Best Dental Floss

Best Dental Floss - r/DentalHygiene's Top Picks for Gum Health

TL;DR: Cocofloss & Dr. Tung's dominate the woven/expanding hype; Oral-B Glide new formula universally hated due to shredding & PFAS concerns; textured floss > smooth tape for actual cleaning; Waterpiks are good add-ons but string is king; premium prices worth it for gum health
