Empowering independent oral care through superior ergonomics.

Maintaining the integrity of your smile shouldn't be a struggle. The TePe Extra Grip is a specialized handle extension designed for individuals with reduced manual dexterity, joint pain, or those who simply find standard toothbrush handles too thin to hold comfortably. This simple yet transformative tool provides a firm, steady hold, making your recommended daily care easier, more effective, and more comfortable.

Why is the TePe Extra Grip an essential hygiene aid?

Standard toothbrushes and interdental brushes require fine motor skills that can be difficult for those with arthritis or other hand-strength challenges. The TePe Extra Grip solves this by increasing the surface area of the handle, allowing for a "power grip" rather than a "pinch grip". It is an effective remedy for the frustration of slipping brushes, ensuring that you can apply the correct pressure and reach every surface of your teeth with confidence. Developed in collaboration with occupational therapists, this grip is a testament to TePe’s commitment to inclusive oral health.

Key Benefits:

• Universal Fit: Specifically designed to fit TePe Select and TePe Soft toothbrushes, as well as TePe interdental brushes (via the cap).
• Ergonomic Shape: The thick, contoured design fits naturally into the palm of the hand, reducing strain on the fingers and wrist.
• Non-Slip Material: Made from a soft-touch, high-friction material that stays secure even when wet.
• Lightweight Design: Adds significant volume without adding unnecessary weight, preventing hand fatigue during brushing.
• Easy to Clean: Dishwasher-safe and made from durable, hygienic plastic for long-term use.

How to use the TePe Extra Grip:

• Insert: Simply slide your TePe toothbrush handle or interdental brush cap into the central opening of the Extra Grip.
• Position: Push the brush through until it is firmly wedged and the head is at your desired distance.
• Brush: Use a relaxed, full-hand grip to navigate your mouth with improved leverage and stability.
• Maintain: Remove the brush periodically to wash the grip with warm water or place it in the dishwasher.

Ideal For:

• Arthritis & Rheumatism: Reduces the need for tight finger gripping that can cause joint pain.
• Elderly Users: Provides the stability needed for those with declining hand strength or tremors.
• Children: Can help young kids who are still developing their fine motor skills to hold their brush correctly.
• Anyone seeking comfort: Sometimes a larger handle is just more comfortable for a thorough, two-minute clean.
