GUM Soft-Picks Advanced - Easy-to-Use Interdental Picks for Plaque Removal & Gum Health with Carry Case, Dentist Recommended, 90 Count (Pack of 3) 270 Total

I'm not particularly fond of flossing. Some teeth are so close together that the floss sometimes gets stuck between them and breaks. Getting to back teeth is nearly impossible and a wire glued behind four of my front teeth; that's intended as a retainer after braces; makes those teeth especially complicated to floss. I didn't floss much in my youth and it's resulted in thousands of dollars in dental and periodontist care including a few surgeries to try to hold onto my natural teeth as gums receded. So far I've managed to hold onto all but one tooth, but it's been a struggle. I knew I needed to floss in the past few years, and really tried, but it's hard and just didn't happen 100% of the time. I've driven 40 miles to the periodontist every three months for professional teeth cleaning for the past three years. These picks make "flossing" so fast and easy! I stick them between teeth at the gum line and work them back and forth until they squeak. They have a slight minty taste, and it's easy to reach between even the back teeth with them. I used them at least once a day from one professional teeth cleaning to the next. The dental assistant called the periodontist in for my appointment with him before cleaning my teeth as she was so impressed with how clean my teeth were this time that she wanted to show him before doing the cleaning, which took half as long as usual. Instead of three months next time, I can return in four and that may get even longer with continued use. At the dentist's office, to which I hadn't been for a couple of years (lots of periodontist instead) the assistant said to the dentist "This is the patient with the excellent dental hygiene." As I said, I've tried, but certainly never heard that before. They did the test which sent me to the periodontist in the first place, where they measure gum recession around each tooth. It was previously full of 5's to 7's for me; which isn't good. This time all but one were three or less; up to three being "no problem". The gums are actually growing back. You get a lot of these picks for the money, so it's no problem to use once and throw away. Once the tip gets bent it's harder to use in the back, so once in awhile I use two for one cleaning. The case that comes with each individual pack (there were three packs in the shipment) holds six picks and is small and easy to carry in a purse so you can use them after eating away from home. I'm so impressed with these for ease of use and effective cleaning I've given a six-pack case to several friends and; having first seen them in a store; bought my second package on Amazon so I could write a review. As a boomer, friends tend to have few-to-no natural teeth left and wish they'd taken better care of their real teeth. If flossing is so time consuming and onerous a job that you often skip it, give these a try. You'll be glad you did when you get to my age (or are my age) and can still eat nuts and other foods that are difficult-to-impossible to chew without teeth or with dentures.

love these.They are a must if you have a mouth full of dental repairs .They slide under bridges and in- between crowns and implants .

These gum soft-picks are great. I put a small amount of toothpaste on the pick and clean in between every tooth. They are much better than ones I purchased in a grocery store. These are strong and don’t fall apart as you’re using them. Plus, the price is great too. I highly recommend this product.

They work ok, but they're too flimsy for my taste. It took me forever to use them up. Since i bought a bunch.

Wow, these are absolutely incredible. I’ve always used The Dental floss picks, And smaller versions of these pics, but these pics are bigger and longer, and stronger, nice size with a rubber area to hold onto. They are very strong, and the tips do not bend, you can rinse them and use them a few times.

I hate to floss, it cuts off circulation and my teeth are tightly packed. So I rarely do it. When my hygienist suggested I add these to my routine, they were a game changer. Quickly my gum health improved. They are like a little toothbrush for in between teeth! I angle them this way and that to get good coverage around teeth. Sometimes I even go from the tongue side! I dip the fresh pick into toothpaste to get a better clean. Hygienist no longer complains about my gums. I also added a water pic.

They work well between your teeth and are gentle. They also last longer than generic pics.

So easy to use but not for tight teeth

Muy Prácticos y de buena calidad
