The toothbrush alone cannot reach all the hard-to-access areas where plaque forms. Oral-B Essential Floss waxed dental floss can. With its light wax coating and tear-resistant fiber, it easily glides between teeth and below the gum line. It removes plaque from places your toothbrush cannot reach. Use it in the morning or evening while brushing your teeth. Regular use helps prevent the development of cavities and can potentially avoid unpleasant toothaches and costly dental treatments. Oral-B Essential Floss helps keep your gums and teeth healthy.
