I just got the flosser (see below) It was recommended to me by my dentist b/c I have permanent retainer glued behind my lower teeth. It is so easy to use, rather than trying to use a threader to weave through my retainer, only to have the floss shred there and bug me all day. Unfortunately, rather than deal with these problems, I often opted not to floss as often as I should.

It is super easy to use -- the "floss" is stiff enough to easily fit between the teeth, but doesn't poke or hurt at all. This is a great product!! Thumb's up

This is an excellent dental care product that cleans your teeth and gums really well *near* the gum line areas. However, it is hardly a "replacement" for floss, since -- unless you have very large gaps between your teeth -- it cannot possibly clean between the upper inter-dental portions of your teeth as floss can.

The good: it's extremely easy to use even if you have a permanent retainer or braces installed, has an impressive battery life, and is far faster than flossing. At under $10 for 30 disposable tips, the tips may seem expensive at first. But it's far cheaper than going to a dentist or orthodontist later when you're having problems because you were too lazy to use regular floss.
The bad: the size & angle of the device may make it difficult or impossible for you to reach the rear teeth. Depending on whether you've had your wisdom teeth removed or not, expect for 1 or 2 teeth to be unreachable & require regular floss.

I really like this thing! It cleans between your teeth at the gum line. It doesn't slide between your teeth like floss; it pokes in through the side and wiggles around like a drain snake.
It is a gentle but invigorating experience. Change tip every time.

I like this product and use it regularly--but some things are annoying. It is hard to get to my back teeth because the flossing tips are too short and so is the place where they attach to the flosser. The flossing tips have a little bulb at the end that is sometimes hard to get in between tight teeth. There is no charging or charged indicator on the device. The flossing tips are provided in a loose case that doesn't attach to the base in any way.

That said, I do use this every day and that's better than I've done with regular floss or other products--so it's an improvement for me.

This product is excellent. Within a week of use it has eliminated puffiness and redness of gumline between the teeth. Teeth are very noticeably whiter. it's easy to use.

I really like using this product rather than floss because it cuts the hassle! It's also much more hygenic in my opinion, if you are not near a sink. I like to use it in the car on the way to work! It takes a minute to get used to your teeth vibrating though!

I have owned this product for almost one year. It continues to work flawlessly. One of the main reasons I bought it was to do a better job of flossing under my bridges. It may not be perfect, but it does a great job. It is so much easier. I would highly recommend this item.

I have use it for 2 weeks and find it no where as good as floss. The only place it works is between the teeth at the gum line and that is not very well. The tip that you us is some what flimsy and tends to bend. All it dose is vibrate and dose not rotate. If you have no spacing you can forget it, forcing the tip in causes it to bend.

I purchased this item for my kids-in-braces, to make flossing easier for them. It has done that.

The shock came when I went shopping for the replacement filaments (they come loaded in a heavy plastic rack, reminiscent of a magazine for a gun). For a pack of 30, the price (retail, not on Amazon) was $5.99!
