GUM Soft-Picks Original Dental Picks 100 Count, BPA-Free Phthalate-Free

These are flexible enough not to cause damage, but firm enough to clean. In very tight spaces betwen teeth they may not go through, but waxed floss can work in these cases. At its most basic an advanced toothpick. At its more advanced use a well-designed and well-made extra tool for clean teeth. Don't fret if you bend a few while you get used to using them. I can not give an expert dental opinion but I personally use them as an adjunct to floss (not all the time together and sometimes apart from each other ) and feel good using them. Despite some negative publcity about flossing (and I would assume also these type of picks) ,my experienced dentist and dental hygienst strongly advise thorough cleaning with such tools along with careful and regular tooth brushing.

I use these all the time. Quality is good

Love these. My dentist insists I keep using them since I do not floss as much as I should. These are great and make your mouth feel so clean afterwards. Does its job of removing stuck-in food from my teeth. Would buy again.

Good flossing method for teeth to get at gums. Works beautifully with my lower brace bracket that does not allow me to floss. Do not buy imitation. Make sure it is GUM

I can't live without these soft picks. The ones with wires poke my gums and rust. These are the perfect answer to those of us who have wide spaces. They get the little stuff that even floss does not touch. Luv them but I wish they were in stores so I could buy as needed instead of having to internet shop. Oh well.

Wow, I hate flossing. My teeth are tight, but plenty of room at the gum line for food to catch so flossing was important but difficult. These things are great, they get into those gum line spaces without having to force floss between the teeth. Massage my gums also. Actually kind of addicting.

Works well bnut works better when 2 are still attached single use just okay

they are hard to break apart . if you have stron fingers, you will have no problem

No matter how well I brush and floss, the soft pick quite often finds that remaining food particle. I have numerous caps and bridges, so this is very important. If I'm careful I'm able to wash the pick after using it, and use it many more times. I took off one star because if I'm not careful it bends too easily at the neck, just below the green pick area.

These are very good. I've used these for years. My only concern is they don't hold up as well as some others I have tried. I always come back to these because they are so easy to manipulate in my mouth. The space between my teeth is very narrow and I have a small mouth.
