Oral-B Glide Pro-Health Dental Floss, Original Floss, 50m, Pack of 6

Product Information

However, we think this is a great solution to keeping your gums healthy without any risk of irritation.

Dry skin on your hands can take on many forms, from a feeling of dehydrated tightness to eczema, flaking, or itching. Our dental floss undergoes thorough safety testing and we stand behind the safety of all our products. In other words, you can avoid PFAS by avoiding Oral-B Glide floss, or any floss that's marketed for its "glide ability". Lau says: “Floss is often flavored or waxed or both, [and] over time the wax can get old, and the scent and the flavor can go away, but the floss is not really harmful [or unsafe to use].The floss itself is made of 200-plus fibers designed not to shred or break, and it felt thin enough that it slid in perfectly between our tight teeth. Hand soaps for dry skin can be liquids or solid bars, and will thoroughly cleanse while moisturising deeply, leaving them supple and soft. It glides through your gums easily while still cleaning out any debris and tartar between your teeth. At the same time, the American Dental Association (ADA) questioned the results of that study, pushing back on the idea that PFAs in dental floss could be harmful. The NHS recommended daily flossing to keep plaque and tartar at bay to retain a healthy mouth and gums.

This debris, she says, creates colonies of harmful bacteria that can cause cavities, inflammation, and/or gum infections. The truth is, we all have PFAS in our bodies—from lots of different sources—and it's smarter to focus on avoiding future exposure rather than worry about what's already happened. If possible, textured, thicker floss with a wax coating will be better at removing plaque before it hardens and becomes tartar. We considered whether the flavor is overpowering or subtle, whether it is minty or offers a different taste, and whether or not it leaves an unsavory aftertaste.

Be sure to get into all the tight spaces between your teeth and along your gumline for the best results. The floss is double-threaded, shred-resistant and coated with natural xylitol and mint to give it a lovely fresh taste.

The curved pick allows you to access all areas of your mouth without using too much pressure whilst stimulating the gums to keep them healthy and help prevent gum disease.This dental floss has a little more wax than other dental flosses, so it’ll glide a little easier between teeth. While these aren't as widely available, they cause less irritation and are better suited to those with sensitive teeth.
