2.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable, but..., April 2, 2008

By	Colin Mattson (Phoenix, AZ USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Crest bills their Deep Clean Cool Mint Floss as being more comfortable than other floss and providing a "cooling blast of clean feeling." On these counts, I can agree. Glide Deep Clean is wonderfully smooth and comfortable, making flossing downright pleasant on both your gums and your fingers. The width of the floss prevents the tourniquet effect of thinner flosses. And there is a pleasant cool, minty feeling left behind wherever you've cleaned.

But... It's the single most expensive floss I can find in any of my local stores, and even on Amazon. And Crest's claims of being "shred resistant" fall short. My Glide Deep Clean was shredded right out of the package, and shreds further every time you tear off a new piece. To be fair, I haven't yet had it shred in the course of flossing, but the fact you can't even cleanly cut a strip off without shredding doesn't inspire confidence. At the price premium Crest is demanding, I'd expect Glide Deep Clean to cut well and in one piece.

1.0 out of 5 stars Breaks easily, tastes like saccharin, June 5, 2007

By	LS (Victoria, Canada) - See all my reviews

The new version of Glide floss is not what it used to be. The taste is unctuously sweet and it now breaks more easily. Why does Crest insist on messing with success? Its toothpastes, like this new version of floss, are sickeningly sweet. Is Glide still made using the original Goretex material? It doesn't seem so -- now it's just expensive floss tape ruined by marketing overkill.

4.0 out of 5 stars EDIT: Not recommended by hygenist, March 25, 2007

By	Cedric "Washu" (Palo Alto, CA) - See all my reviews

All floss is pretty much the same. Insert the floss between your teeth, use up and down strokes against each side of the tooth, and floss each and every day. Hmm. Each and every day? Until I had a near-root canal at the dentist, I was lax in my flossing for a simple reason: the tips of my fingers hurt and were turning purple from the floss tourniquet around my fingers. I haven't tried the other Glide flosses, but Glide Deep Clean doesn't cause this discomfort, so I'm using it daily. Even though it's one of the more expensive flosses at the store, it's certainly cheaper than a second trip to the dentist.

EDIT: My dental hygenist recommends Reach over Glide. Reducing my rating to two stars.
