Texture and Strength

Pros:

  • "The Listerine version here has microtechnology they actually gets the plaque off and it doesn't shred when you're flossing."
  • "Doesn’t break, great mint flavor and cleans better than most other flosses out there."
  • "This floss is unbreakable and very stretchy."
  • "It’s elastic and stretches. It doesn’t get caught, snagged, or fray."
  • "Pro it is very durable and did not shred."
  • "Easy to use and very strong."
  • "This floss stretches, does not break."

Cons:

  • "The only drawback, if there is one, is its stretchiness. It's not really a drawback, performance-wise. The only reason the stretch is an issue at all, is the way it squeezes the fingers."
  • "It kept breaking between my teeth."
  • "Trying to use it it stretched and snapped back on my lip."
  • "It has a springy texture. When you use it to floss, it just springs the thing that was in between your teeth everywhere."
  • "This floss is an elastic band which will flick gum debris/germs everywhere (mirror, face, etc)."
  • "Does not pick up scraps like woven floss. Sometimes breaks."
  • "Too stretchy, too thin and hard to use."

Ease of Use

Pros:

  • "It stretches which helps to make the process easier, its also quite resistant to tight teeth."
  • "It’s flat, thin, and easily glides between teeth even better than 'glide' brand."
  • "This floss is kind of stretchy, which helps it get between tight gaps from crowded teeth very easily."
  • "The floss has a slight elasticity to it so you want to hold it tight to scrape off the layers of plaque."
  • "I can pull it tight to get into tight spaces or leave it loose for larger spaces."
  • "With the stretchy material I find I don't have to use as much nor wrap it around my fingers as many times."
  • "It sort of stretches a little and stays in place around your fingers without slipping."

Cons:

  • "When I pulled on the floss to dispense a piece, it was stuck and would not come out."
  • "Had to even get my husband to pry open the feeder so I could feed the floss."
  • "This floss seems to be plastic-ish. I don't need any more plastic in my life."
  • "After using this twice, my teeth became very sensitive to hot and cold, and I became sensitive to metallic items such as spoons or anything in a metal container."
  • "It was gummy and sticky and just terrible."
  • "The floss I received is a sticky, waxy mess that will not dispense properly because the floss has sort of clotted into a mass that won’t unravel."
  • "Continually breaking before I would cut it."

Availability

Pros:

  • "I can’t find it in stores anymore, so glad I could get it through Amazon."
  • "Glad I am able to get on Amazon."
  • "This is the only floss I want to use. For some reason, this floss is hard to find in stores."
  • "I haven't been able to find it in stores near me for the last six months to a year."
  • "So I found it on Amazon, and I now buy it exclusively on Amazon."
  • "Hard to find in my local stores. This is the best floss I've found so far."
  • "This is my favorite floss, it is so hard to find in the stores so I am glad that I can get it on Amazon."

Cons:

  • "I was hoping this would be a good replacement for Listerine Gentle Gum Care woven floss, which was suddenly discontinued. But no."
  • "It seems to be getting harder to find and I hope they don’t stop making it."
  • "The only problem is you can not find this floss in the stores anymore. Target and Publix use to carry it."
  • "Why does this company no longer sell the woven floss ?(which is currently being sold online if you can it at a much higher price)."
  • "Our local stores don't seem to carry this floss any longer, so we were thrilled to find it at Amazon."
  • "Taste good but hard to find in the stores--Amazon to the rescue."
  • "I got it from the grocery store years ago she never saw again until my dental hygienist recommended buying it in Amazon."
