Quip Dental Floss Picks, Refillable Dispenser, Slate Metal, 3-Month Mint Refill

Floss picks are not as good as regular flossing but they are great for when you just ate something that got stuck in there. I use mine after corn on the cob or something like that. Then use regular floss before bed. I was skeptical about the refillable bit but it works like a dream. So simple to use and refill.

It worked well the first few uses then the floss started to slide out of the pick while using it. Tried placing the floss in closer to the closure and further from the closure with the same results. I am unsure if this is defective, but it didn't work for me.

The concept of this is really awesome. I hated throwing away all of the plastic that came with disposable flossers. I thought that this was going to be the ticket. Unfortunately my teeth are pretty snug next to each other and the floss doesn't hold firm in the handle. It often stretches or pulls out of place so I end up going through 10-12 pieces when flossing which is something that didn't happen with the Reach Flossing Heads I used to use. Maybe with some updates to this device or the floss it will be better. I love everything else about it though!

I like the ease of floss picks, and this makes me feel a lot more environmentally conscious. The expanding floss didn't work well for me, I would have to restring for almost every tooth. The sliding floss works a lot better, I can now just restring once halfway through. The only downside with the sliding floss is that it doesn't seem to cut very well for me. The floss doesn't stay quite as taught as I would like throughout the whole session, but it's not enough to be a major issue for me.

In hindsight, I should have ordered the other floss pick product. I thought you used this to floss as is. With that aside the floss is unusable it shreds and breaks. The round shape doesn't perform as well as the flat floss style. Wanted to love. The container is cool but this is a fail for me.
