Platypus Orthodontic Flosser Bag, 30 Count

Excellent! As a person who currently wears standard metal braces, I honestly do not know how I would have coped without these Platypus flossers as these fit perfectly under your braces making it very quick and easy to floss throughout the day. I stumbled on these in the 2nd month of my orthodontic treatment and found these quickly became a vital part of my daily teeth cleaning routine. I mentioned these flossers to my orthodontist and she’d never heard of them which shocked me! Downside, unfortunately these are extremely pricey, ridiculously so in fact for flossers however, I still have to repeatedly purchase them as I’ve never seen these flossers anywhere else. These along with an electric Waterpik flosser and interdental brushes are a game changer for anyone wearing the original style metal fitted braces.

Great alternative for the traditional floss specifically if you are in rush

I couldn’t find any other flossers that actually did the job for braces, these are great for that. Would recommend, they’re essential for a good braces hygiene routine.

Robust enough to be effective for those hard to reach gaps

These flossers have been a game-changer since I got braces. They make it so much quicker and easier to floss without the hassle of threading around every bracket. The design fits well around wires and helps me stay consistent with my oral hygiene. That said, they are a bit pricey for something that’s disposable, and the floss can occasionally shred if it catches on a bracket. Still, the convenience and time saved make them worth it — I just wish they were a little more affordable. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the floss can sometimes shred a little if it catches on a bracket, but overall, the convenience far outweighs that minor issue. Overall, a great product for anyone with braces

Able to floss teeth with braces

the kid just got her braces and these were recommended by her friends. Works wll and are real time saver.

Ultimately they are overpriced, not because they're great quality but because they can be, they're almost the only available flossers for braces. Fitting behind the bracket: this will depend on your tooth/bracket placement, type of brackets you wear (standard metal/self ligating/ceramic), wire thickness as all these factors will alter the distance between the teeth and wire. For example, I found some of my more rotated teeth, where the bracket was closer to the interdental space, the flossers could not fit behind the wire. However this is not a fault of the product, it works fine for all of my other teeth - just something to consider. Ultimately the reason I am not a fan of this product (although I see it has potential) is due to the fact that it has limited movement when behind the wire - I don't think it gets well enough under the gum line although it does get between the teeth. I would suggest Oral-B SuperFloss that is more flexible, or a water pick.

Ik heb sindskort een beugel en deze tandenstokers zijn echt een uitvinding. Het vergt wel enige gewenning maar je leert snel hoe je het kan gebruiken. De prijs is wel wat aan de dure kant maar er zijn weinig alternatieven.

This has been a useful addition to my daily routine. It is convenient to use and makes it easier to stay consistent. I am glad I decided to try it.

het is best een gedoe om het tussen de tanden te krijgen en bij heleboel tanden lukt dit zelfs niet door de hoek. Ook is de flosdraad best zwak en gaat het snel kapot - is dus veel geld voor die paar tanden waar het wel lukt...

Fantastic product. I wish I’d found these when I first got my braces over 12 months ago. The part where the floss strand is, has a thinner pointed bit that allows it to slip up under the braces wire, allowing the floss to actually go up between the teeth. Normal ones just hit the wire and do not go any further. Finally, I can do a proper flossing!!
