Smart Floss Material: Smart Floss is made of polyester fibers like many flosses. Unlike other flosses, Smart Floss is made in a proprietary, patented process that gives a softer, expanded effect while flossing. It is clinically proven to remove up to 55% more plaque than traditional brands. Why don't we use natural materials like silk or cotton? We have opted not to use silk due to the heavy processing and the treatment of the silkworms. Plus it cannot be manufactured in the same way as Smart Floss and thus would be less effective in removing plaque. Cotton was once used as dental floss. However, it’s no longer popular because it frays and breaks easily. It can also be harsher on gums and less effective overall.

Wax: To ensure comfortable flossing and to keep the fibers performing effectively, we use a vegetable and beeswax blend. To this, we add our acclaimed natural cardamom essential oil. We do not use petrochemical waxes or artificial flavors.
