Platypus Orthodontic Flossers for Braces, 30 Count (Pack of 2)

These are so fantastic for braces! Both of my kids use these because they are much easier than the threaders the orthodontists give out. They are well made and seem like a good value.

Great product for individuals who have braces. Easy way to floss. Loved it!

I purchased the Platypus Orthodontic Flossers for my son, who wears braces, and they have made a huge difference in his daily oral hygiene routine. Before using these flossers, flossing around the wires was time-consuming and frustrating. These fit easily under the arch wire and make the process quick and simple. My son is able to use them on his own, which encourages him to floss more consistently. They are gentle on the braces, easy to handle, and much more convenient than traditional flossing methods for orthodontic patients. These flossers help remove food particles and plaque from hard-to-reach areas, making it easier to maintain good oral health during orthodontic treatment. I highly recommend them for both kids and adults with braces. Great product and well worth the purchase!

These are so easy for braces, it’s a bittersweet feeling to leave these behind since my braces will be off very soon but they have kept the areas between my teeth so clean and fresh! I also really like the pointy end of the flosser because they can remove the food and such from your braces

I am a 46-year-old woman who just got braces. It has been quite the journey during the first week getting used to them and all their "friends": the sores in my inner cheek, the difficulty eating food and eliminating certain foods I used to eat, and especially the challenge of keeping my teeth and gums clean. These Platypus flossers have helped tremendously. I did a lot of research on different orthodontics flossing devices, and I ending up buying these flossers along with Oral-B Superfloss, G.U.M. Go Betweens Proxabrushes, regular floss to be used occasionally with the threader from my orthodontist, and a 10X magnification mirror. I went from being in tears trying to floss my teeth to finally heaving a sigh of relief with a smile once I figured out how to keep my teeth clean. Here is what I have found works best: The Platypus flossers are wonderful, easy to use, and the easiest of all the flossers in terms of "feel". That is, I don't have to look in the mirror to use them. I can easily tell by feel where to place the Platypus under the wire between my brackets. However, these flossers do NOT work when the brackets are placed very closely together. This is the case with my bicuspids and cuspids. Due to how my teeth need to move and rotate properly, my orthodontist placed the brackets on two adjoining teeth (on each side) very, very closely together, so the Platypus flosser does not fit at all in between these teeth because the space between the brackets is too narrow. It won't even fit under the arch wire! In that case, the Oral-B Superfloss is my perfect solution. I can easily thread its tiny, narrow, stiff end right in between the narrowest of crevices (under the arch wire) in order to floss. It works even better than the stiff threader my orthodontist provided. I wouldn't be able to floss everything without it. For my premolars and molars, both the Superfloss and these Platypus flossers work almost equally well. Again, the Platypus flossers work best in the rear of my mouth where the brackets are spaced more widely apart due to the larger size of the molars. I use the G-U-M Go Betweens back here, also, because they are perfect for clearing packed food from between my brackets and around the arch wire. Finally, the other indispensable part of my flossing routine is the stand-up 10X magnification mirror. Before I ordered it from Amazon, I wasn't able to see in the way back of my mouth where I needed to floss because my jaw is so narrow. I needed both hands to separate my lips and cheek from the flossing area, and I couldn't do that while holding a mirror. Right now, with all of these tools, I can floss faster and more easily! I hope this helps all those frustrated souls who, like me, struggle with very crowded teeth and newly placed braces and who were beginning to think flossing effectively would be impossible. It's not if you have the right tools. Don't give up, and you will find the solution that is best for you.

The Platypus Orthodontic Flossers are excellent for anyone with braces, and even great for those without. I found them to be easy to use, effective, and gentle on teeth and gums. The thin, flexible design fits under arch wires without damaging braces, making flossing much easier than with regular floss. The ergonomic handle is comfortable to hold, which is especially helpful for kids or adults just getting into a flossing routine. These flossers are perfect for maintaining good oral hygiene, helping remove food particles and plaque from hard-to-reach areas. The pack of 3 with 30 flossers each is convenient and lasts a while. They’re a great tool for encouraging consistent flossing habits, whether you have braces or not. Pros: - Fits easily under braces wires - Gentle on teeth and gums - Comfortable, ergonomic handle - Encourages consistent flossing habits - Convenient multipack Cons: - Plastic handle is disposable (environmental consideration) Overall, these flossers are high-quality, practical, and a must-have for anyone with braces—or anyone wanting an easier flossing experience!

It's great product! Help me a lot!

Ortho recommended, They help my kids floss with their braces

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!!

ワイヤー矯正始めて1ヶ月、奥歯がどう頑張っても糸のフロスで掃除できずでしたが、こちらはすんなり通すことができてごっそりと歯垢が取れました、、、！！臭くて悶絶しましたがそれ以上に感激です。割高ですが、奥歯はこのフロス、前歯とその付近は糸でお掃除頑張りたいと思います！
