DIRECTIONS
Use about 45 cm of floss wound around one of your middle fingers, with the rest wound around a middle finger on the opposite hand. Hold the floss tightly between the thumbs and fore fingers and gently insert it between the teeth. Curve the floss into a "C" shape against the side of the tooth. Rub the floss gently up and down, keeping it pressed against the tooth. Don't jerk or snap the floss. Floss all your teeth - don't forget behind the back teeth!
INGREDIENTS
Mulberry silk floss, candelilla wax and natural mint flavouring.
Sustainably made in China using traditional silk farming methods.

I've used this floss for about 2 years. Absolutely loved it to start with, it cleaned well and was sustainable. But now with my most recent refill the floss snaps constantly to the point I don't want to use it anymore. I'm hoping it was just a bad batch but I'm too scared to try.
I bought this product a few times: initially it was so nice I even distributed to friends. Later on, I've noticed that the thickness of the floss had reduced (probably over feedback that it was possibly very thick), but it meant that it breaks all the time while flossing. I haven't re-ordered since, but haven't found a good alternative on the market either. I hope Susie's and my feedback help improve the quality of this product.
I have previously used other vegan dental floss and found it hurt my guns as it was too thick. The Dental Lace Refill is not as thick as this previous floss, which makes the process much more enjoyable. The wax coating also helps, although it does sometimes fray between sharp-edged teeth. I would prefer if it didn’t come in PLA, but still an excellent eco option.
I chose this product because it probably won’t be here in 10000 years after its brief stint cleaning my teeth! And clean between my teeth it does, well. Perhaps marginally less strong than the plastic alternative, but that is so minor that I will continue to choose biodegradable.
