Recommend your threader floss

Anonymous
Oral-B used to make one w/ Glide, but it got discontinued and replaced by something far far worse.

If you have braces or a "bar" behind your teeth, what threader floss do you use to get under the gear?

Glide is so bad now. Brutal.

I started using GUM professional clean floss picks and it’s been working.

I use super floss- but just for the retainer. Otherwise I use regular floss.

My son uses the Platypus flossers with his braces.

We ran into this too. I found a Crest threader floss on ebay that is good. I've not seen it in stores.

GUM EEZ-Thru Floss Threaders and floss. Glide floss has gone to crap.

I use the Equate (Walmart store brand) glide floss and it works for me, but I do not have braces. Can your orthodontist suggest a floss?

Target's up and up brand floss was great, but I think they discontinued it. Amazon basics extra comfort is equivalent or even better.

^^my dc uses it with a floss threader loop, because all the threaded flosses we tried were too thick or frayed.

Regular floss. It is thin but strong. You need a separate floss threader loop. This is what works best for my dc. We tried pretty much every threader floss and this is what works. My dc is used to it now and gets the flossing done fairly quickly now.
