If I remember correctly, it's mostly inter-dental brushing/flushing to avoid gum related problems or food getting stuck (infections)

That's what I thought, thanks. Interdental brushing is the one and only unavoidable cleaning procedure even if all your teeth are artificial, it seems.

Gums and inter-teeth space are still prone to pollution that can easily grow to infections and ultimately nasty stuff like periodontitis (I got operated to be cured of it several years ago).
