Plackers Gentle Line Floss Picks, Fresh Mint, 75 Count

My dentist recommended these to me. I was using some other brand and the floss would break off at the end, especially when flossing between my molars which are fairly close together, so at times can take a bit of force to get the floss between them. Plackers never broke off when I used them. I only needed one pick for my whole mouth. This are now my "go to" floss picks.

wish I had read reviews before purchasing but I never thought they would be this bad lol. Pretty much every one I use breaks before I finish flossing all my teeth. I will say the design of these regarding the pic point is quite innovative. You have to fold it to use the pic which keeps them from sticking you if they are in your pocket- I like that. Been buying these types of flossers for years didn't think brand mattered but clearly it does. I will only re-order ones I have used in the past that worked from now on, lesson learned. I you only need a pic these are for you but if you really want to floss I think you will find them very annoying and a waste.

I won’t use any other type. I prefer the wide floss over the thin floss. It doesn’t hurt my gums and these have the wide floss.

This floss pick is very very gentle as the name suggest. It drastically reduces any bleeding or bruising on gums when going in tight spaces between the teeth. The floss is also very thin which allows it to fit. The picks are also easy to bend to become accessible. I also love that the bag is resealable. Love it. Will definitely stick to these from now on! Perfect addition to my routine..I recommend you get these if thinking about it.

These are terrible. I really like the old version of them with the different packaging but these are awful. The floss line is too loose and so when you use it it pushes out and becomes kind of floppy and you can't get it between tight teeth. Furthermore once it's that floppy the plastic nubs that hold the floss bang into my gums. They're just totally awful. I like flat wide floss only. But every thing else about these floss pickers is awful. Why did they change them?

I've had a subscribe and save subscription for Packers Twin-Lines for years, when Twin-Lines were no longer available, Amazon swapped me over to the Plackers Gentle Line. It's going to be just as good because flossing tool is a flossing tool, right? Oh, how wrong I was. The gentle line is substantially different compared to the Twin-Line. I thought maybe it was just me, but I used them over three months and I found I can't stand them and found the Twin-Line from another shop. First, the gentle line seems to be made from a different material. It's weird to say, but the feel of using it is dulled, like I can't tell where it is as easily. Due to this, I found myself hitting my gums with it more than previously...and well, it hurt. The material also seems to break easier than the twin-line. While the twin-line would fray a bit, the gentle line seems to stretch and deform....and then ultimately break. The plastic pick portion of the flossers was the exact same, I didn't notice anything different other than the color. All in all these simple few things annoyed me to no end and made me go back to the Twin-Line. I really would have never thought there could be this much difference in flossers from the same brand. Guess you live and you learn.

Good but alot of them break

Not my favorite flossers. They work ok but i don't like the way the handles are. they kind of poke out when you are flossing and not firm enough to be useful for me.

Far to weak for my teeth, my teeth are close together, need 2 or 3 of them to do the job, as they break so easily.

Doesn’t have the strength in them like they used to

Used these over the years and they were great in their previous form. However, they have recently changed them (probably to save money) and now they are so poorly designed that you need 2 or 3 flosses to properly clean whereas before only 1 was needed. The tape gets very loose after flossing 2 or 3 teeth so sadly I will be looking for an alternative product.

Perhaps it’s just the batch but the frame doesn’t hold the floss well so when you pass it through a tight gap in your teeth it gets loose, could almost be a one star
