Combined with Elmex Toothpaste, Elmex Dental Floss will ensure that your teeth are clean and healthy and ready for the fight against plaque, caries and gum disease. Elmex Dental Floss is impregnated with amine fluoride which is released each time the floss is used. Amine fluoride is directed towards the enamel on the teeth helping to strengthen them. It does this by inhibiting the build up of plaque bacteria, the major cause of tooth erosion.
Regular use of Elmex Dental Floss will also protect the gums from bacterial attack and inflammation. There are 2 varieties of the floss to choose from ” waxed and non-waxed. Flossing teeth with Elmex Dental Floss is easy. You simply snap off a small amount of the floss, wrap the ends around the middle fingers of each hand and insert between the interdental spaces. Making sure to hold the floss tight, you then just pull backwards and forwards gently to clean between the teeth. Wrapping the floss around each tooth and repeating the process will clean the gum line.
