Medigy: Dental Devices, Home Care

Dental devices are tools and equipment that are used to prevent and treat oral health problems, and to maintain the overall health of the teeth and gums. These devices can be used at home or in a clinical setting and are typically recommended by a dentist or dental hygienist.

Some examples of dental devices that are used for home care include:

Toothbrushes: manual or electric toothbrushes that are used to clean the teeth and gums.

Dental floss: thin thread or tape that is used to clean between the teeth and remove plaque and food particles.

Interdental brushes: small, cone-shaped brushes that are used to clean between the teeth, especially in areas where flossing is difficult.

Water flossers: devices that use a stream of water to clean the teeth and gums, removing plaque and food particles.

Tongue scrapers: tools that are used to remove bacteria and debris from the surface of the tongue.

Mouthwash: liquids that are used to rinse the mouth and freshen breath.

Night guards and sports mouth guards: dental devices that are worn to protect the teeth from injury while playing sports or during sleep.

Orthodontic devices such as clear aligners, retainers and functional appliances used to move teeth to their desired position.

It’s important to note that the use of these dental devices should be supervised by a dental professional and the instructions should be followed to ensure the best results. Regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings are also necessary for maintaining overall oral health.
