Dental Floss Threaders

Make Hygiene Easier With a Dental Floss Threader

Flossing can be an important part of your daily routine, and a dental floss threader is designed to help you with this process. You will find dental floss threaders on eBay from several brands at affordable prices. Understanding how these threaders work and what options you can choose will help you find the right one for your flossing needs.

Main features of dental floss threaders

Floss threaders may help you reach difficult areas of your mouth that are hard for you to reach any other way. The mechanics of a threader can help you get floss into the upper gum line area of the mouth. Although various brands design and produce their own versions of the threader, many of these products share some similar characteristics. Below are some of the basic features you can expect to find on a common dental floss threader:

• Loops - The loop mechanism on a dental floss threader can help you secure a line of floss and insert it into tricky areas. Loops are designed to help you get around complex dental work such as braces or bridges.
• Grip - A durable plastic grip allows you to hold the threader firmly as you insert floss and prepare it for use.
• Shred-resistant surface - The body of the threader shouldn't cut your floss.

Can you get other types of dental floss threaders?

The standard dental floss threader is a small stick with a loop at one end. However, you can also get floss threaders that act like implants. These threaders go into your mouth directly and feature threaders that are similar to the loops on standard floss threaders. You can pull the floss through each end to use it.

What brands make dental floss threaders?

You will find dental floss threaders from several companies on eBay. If you already have a preferred oral hygiene company in mind, you can use the categories on eBay to find floss threaders from that brand. Note that you may be able to get brand new and used dental floss threaders from various brands on eBay. Threaders sold as used items are often available in bulk sets at inexpensive prices. However, they will still come to you as new items in their original packaging and ready for use. Some common threader brands you will find are listed here:

• Oral-B - A brand that makes products for hygiene including threaders and other dental products.
• DenTek - A developer and manufacturer of various oral products for personal and professional use.
• GUM - This business produces various cleaning tools and accessories.
