GUM Soft-Picks Advanced, Easy to Use Dental Picks for Teeth Cleaning and Gum Health, Disposable Interdental Brushes with Convenient Carry Case, Dentist Recommended Dental Picks, 90 Count (Pack of 3)

At first I was skeptical about this type of flossing... but let me tell you.... this is a game changer. I love how clean my teeth feel. So much better then ordinary flossing sticks.

My dentist hygienist turned me onto these little pics. I absolutely love they work really good and they feel really nice on your gums. Great value for your money. !

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.

While I like the thinner “pick,” it does easily bend and deform, which makes it basically trash after that.

Excellent for removing food from teeth after a meal, especially when your toothbrush is not available. I leave these in my purse when I go to a restaurant or home of a friend.

These are the teeth cleaners of which it has been spoken, e'en since the beginning of times. They are sturdy and pointing and strong and I clean clean clean, put them between all teeth. Perfect for picking from front or back from low to high, can even use with weak hand (left) reaching over to clean up and under the back retainer. Don't you think for one sec' that the other little ones are just as good. No way.

This item exceeded my exceptions completely. The are comfortable to use and very effective.

Well made; gets the job done !
