Brush Gently Between Teeth
Position the tip of the brush at the entrance of the interdental space near the gum line. With a slight, controlled motion, insert the brush horizontally between the teeth. Do not force the brush, and avoid snapping it into the space as this can hurt the gums. If the brush does not fit easily, step down to a smaller size or consult a dental professional for guidance. For back teeth, small adjustments in angulation or using a slightly curved approach can help reach the contact area more easily.Step 4: Move the Brush Back and Forth
Once the brush is comfortably between the teeth, move it back and forth a few times in a straight motion to allow the bristles to sweep plaque and debris away from both tooth surfaces. Avoid twisting or forcing the brush as this can bend the wire or irritate the gum. After several passes, remove the brush, rinse it under running water to remove trapped debris, and proceed to the next interdental space. It is common to need more than one brush size for different regions of the mouth.Step 5: Rinse and Replace Regularly
After completing all spaces, rinse the brush thoroughly and let it air dry. For reasons of hygiene and performance, the brush should be replaced regularly, especially if the bristles become worn, deformed, or discolored, or if the wire appears bent or damaged. For retail and professional markets, we recommend clearly communicating replacement intervals on packaging and in patient instructions to encourage consistent performance and repeated purchase cycles.Applications for Dental Clinics, Retailers, and Distributors
The TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush supports a wide spectrum of business models in the oral care industry, from chairside professional recommendation to mass retail distribution and online subscription programs.

It is intended to complement regular toothbrushing by targeting areas that standard toothbrush bristles cannot effectively reach, helping to maintain gum health and reduce the risk of interproximal cavities and bad breath.
Who manufactures the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush?
The TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush is produced by an international oral care products factory and producer based in Hong Kong and China, specializing in the OEM and ODM manufacture of professional oral hygiene products for brands, distributors, pharmacies, dental clinics, and retailers worldwide. We focus on combining ergonomic designs with quality materials and export-compliant production systems.
What sizes are available for the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush?
The brush is available in multiple sizes that generally correspond to common ISO-equivalent diameters, typically ranging from approximately 0.4 mm for very narrow spaces to around 1.5 mm for very wide gaps. Each size can be color-coded for easy identification, and we can provide single-size or mixed-size packs depending on your brand strategy and market requirements. Custom size configurations are also possible for OEM and private-label programs.
Is the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush safe for sensitive gums and dental work?
When correctly sized and used with gentle technique, the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush is suitable for most users, including those with sensitive gums, orthodontic appliances, implants, crowns, and bridges. The wire is plastic-coated to help protect tooth and implant surfaces, and the bristles are designed to flex and adapt within the interdental space. Users with complex dental conditions should follow their dentist’s personalized recommendations regarding size selection and frequency of use.
How often should the interdental brush be used?
For most users, it is recommended to use the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush at least once a day as part of the regular oral care routine, often in the evening before or after toothbrushing. Consistent daily use helps to control plaque buildup between teeth and supports long-term gum health. Dental professionals may adjust this recommendation based on individual needs, such as periodontal maintenance or orthodontic treatment.
How long does each TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush last?
The lifespan of a single interdental brush depends on how often it is used and how carefully it is handled. In general, the brush should be replaced once the bristles become visibly worn, splayed, or discolored, or if the wire is bent or damaged. Many users replace their brush after several days to a couple of weeks of daily use, and brands typically recommend regular replacement to ensure optimal cleaning performance and hygiene.
Can the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush be customized for my brand?
Yes. As an OEM and ODM manufacturer, we offer extensive customization options, including handle shape, TPE color and hardness, bristle configuration, size range, color-coding system, and all aspects of packaging and labelling. We can integrate your brand logo, design language, and regulatory information into the product and packaging, and we provide technical and design support throughout the development and launch process.
How should the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush be cleaned and stored?
After each use, the brush should be rinsed thoroughly under running water to remove any remaining debris, then allowed to air dry in a clean, well-ventilated area. It should not be stored in a closed, damp environment for extended periods, as this may affect hygiene and bristle condition. For travel or on-the-go use, protective caps or cases can be used, and these should also be kept clean and dry between uses.
Is the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush suitable for children?
In general, interdental brushes can be used by older children and teenagers under the guidance of a dental professional and with adult supervision as needed, particularly if they wear orthodontic appliances. The flat grip handle can make it easier for younger users to hold the brush securely. However, size selection and technique should always be adapted to the child’s specific dentition and gum condition, and very young children should not use interdental brushes without professional and parental guidance.
How can I source the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush for my business?
Brands, distributors, and retailers who wish to add the TPE Flat Grip Interdental Brush to their product range can collaborate directly with our oral care factory and producer in Hong Kong and China.
