Suitable for younger children with braces

I have a 10 year old who got braces when he was 9 years old. He loves this platypus floss! He doesn't have the dexterity to floss any other like Oral B Superfloss, but he's too old for me to floss on him. This is the perfect compromise. I can't find them in stores so I compared prices to Revain and other online competitors. Revain was the best deal.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Modern

Recommended by orthodontist

When you pay for braces and leg braces, you usually listen to the orthodontist's recommendations. My son has no problem brushing his teeth with this dental floss.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Don't waste your money

I don't know if we had a defective package, I would really like it to actually work. The design really goes beyond braces, which is what they were designed for. However, when I used them on my son, they started hacking him and hurting him more than anything, so it's hard for me. I will not buy again

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Expensive

Mandatory if you have braces

My orthodontist suggested this type of floss because regular floss is too big to go through the wire and she was right. This floss saves me a lot of time. I used to have to catch dental floss through wires, which was annoying.

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • I don't remember

Um, I think I'll try something different

Oh phew, I can't fit this between some of my clamps. So disappointing, I had such high expectations. Nothing compares to the frustration of eating in your mouth and not being able to use a tool designed to help you.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Nothing

Suitable for Braces: Oral Care

My son's orthodontist recommended them when he got braces and my son says they are easy to use and should help him keep the spaces between his teeth clean while the braces are on becomes. for the next few years. They arrived quickly and my son enjoys using them so it's a win-win for me.

Pros
  • Durable Test Results
Cons
  • Ragged

Recommended!: Oral care

They look great. Not for those who just got braces and teeth are still stuck and not moving, but once you get used to them and can't get the floss under the arches, they're great. Buy it, you won't regret it. A bit pricey yes, but worth it so you don't have to floss. Especially if you have small children. I can't wait to take them off and go back to simpler flossing!

Pros
  • dental floss and dental floss
Cons
  • I don't remember, but there was something

It didn't work for me and my daughter.

They are not suitable for my family. We have several people in the family who have braces and no one can use them. They have been highly recommended by other people I know who have braces. They will not fit behind our brackets and wires. I have old metal clasps. Like the flat part of the pick is too thick to fit behind my wires. We will continue to use them as regular floss for those of us who don't have braces in the family.

Pros
  • Dental floss
Cons
  • High price

Probably the best dental floss for people with braces

Definitely much more expensive than regular floss but easy to clean with braces. By the time I've done all the teeth, the string has worn out a bit completely. I try to start with the front teeth to ensure the best floss integrity as those teeth are most visible when I smile, but when I get to the back teeth the floss hangs and looks like it's about to floss break. Does the job and if you use 1 per day when you get a pack of 40 it means it's a 40 day supply. The time saving compared to normal…

Pros
  • oral care
Cons
  • boring packaging
