FLON Natural Silk Dental Floss ~ Eco Friendly Biodegradable Plastic Free Natural Floss ~ Peace Silk ~Candelilla Waxed Mint Flavoured (Floss Refills - 30m X 2)

Reminds me of the 'HAPPIER' DENTAL FLOSS. Does not break easily and removes plaque or dirt between teeth efficiently with perfect flossing technique.

I have used this for a couple of years and my gums hate it when I run out - this floss is far superior at removing caught up bits of food than the traditional plastic floss. It is less smooth so it catches more. It will sometimes break when flossing, being a natural material, but it's well worth it. My gums love it and even my dentist wanted to know what I am using to get such good results.

Without doubt the best dental floss I’ve ever used I never thought about it previously when using plastic based floss - but such plastics are obviously bad for the body and the environment. This silk floss however is PLASTIC FREE - and produced ethically without harming the silkworms. Made of Organic Ahimsa (Peace) Silk - a totally Natural Dental Silk thread Eco friendly,Biodegradable and Compostable. This is a sustainable Zero Waste, Natural Way to Clean your teeth. I’m delighted with it, it’s far stronger than I was led to believe from other reviews and quite honestly the slight roughness to the thread means it’s far more effective at removing plaque etc. my teeth feel amazing! I will never go back to plastic floss or buy silk that is not Ahimsa (a method that is friendly to the silk worms ….. you need to know this as silk products that are not Ahimsa are not friendly toward silk worms (non-ahimsa methods involve boiling the silk worms which is of course disgusting…. Whereas this ahimsa silk allows the silk worms to flourish and live a happy life).

I decided to try eco floss to reduce my personal plastic 'footprint'. I've been using FLON for over a year now. It's good but just a little more breakable than standard (non-eco) floss and not as 'silky' as I would like. Having said that, there is always one area of my mouth where it breaks, due to a tight squeeze and a sharpish tooth, so that may not be an issue for others. I'd prefer a little more pepermint taste, there's very little, if any. For perfection, an indication of where to cut it for the ideal length would be useful. I often feel I've been excessive but it's quite difficult to judge, so I err on too much which is not ideal for my waste reduction aspirations! I've decided to have a whirl with the EcoYou Bamboo Charcoal Dental Floss. I don't really like the idea of black floss but if it's less breakable that would be preferable. So those are the pros and cons from my perspective. In spite of the quibbles, I would still recommend it. You really just need to try it for yourself...

Far too thick, gets stuck in gaps, then starts to unthread and tear apart in little pieces.

Unlike other well-known and more expensive makes of fluoride free dental floss this does not snap off between your teeth and if like me you have teeth that are close together finding a floss that doesn't break can turn into an online quest. As this dental floss is made out of silk it slides between the teeth with comfort and has a nice taste to it too. The silk is harvested humanely and to me seems the best medium for the job.

Purchased 8 times and last 2 refills have been of poor quality. I’m now looking for an alternative.

I love the fact that this dental floss is ethically produced, biodegradable and made from natural materials. I also love that no plastic is used in the packaging or container. I find that is doesn't shred easily for a natural silk floss. Flon gets top marks on all of these counts. However, the very big drawback for me personally is that the floss is simply too thick, too uncomfortable and too damaging to my gums to make it fit for purpose. If you are someone who has very little space between your teeth, who has crowded teeth, or tighter teeth spacing then you may experience the same problems as I did. That is, when attempting to fit the floss between the teeth, I have to use such force to get it to pass between the teeth that it hits the gum line with hard pressure and impact, causing pain, discomfort and often feeling as though it is slicing into the gums. It is sad that I love all of the qualities of this floss on paper but that I dread using it so much and definitely would not purchase it again. If it were just a fraction thinner/finer then I am sure it would do the job perfectly but at the thickness it currently is, I would not advise it for anyone with little space between the teeth. Sorry Flon!

Ne fonctionne pas mieux que les autres fils dentaires. N'est pas vraiment solide. Trop cher. Bref, je ne recommande pas.

Marche aussi bien (voire mieux) qu'un fil dentaire classique, mais prend moins de place et est beaucoup plus joli sur votre lavabo, dans son petit flacon de verre. Ceci est la recharge.

Filo in perfette condizioni

Ottimo!

Ottimo filo, ha una buona resistenza allo sfregamento non si rompe neanche utilizzandolo più volte.
