DenTek Easy Brush Cleaners —

   Well, really! Toothpicks are kind of gauche, and flossing in a public bathroom or in the car is darned inconvenient and a little yucky.
   Enter Dentek's Easy Brush Cleaners. Here are little brushes on safety-coated thin wires, each with a flexible handle that fits into its cap to make the whole "appliance" longer (a little less than four inches) and easier to use. The Easy Brush Cleaners come in a plastic case of five with different colored handles for, I assume, different members of the family.
   I use Easy Brush during the day, at home and away, whenever something -- a poppyseed, a piece of spinach, popcorn hulls, etc. -- gets caught in my close-together teeth. I like mine best when the brush itself bends and I can fit the curve to my gums.
   Be advised that there can be some tooth spaces too close for comfort. These I catch when I floss at night. Pushing a brush into a tiny space can make gums bleed. I also have found that moving the brush back and forth as recommended both by Dentek and my dental hygienist can be very uncomfortable, so I take it very easy with this maneuver.
     The Easy Brush can be used on interdental spaces and dental appliances as well as just teeth. Rinse the brush after use and count on it lasting quite a while, especially if you can adapt your routine to the inevitable bending of the brush.
     Apart from the fact that Dentek's product sounds like it might clean brushes instead of teeth, I've found their directions very good and their packaging excellent. Dentek even includes a fixed mirror in the plastic case. Now that's a really neat touch if you are out and about and think you might need a quick fix.
     I found my Easy Brushes at CVS.
