A specially designed handle that fits any TePe toothbrush, making brushing easier for those with arthritis, Parkinson's, or children who prefer a broader grip.
An Extra Grip Brush Holder should be used alongside any TePe toothbrush. The handle is specially designed to assist people who find it difficult to hold a standard toothbrush handle — for example, those with arthritis or Parkinson's. It can also be advantageous for children, who tend to be more comfortable using a broader handle.
Once the brush has been placed within the handle it is firmly fixed and there is no danger of it falling out when brushing.
The handle should come out using simply finger pressure, but if it remains in place tap the end of it on a table to release the brush.
Any toothpaste left on the handle should be cleaned off using hot water and a little brush. It is dishwasher-proof. You can ask your dentist for more information on the use of an Extra Grip Brush Holder if unsure.
