The benefits of having waxed floss are obvious; the wax makes it much easier to slide the floss into and out of small gaps in your mouth. So why would anyone prefer unwaxed floss? This product is only for those who are more experienced at using dental floss and can squeeze the string fibres into tight gaps without the assistance of surface wax.
The absence of wax does make it easier to grip the surface of the dental floss, so you are less likely to lose your grip and your control of the strand and it also prevents the build up on your teeth of an unpleasant waxy residue, which can happen when you are using waxed floss a lot or on teeth with very small gaps.
The Acclean Floss Unwaxed is just as string and durable as the Waxed version, and can be used to floss thoroughly between teeth and below the gum line to effectively clean up plaque and pieces of food. The Unwaxed floss is also available in either unflavoured or a fresh mint flavour and is bought in a hygienic plastic dispenser.
