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.

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.

Small and perfect for purse!

I'm a flosser - I'm one of those people who doesn't have to lie to her dentist at my check-up because I floss regularly. I keep a container in my purse at all times and really appreciate how small and sturdy this is. One of my annoyances with most plastic floss containers is the way it will sometimes flip open and the floss ends up dirty, and potentially all through my purse. I haven't run into that issue with this, as it is secure.

Zero Waste

This is a nice little dental floss kit. It comes ready to use in a little glass vial. It's easy to carry with you in a purse or a bag. The clear glass vial makes it easy to see when you are running low which is nice since I am usually surprised when I run out of the brand I used to use.
The floss works well, gliding easily between your teeth.
I like the zero-waste aspect of using something that is refillable rather than disposable.

Great Product

This is my first time trying a floss made from bamboo fiber and I really like it. The floss is very durable and doesn't break. I like the small glass container that holds the floss. It's small enough to be portable and would be great for travel or on the go. There are benefits of using bamboo charcoal floss, which is a great bonus.
