Indications for use include; sensitive gums; gums bleed upon brushing; hyper-gag reflex; post-operative conditions; and a first time user of the curved bristle. A growing number of chemotherapy patients are beginning to use it too as it has proved to be ideal for them. The bristle is curved and flexible to gently flex and rotate around undercut and malpositioned teeth.
