GumChucks Floss for Teeth - Flossing for Kids and Adults - Orthodontic Flossers for Braces - Dental Gum

These have been great for both me and my daughter! I don't know how well they would work with braces or orthodontic appliances, but I can tell you how they worked for us since neither of us have braces. The most important thing I want to express here is how much these helped my disabled child. She is autistic and struggles with tasks that require a high level of manual dexterity (buttoning buttons, grasping small objects etc.), so being able to effectively manipulate a small, thin piece of floss was not only next-to impossible, but very frustrating for her as well. Dental picks were an improvement, but the fixed nature of the floss makes it hard to get the floss curved in the "C" shape that the dentist recommends. The Gum Chucks fix all of that! The simple sticks act as a handle for you to place the floss more precisely without something akin to threading a needle! You can easily wrap the floss in a "C" shape, covering more area in less time! My kiddos teeth can get flossed before she gets frustrated and gives up and she feels accomplished! They are also hygienic as well. When you have finished flossing you simply press the button at the end of the stick and toss it! As for myself, I really appreciate not having to put my fingers in my mouth--definitely cleaner and not messy at all. This product has a number of applications: Anyone with dexterity issues, those recovering from surgery on hands or fingers, neurological disorders such as tremors or Parkinson's, people with severe vision issues or anyone just wanting to find a way to maintain their oral health in an easier and effective way! I highly recommend this product to anyone, but I think it will be most appreciated to those with a physical hindrance who struggle with flossing. Best flossers yet! Read more

These GumChucks Orthodontic Flossers are a total game-changer. My son’s dentist recommended them, and I’m honestly amazed at the difference they’ve made. Flossing used to be a battle—complaints, resistance, the whole nine yards. Now? He actually looks forward to it. The design is brilliant. It’s like giving kids a cool tool instead of a boring chore. The handles make it easy for him to reach between brackets and wires without fumbling or hurting his gums. It’s precise, comfortable, and way more effective than traditional floss for orthodontic care. And the best part? He’s consistent. No more skipping days or pretending he forgot. These flossers turned a dreaded routine into something he’s proud of. His hygiene has improved, and I can already see the results. If your child has braces and struggles with flossing, don’t wait—get these. They’re worth every penny and might just be the thing that turns oral care into a win. Read more

I’ve been using Gum Chucks for YEARS and I will continue to as long as they exist! No more wasting yards of floss and wrapping it around your fingers just to get a good grip!! Gum Chucks make flossing so much easier because, you have complete control of the little piece of floss with the help of the chucks! I don’t even have to look in a mirror when I floss! My son was told at his last check-up that he needed to floss better so I got him a pair of Gum Chucks and now he’s flossing every day just because, this tedious but, very necessary task is so much easier for him to do. I’ve had my Gum Chucks for probably 10+ years and I just replace the floss piece which lasts me months with just rinsing it off after each use. To replace the floss you simply push on the bottom of the gum chuck (grey tip) and it pops off. Read more

I really like gum chucks but the new design of the tips were mistake if you ask me. The original tip design were great and I had no complaints, but with the seam on the new design of the floss tips splits and make the new design completely useless. I've had it happen with almost every single one I've used. I wish they would offer both tip styles Read more

Best flossing method for me. Read more

Super solid and easy for son to put together and use. The down fall occurs when taking these apart. I have to use tweezers to leverage the floss attachment out of the base. It usually takes a good 1 to 2 minutes before they pop off. Read more
