5.0 out of 5 stars Seems to be highly effective!, September 24, 2006

Dance Day and Night (Montreal, Quebec Canada) - See all my reviews

About a year ago, my dentist expressed concern over the condition of my gums, which he said were edging close to periodontal (gum) disease. They bled with every flossing. Flossing was difficult, since my spaces between my teeth are very tight, leading to some interdental spaces being skipped, or to the sudden jerking of the floss down to the gum, as I managed to squeeze it between the teeth, thus injuring the gums.

I bought this little device and began using it once daily (this is what dental hiegienest recommended). I also would apply drops of tea tree oil (a natural bacteriocide) to the floss every few teeth.

By the next checkup (6 months later), gum bleeding had been virtually eliminated and my dentist pronounced my gums to be quite healthy. Flossing is now easy, as this little gadget never tires in moving the floss rapidly to and fro to get it between the tightest of teeth. Flossing is now easy, faster, more thorough, and I never miss any interdental gaps. No more gum injury, as this flosser is easy to control.

This little device is affordable, works well, and appears to be quite durable, for something made of plastic. I have gone through hundreds of the little disposable floss holders and it continues to hold the floss holders just as securely as when it was new. The little plastic floss holders (which are meant to be thrown away after each use) are very easy to attach and remove from the flosser. The flosser has a soft rubber grip and is easy to hold to reach all the way back to the molars. It is well designed. The waterproof battery case (one AA battery) is easy to open for battery replacement. Works fine with rechargeable batteries. I've found that the disposeable floss holders can certainly be used twice before disposal. They disposable floss holders are a bit pricey, but well worth it, as gum surgery is expensive and best avoided. This little gadget certainly helps.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best flosser I ever used, January 26, 2008

I love this flosser. Mine broke and the stores stopped selling it I don't know why. Nothing out there compares because you can get the whole tooth from top to bottom. Most power flossers are nothing more than vibrating toothpicks.

5.0 out of 5 stars The GREATEST Invention Since The Microwave!, August 2, 2008

I absolutely LOVE this product! It is the most convenient method of flossing that I have ever experienced.

This tool enables you more control over flossing in the hard-to-reach areas. I also like the battery-operated vibrating sensation that it provides as you floss between the gum and teeth. It makes your mouth feel so much cleaner afterward, so you look forward to flossing two and three times a day.

I would suggest that when ordering this product that you also purchase the refill heads in advance. I go through one head per flossing, and I floss twice a day, so I like to keep refills on hand to ensure that I don't run out.

I'm going to be buying one of these for each of my nieces and nephews to encourage them to maintain proper dental hygiene, as this device makes it much easier to do this as opposed to the standard roll of messy floss string.
