Question 1

This floss is $22 for 96 yards vs. something like $3.49 for 100 yards of regular floss.  Is there any reasonably priced alternative?

Accepted Answer

I bought Cocofloss for a couple years because my dentist recommended it. It's good, but expensive, about $0.26/yard. I recently switched to Xlent floss (Amazon's Choice) for .09/yard and love it. It might be slightly thicker than Cocofloss, is charcoal black and you can see all the gunk it picks up. Worth a try!

Question 2

How many yards of floss in each?

Accepted Answer

Each individual unit contains 32-yards.

Accepted Answer

Microcrystalline waxes are a type of wax produced by de-oiling petrolatum, as part of the petroleum refining process. In contrast to the more familiar paraffin wax which contains mostly unbranched alkanes, microcrystalline wax contains a higher percentage of isoparaffinic (branched) hydrocarbons and naphthenic hydrocarbons. Microcrystalline waxes are derived from the refining of the heavy distillates from lubricant oil production. This by-product must then be de-oiled at a wax refinery. Depending on the end use and desired specification, the product may then have its odor removed and color removed (which typically starts as a brown or dark yellow). This is usually done by means of a filtration method or by hydro-treating the wax material.

So if u r looking for a non toxic floss, try Dr tungs. it's coated with beeswax and works better than any floss i've tried, suberbly so 5 stars. I just wish it came in unflavored. However, the cardamom is a much better alternative to any type of mint flavor.

Question 4

Is this any different than other woven, unwaxed floss? I use the Reach/Listerine brand and it works much better than unwoven, waxed floss.

Accepted Answer

When my dental hygenist suggested coco floss I was sceptical also. It is the best floss you will ever use. It makes you mouth and teeth feel so clean and refreshed. The material is unlike anything on the market. I have used them all. I know it is expensive, but it is worth every penny.
