Influence of tooth brush grips and brushing techniques on plaque removal efficacy

Our study confirms what other clinical studies have
established: that the modified Bass technique is an effective
method for plaque removal. It shows that the modified Bass
technique is significantly more effective than the modified
Stillman’s technique. Furthermore, we have established that
the use of the modified Bass technique in conjunction with a
distal oblique grip or an oblique grip is more efficient than its
use in conjunction with other grips.
