You might think that cleaning the visible surface of your teeth is enough, but cavities often form where teeth touch each other. To thoroughly clean these areas, you need either floss or a floss-pick. But what’s the difference between the two?

The floss-pick, or floss toothpick, is ideal for beginners. The floss is pre-stretched on the handle, making it much easier to use.
It’s practical for travel, fits in your pocket or purse, and can be used at any time of the day.

Although traditional flossing requires some skill and practice, its great advantage is that it covers the entire tooth more thoroughly. As a result, it cleans even those areas where a floss-pick can’t reach, such as just below the gum line.

The ideal solution is to use a floss-pick for quick cleaning during the day and traditional floss for more thorough care at home.
