Butler Flossmate Handle 12/Pk

I despise flossing. But I made a resolution to finally floss in my life. These got my whole flossing. Super easy and easy better than disposable ones or wrapping floss around your fingers

This flossing tool is well designed and makes flossing a breeze. With this tool flossing is quick and easy. I can't see myself flossing everyday without this product.

The floss handles were what I needed and ordered. I love the colors and it's uses. Very handy to clean my teeth. I will definitely use it everyday.

I tried this product more years ago than I can remember, but back then I knew it was a worthy investment. I can't find this product in any of the local drug stores. One of the reasons, I guess, is its durability. My dentist had them available for a while but has since gone to the junk you can get in the stores. The biggest advantage the Flossmate has over similar products is the width between the prong ends. Most of the newer flossers seem to be just wide enough to get between the teeth but allow for little side-to-side action to work the floss down to the gum line. Plus, the only thing you discard is the used floss and not the whole apparatus as you would with the disposable models. All in all, it's a great product that will last for years with proper care (Clean after each use and don't drop it on hard flooring. It can chip or break.). I bought the 12-pack, so I may give out some to friends to make converts out of them.

I used a floss holder like this one for years until the plastic, a bit brittle due to its age, broke one morning. I drove to four separate drug stores looking for a replacement and found that dental supply companies are turning away from inexpensive tools like this in favor of one-use disposable pre-threaded flossers. I can see why. Why buy a Flossmate for $2-$3 each and use it for years when the company can get you to buy packs and packs of one-use flossers over the same period? Nice. Way to lessen the impact on the environment.I find a flossing tool like the Flossmate to be very helpful when flossing, much better than wrapping the floss around one's fingers, cutting off the circulation as you try to jam one or the other in your mouth. A tool like this is easier to maneuver and allows you to use whatever floss you want with economy and minimal impact on the environment, as opposed to the one-use disposables that send a bit more plastic to the landfill every day.

This makes flossing a lot easier! I actually avoiding flossing because it was so time consuming. Since this product arrived I have been flossing twice a day :D 4 stars because sometimes the floss comes off completely - so I have had to learn to apply it in an exact way to get it to stay put. When it does, though, it works beautifully! High quality plastic. And reusable, so better for the environment.

We used these from our dentist for a long time, but they stopped providing them (and used the cheap, throw away stuff) and we just couldn't find a store that carried them although we looked every time and place we shopped. We think it's because they work so well and last too long. We finally found these on Amazon and bought a dozen of them-not because they break easily but to give some to family. They work better than anything else we've found, it's that simple.

I purchased this dental floss holder probably 30 years ago, and it is the only reason I floss, because it is so convenient. Never having seen it in stores I figured it was no longer available. But after a quick search on the good ole' internet I found it. It comes in packs of 12 and packs of 3. By mistake I ordered both packages, so I'll probably be buried with 14 of the holders if they all last as long as my last one did.

If you have arthritis in your hands you will find that the Butler Flossmate Handle makes flossing your teeth easier and much less painful. Another added bonus is that you will use much less dental floss as well.
