GUM Advanced Care Flossers, Fresh Mint, Vitamin E & Fluoride, 90 Count

These are great, comfortable to use! I like that they have fluoride too.

Great floss picks! The floss is thin enough to comfortably maneuver through my teeth without much force, but it is strong and doesn't break during use. They are comfortable to use and hold, and the pick at the end works well. Flossing is more enjoyable with these, and the value is decent!

These are my favorite flossers. I’ve used these, a house brand from Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada, and Kroger’s house brand. I was satisfied with the SDM ones, but absolutely HATED the Kroger ones. Kroger’s was sharp (the floss itself!), oddly flat to the point it almost squeaked, too taut. These? Fantastic. The floss barely shreds even on my narrowest spots. The floss doesn’t cut my gums, I only have bleeding if I skipped a day - very rare, I’ve missed 5 days in 5 years! But that tells you that you gotta stay on top of it. The texture isn’t squeaky, but isn’t grainy or sandy. There’s just the right amount of tautness, so you don’t have to press too hard to wrap the tooth AND you can press enough to slide it between, if it’s too taut, you can’t do either easily. The floss doesn’t feel either too thick or too thin, I suspect the sharpness I experienced with the Kroger flossers was the floss being too thin. I’ve had a single GUM flosser snap before I was done flossing in the 5+ years I’ve been using them. With daily use that’s an extremely low failure rate, so clearly the quality control on this brand is very high. The pointed bit is, as others have noted, pliable, but it’s not weak or brittle. For me, I like that it has some give. I nearly never need it, it only has any use for me when I have my maybe once a year popcorn run in, before I give it up for another year or so because I can’t stand the little shell bits getting stuck up in my gums. So for me the flexibility is nice, as I’m very careful with my costly crowns and don’t feel like it being stiff would help get at what I’m needing to get at. If I really can’t get something out I’ll go see my dentist. I had bought the ones from Kroger thinking I was about to save some money, but it actually ends up more per flosser once I realized the Kroger bag was $3 for 90, not the current $4.39 for 150 that these are. So this is an amazing value, not just per flosser but also for how high quality they are. I will continue to buy this brand from now on, unless they were dumb and started producing poor quality flossers. GUM, you’ve got a great product!

After using these a few times I knew I was never going to switch back to long string flossing. Ok, it's a luxury but it has definitely made flossing easier. While they take up more space than the long string, they're just so convenient and of course only require one hand to floss me. I've never had a string break. I'm sold.
