> 3 dayI got adult braces about 2 weeks ago. If youre thinking to get some of these for your teens with braces I highly recommend younget these. Thy were much better than the ones I got from my orthodontist. Ive had a lot of trouble using regular floss with how crowded my teeth are, and these have made flossing much easier. Im using these in conjunction with my water pick and brushing to try to get my teeth as clean as possible. The orange side is a bit for flexible than I though so I will still keep a small brush with me to get in hard to reache spots.

> 3 dayAre you kidding me. These are amazing. Couldnt get our kids to floss using what I used as a kid. The threaders to thread the floss between the braces. Then floss one tooth and do it again. Found these and it was an instant success. Just as easy as the floss picks you use without braces. Its almost like you dont have braces. Both of our kids that have braces get two thumbs up from the orthodontist every time they go in for an appointment. I dont think I got one 30 years ago when I had my braces. Makes keeping their teeth clean and their gums healthy so much easier. Plus they last forever. Its not like you have to use a new one every night if you dont want to. You can easily floss a couple times a day with one stick. What a life saver!!!!

> 3 dayI have tried other flossing picks but the floss string is not as good as these. They usually rip or wear out before your done using these, the floss on the Plackers picks are much better and higher quality . I use them everyday after eating as it has become a habit and hate having things stuck in between my teeth or on my braces. However I do wish the orange pointy part was not made out of rubber and it was made out of plastic like the whole design because food gets stuck on the braces and they are to thick to pick out the food, but overall still love using Plackers products

> 3 dayYOU NEED THESE if you have braces! I hated using threading floss. I resorted to tree brushes of different sizes which were great but the money can start to add up. I eventually got a waterpik to make things easier but would sometimes just skip flossing because it was too much work. Then I went to the dentist for a cleaning and they used these on me. Idk why my ortho doesn’t mention these or provide samples but they are wonderful. Only thing to note is if you still have a lot of crowding and your brackets are too close, you won’t be able to fit these behind your wire. I started using these about 4-5 months in. Braces come off at my next appointment!

24-11-2024I recently got my braces and bought these hoping they would make flossing my teeth easier. Well, they sort of did the job. They do NOT fit in between every bracket/tooth. Some spaces are just too small/tight. I recommend if you cant easily slide it thru, dont force it. They fit thru more than half so it was some help. The ones I cant pass them thru i’ll just use regular floss and thread them thru. Definitely minimized my flossing routine time after braces so im glad I bought them.

> 3 dayThese picks were recommended by my husband’s orthodontist. They work very well in getting food out of his braces. They don’t damage the braces.

24-11-2024I can floss about 1/2 of my teeth with braces. I have super tight spaces so I use in addition to a water pick. These are great! I recommend trying all of the things to see what works for you. I am an adult with braces.

> 3 dayAll 5 of my kids and I used these when we had braces. They fit in well and make flossing so easy! Never had a string break or get stuck between teeth.

> 3 dayI bought these after my daughter ran out or another brand. She was not able to fit these between her teeth and the wire in multiple places. I’ve switched her back to the precious brand and now use these for myself. The orange “toothpick” is super flimsy and pointless.
