The Patient‐Centred Interdental Cleaning Concept—Consensus Based on a Round Table

Barriers to implementing interdental cleaning recommendations must be explored to provide practical solutions for the general population and dental care professionals. Strategies should include developing easily translatable educational content endorsed by professional societies to raise awareness, promoting behaviour change, tailoring care to individual needs, improving product usability, managing costs and addressing discomfort. It is also essential to align recommendations within the dental profession and prioritise interdental care in clinical practice, emphasising evidence-based guidelines and collaborative education efforts to ensure effective interdental hygiene practices are adopted.

Abstract

Barriers to implementing interdental cleaning recommendations must be explored to provide practical solutions for the general population and dental care professionals. Strategies should include developing easily translatable educational content endorsed by professional societies to raise awareness, promoting behaviour change, tailoring care to individual needs, improving product usability, managing costs and addressing discomfort. It is also essential to align recommendations within the dental profession and prioritise interdental care in clinical practice, emphasising evidence-based guidelines and collaborative education efforts to ensure effective interdental hygiene practices are adopted.
