Product Description

Product Description

Cleans where your brush can't reach. Shred-resistant. Brushing alone can't get to all the hard-to-reach places where plaque builds up. But Oral-B EssentialFloss can. With its light wax coating and its shred-resistant texture, it slides easily between your teeth and below the gumline. It helps clean the tough-to-get plaque away. Used morning or evening when you brush, EssentialFloss helps your gums and your teeth stay healthy.

i wish amazon sold a pack smaller than 24. that's a lot of floss...

pros:
nice and minty. thinner than the colgate brand i switched from. it's easier to get in between my tightly-packed teeth.

cons:
it shreds easily.

overall, i'm quite satisfied.

My mouth is crowded, and I have multiple crowns.
ALL other floss I have tried either does not fit in between my teeth, or quickly shreds in the attempt. This includes: Oral B Ultra, the entire Reach line and all others.

Essentials floss is simply the ONLY floss that works for the tight spaces in between my teeth. I am thrilled to see the 24 pack offered.
I hope they keep this product on the market, because I don't have any other options.
I have tried them all, and only Essentials works.

This is the only floss I will buy. My teeth are very tightly crowded. I've used other brands that would get stuck once in between the teeth - making me feel like I'd pull a tooth out removing it. Some brands were so thick, I felt I was trying to shove a thick wedge between my teeth, and never managed to slide them in. Tape types were beyond hopeless in my mouth since the tape twists. The winner for me is Oral B Essentials. Very smooth - perfectly thin. Gets between the teeth with no trouble at all. Quick to do the whole mouth. Never cuts my gums. The floss can shred a little bit, but no worse than any other I've tried, I won't bother deducting points for that. Besides all that, it ends up being cheaper than any of the other flosses I was buying - and has just many feet or meters of floss within. What's not to like? I hope they make it forever.
