Abstract : Bacterial plaque is the dominant etiological factor in periodontitis, furthermore it has been convincingly demonstrated that gingivitis is most frequent and most severe in interproximal area. Tooth brushing is indispensable for maintaining oral hygiene. However tooth brushing alone is not sufficient in interproximal area. Interdental aids provide auxiliary assistance. Lack of use of these may leads to interproximal caries and periodontitis.
