Don’t know what happened with these. I’ve used them for years. The ones I received in June 2019 are thinner and they are coiled instead of folded. It’s like flossing with sewing thread. I won’t buy again online. Read more

This threader is the best floss for anyone with a permanent retainer.The floss is all individually wrapped which is the pro and con about this floss (more on that later). The reason why I love this floss so much is because it is a threader and floss in one and the floss itself is very soft. Since I have sensitive gums these help out a lot. The threader part is a little thicker which makes it more rigid but it keeps the soft exterior making threading very easy. Once I'm done with the threading section of my teeth I use the floss for regular flossing. The length is long enough where I can wrap it around my fingers multiple times. This is the only product that I have through Amazon where I have it on automatic order.PROS:■ Individually wrapped■ Soft on gums■ Long length■ Threader and floss in oneCONS:■ Unwrapping the floss sometimes causes the floss to knot itself (which is a byproduct of the way the manufacturer individually wraps them)■ 30 to a pack wish there was a larger option■ Since the floss is so soft, there are times towards the end of my flossing that the floss breaksNone of these cons were a deal breaker or frustrate me enough to try a new product, which is why these are on automatic order.

If you have braces, buy this floss. My dentist gave me a pack of Oral-B Superfloss. Let me tell you, the Superfloss super sucks. It turned every flossing session into agony as I struggled to de-tangle the fuzz-wad from my brackets. After 2 or 3 repeats of that experience, I gave up and started using those green plastic floss threaders. They work much better but can be quite a chore as well. And pray that you're not flossing in a public restroom and you drop your threader on the counter. Barf!So now I've got my Oral-B Glide Pro-Health Threader Floss. This floss is super awesome. It's trimmed down my floss time significantly. Yes it's expensive. Yes the packaging leaves some to be desired (individually wrapped, really?). Yes the tips have a small dangly bit that is not "rigid". Yes, it would be nice if it were sold in a box with more than 30 inside. I don't care. This floss makes living with my braces way easier. The packaging could have personal insults written on each wrapper and I'd still love it. For all its faults, I will continue buying this floss until the glorious day that I get my braces removed. Then I'll be going back to the regular Glide floss I've been using for years. Read more

When I was younger, I had tons of orthodontic work and had to use the old school blue plastic threaders with regular floss. My daughter got her braces on this past Spring and they sent her home with a ton of those blue threaders. I thought, "Oh, great, she's going to get so frustrated." After looking more in her sample bag from the orthodontist, they had included one sample of these Oral-B Threader Floss packets. I opened the package and was amazed and slightly jealous that they didn't have these "back in the day" lol. After trying each of the types of threaders, my daughter was in love with these (as much as you can love flossing I guess, lol). My mom visited recently and she has a permanent retainer on the bottom. She spotted the pack and started going on and on about how much she loved them and she was glad she didn't have to use the blue plastic ones in order to floss.They seem pretty durable. My daughter says that the floss will shred if it gets hooked on a bracket, but that's rare and would happen with any type of floss I think (she said maybe once a month that this happens). The hardened tip makes it easy for her to thread in between the brackets and seems to hold up for the entire flossing session (unless it shreds, then she gets another).The price is comparable to what we would pay at the grocery store locally if you just order one packet. I use the Subscribe & Save and it makes it to where they are slightly cheaper, plus I don't have to worry about running to the store if she runs out. Definitely recommend for anyone with orthodontic work. Read more

I have used Superfloss for years and loved it, but recently had some dental work done that made it difficult to use Superfloss, so I tried these. I was suprised that they came individually wrapped in paper pouches inside the box shown. It is kind of nice and compact to take a few with you, rather than the whole box. The floss appears thinner than Superfloss, and while the tips are a bit stiffer than the rest of the thread, they tend to have this annoying limp bit at the very tips that I sometimes have to cut off, because I find it gets in the way. Also, the stiff tips are not really as stiff as floss threader so for tight spaces it may not be stiff enough to enter crevices straight; I find it more often curls downward. If your spaces aren't too tight this might work for you, because the thread is thinner than (and flatter) than Superfloss or most floss threaders. Read more

I use this threader floss to floss it under my bridge and between the crowns, where it’s too tight and the regular floss can’t get it. It works perfectly. Easy to slide between your teeth and thin, so it doesn’t hurt your gum under the bridge. I also like that it individually wrap it. It doesn’t have any taste or smell. Read more

I can't believe I didn't know these existed. I've had a permanent retainer behind my front 8 lower teeth for 17 years and I've been using the awkward threaders with the big loop. I got so frustrated with those I gave up usually.My last dental check-up wasn't as good as it could have been. I got the usual flossing letter lecture but took it seriously this time. I found these and had to try them. They took a few seconds to get it threaded vs a battle that can take up to 5 mins with the loop threaders (I have a tremor so it makes it a little tricky).The floss works great. There's no taste which is fine with me. I'm glad I found these, they've made flossing not feel like a total chore Read more
