When it comes to eco-friendly floss, the team at Ecoternatives has tried a lot. That means floss made from corn, recycled plastic, peace silk, and bamboo. 

But we chose bamboo because it's very sustainable, incredibly strong, and perfectly fray-resistant. Then instead of lacing our floss with PFA's to help it glide between your teeth, we opted for 100% natural Candelilla wax.

If you don't know what PFA'S are, they're known as "forever chemicals" because they're highly persistent, and take years to leave your body. They've also been linked to liver & immune system damage, developmental issues, and even cancer. Unfortunately, many traditional flosses are coated with them. Why it's not talked about more, is beyond me. 

Comes in 98ft spools with a light mint oil to enhance taste.

Ingredients

Bamboo, glass, aluminum.

The Environmental Problem

According to the American Dental Association (ADA), for every person in the US who flosses their teeth, just the empty floss dispensers would fill a football field 6 stories high every year.

A Harvard study also found that many conventional dental flosses contain flourine, which indicates the presences of PFA's.

Health effects associated with PFA's include cancer, liver damage, decreased fertility, increased risk of asthma, and thyroid disease.

Chemicals in this class are found in nonstick pans, waterproof jackets, fire extinguisher foam, and more.

Scrubs Between Teeth, Great for Permanent Retainer!

I love this floss so much more than normal plastic floss because it actually scrubs in between my teeth. I have a permanent retainer behind my bottom front teeth and it's impossible to keep the plaque off with my electric toothbrush and plastic floss. In the past, whenever I would get dental cleanings, they'd spend most of the appointment picking around the retainer. Now with this floss, that area stays so clean! The two refill spools have lasted me a year, so the price is amazing for the quantity and quality!

Excellent Sustainable Floss

This floss is amazing and such a great zero waste product. The bottle is so cute and being able to see when I need to refill it is a huge plus too. Definitely recommend!

Awesome floss

This works great. I feel way better about using this than regular floss, esp since regular floss has something in it that I think I’m allergic to.

Good Floss

Nothing life changing because it's just a floss, but I love using it knowing I'm reducing my plastic waste! One time I lost the end back in the glass and panicked a bit but the lid screws off easily so you can re-thread it if that ever happens. My favorite part is that it makes a cool pattern as it's used up :)
Just ordered more refills.

Very Sturdy Floss

I have permanent retainers, and normal floss always starts to get stringy and pulled apart when I floss. This stuff doesn’t do that! It’s super sturdy, and stays in one strand through the whole flossing process.
