Glide Threader Floss, 30-Count Boxes of Single-Use Packets (Pack of 4)

Awesome

I have upper and a bottom retainer. I hate threading floss. It’s a nice to have this floss. I will buy it over and over.

The first thing I noticed when I got braces (round 2, wear your retainers kids) was my usual ritual of hitting up the Glide Pro-Health floss was totally out. I think Glide makes the best floss, on the opposite end of the spectrum of that stuff you can buy at gas stations which is about as good as a thread from a dirty shirt. At first I tried what I was given, to loop or tie it on those fishing line threaders. Thats like running hard, pokey plastic through your teeth before each pull, and accidentally biting down is like getting a small piece of bone, almost enough to break a tooth I swear. You would be forgiven for thinking those were the only solution looking in stores or from what the orthodontist says, its only thanks to Amazon I ever heard of these. This integrates a bit of rigid line in the end of the floss, unimpeded by annoying bumps or knots (unless you make one, which will be as gentle as doing that with Glide normally). I did have to deduct a star because it is possible to pull the threader back and have it peel open. The thread does not shred in a low quality fashion, its just it may slowly peel back starting at the base of the threader, revealing a bit of hard line that not only could poke you with extra hard leverage, but perhaps contains a slightly odd, although not orally unsafe adhesive. Really Ive only done this a few times, and I probably shouldnt be pulling the threader backwards even though I like to. Plus its that internal hint of firm, waxy gel that really gives this its bend and push and makes it work so well. Im just happy I can keep using Glide like nothings changed, and Im sure Ill keep these on hand even when Im done with braces.

Exactly as described and quick shipping

My dentist recommended this floss ten years ago. Easier to keep hold of while flossing then the other kinds I’ve used.

Works for me and full implants to get where I normally can’t reach! A must have for screwed in dental implants.

Like it better then other brands because the end point is perfect size. Other brands point is thick and blunt and hurts to use

Without these, I hate flossing my teeth so much that it just usually doesnt happen more than a few times a month. With these, I can do it every day or at least almost every day. I have orthodontic brackets behind my top AND bottom teeth. If you have brackets too, or braces, these things are a life saver. . . or at least a cavity saver. I stock up and buy in bulk because my wife has a bracket too and resents how annoying it makes flossing even more than I do. Give them a try. It hurts how pricey they are, but its cheaper and less painful (and less gross) than not flossing regularly and needing extensive dental work done in the future. Hopefully thats helpful.

I love this stuff. I started using it when I just had a bridge but now have a permanent bottom retainer too. This makes flossing so easy, especially after having worn braces and teeth are tighter together. Also nice to not have to use floss threader. Individually packaging makes it great for traveling.

Please see my ratings above. This product is perfect for me, but I only speak for myself. Thank you Glide Threader Floss producers - I am very happy with your product! Carol C.
