Dental floss is a thin thread used to remove plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gumline.
It helps prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and bad breath when used daily alongside brushing.
Use gently in a “C” shape around each tooth, avoiding snapping to protect your gums.

Feature	Description
Material	Commonly nylon (monofilament or multifilament) or PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene); some biodegradable options use silk or plant-based fibers
Type	Waxed (easier glide, less shredding) or unwaxed (thinner, may squeak between teeth); flavored or unflavored
Form & Packaging	Spool in a small container (typically 25–50 meters); individual pre-cut picks or flossers; refillable holders available
Thickness	Varies from thin (for tight contacts) to thicker (for wider gaps or around braces/dental work); often labeled “slender,” “regular,” or “thick”
Flavors/Additives	Mint, cinnamon, or other mild flavors; some include fluoride, xylitol, or antimicrobial coatings
Primary Uses	Removes plaque and food debris between teeth and below gumline where toothbrush can’t reach; helps prevent gum disease and cavities
Technique	Gently curve floss into a “C” shape around each tooth, sliding below the gumline without snapping; use a clean segment for each gap
Frequency	Ideally once daily, usually before bedtime; can be adjusted per dental professional’s advice
Precautions	Use gently to avoid injuring gums; if bleeding persists beyond initial use, consult a dentist; avoid flossing around very loose teeth without guidance
Special Considerations	For braces or bridges, use threaders or specialized floss; interdental brushes or water flossers may be adjuncts; sensitive gums may benefit from gentler types
Storage	Keep in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; ensure container is closed to maintain hygiene
Environmental Note	Biodegradable floss alternatives exist; floss picks are convenient but generate more plastic waste—consider reusable holders with refill spools
Replacement	Replace spool when floss runs out; replace picks or disposable holders as directed; inspect for fraying and switch to a fresh segment when needed
Benefits	Reduces risk of gingivitis, periodontitis, and interproximal caries; contributes to fresher breath and overall oral health
When to Consult	If flossing causes severe pain, persistent bleeding, or if there are changes in gum health, seek professional advice
