Love the product, have been using it for years & have excellent dental check-ups
I have used this floss for years but as with many things, it recently hasn't been available in local natural foods stores, so here I am ordering yet another item online. But that's another topic I suppose. On to the review - I like how effective this product is (so good!), but I choose this brand specifically because they don't use plastic. The floss is comfortable on my gums, cleans very well, the mint is not overwhelming or fake tasting/smelling, which I really appreciate. Something important to keep in mind when using this product - In order to keep the box in good condition (which makes it easy to use for the very long time that it lasts) the finger that pushes on the floss to keep it in place while the other hand pulls to cut it should NOT push with downward pressure. Just set the finger down to keep the floss in place while the other hand pulls to cut the length you chose on the small metal piece. If you use force the box will crumple & eventually tear, which makes it difficult to use. My husband suddenly can't use these anymore because he can no longer wrap his head around this idea (lol!) and continues to push down which crushes it & is unusable. I ended up taking his floss out and put it in my empty box to replace the one I used up. It's not hard to be gentle though, and you'll enjoy a good product that is environmentally friendly.
