I have to use Toothpicks / Plackers on a daily basis especially after eating due to the spacing of some of my teeth. Anyway, I previously used mainly toothpicks and always ran into the same problem that the wood would break. After trying several plackers, I could never find one which reliefs my tooth ache due to food getting stuck..... till I found these Plackers. They are absolutely great to for flossing and cleaning food particles from between your teeth. The plastic is very sturdy, the flosser holds in place and doesn't break. Definitely will have to purchase again.

These are the best floss picks around. I have really tight teeth in the back and these are the only floss picks that I've found that work well for me. Most floss picks shred and pieces get stuck in my teeth. I hate that. Or many simply break when trying. These also have a nice little curved pick at the opposite end. This is great for scrapping your teeth, if needed, or picking items stuck in the crown of your teeth.

I've tried many, many floss picks. I prefer these to actual floss strings because it's easier and less awkward than opening wide and placing several fingers in your mouth. I've tried the expensive ones, the super glide, and so forth. I've actually tried several of the Plackers branded types. These I find to work best for me. It's a plus that these are some of the most inexpensive also. I actually used to get them in smaller amounts from the Dollartree, but they've become increasingly more difficult to find. I'm thankful I found them here on Amazon.

Nothing special as a flosser, but the problem is that there are dirty picks in the package. I have a bag of 110 flossers. I noticed there was chocolate brown stuff on one side of the pick after I'd used it. I didn't eat anything chocolatey, and it looked dried. I dumped out the other flossers on a wipe napkin and discovered quite a few had the same dried brown stuff on the corners of the picks. Some had reddish stuff. Just disgusting! I didn't get it from amazon, but I just wanted to let prospective purchasers know that Plackers QC dropped the ball on my package. Sorry, but made in China poor quality is not surprising.

Plackers is a fairly good brand of floss picks. I use picks religiously, because the regular floss seems like such a pain now. I like how sturdy the plastic is on these picks. It doesn't bend back and forth while I'm trying to floss. The tape is ok. I haventbhad any problems with it shredding, but I have to use at least 4 picks each time I floss. Some other brands I only have to use two.

Overall, these aren't the absolute best I've used, but I don't have too many complaints. The price is pretty good for the amount of picks. I do have to use double the amount though. I would order them again, because they do the job and the floss isn't waxy.

Tl;dr: Just buy normal floss.

"Gently flosses between tight teeth. Slides easily to resist shredding or breaking." This is what it says right on the bag. Both statements are only half true. Let us break them down.

"Gently flosses between tight teeth." Yeah, it would if it could get between them. It can't. Instead the floss either stretches into uselessness or pulls off the flosser. If I manage to finagle it between my teeth through a series of precise finesses, it just pulls apart when I extract it. Furthermore, if used between well-spaced teeth it's too gentle (i.e. stretchy) to be effective.

"Slides easily to resist shredding or breaking." While it is true that the floss neither shreds nor breaks, it is not true that the flosser itself doesn't break. It does, rather easily. (See above.) I will grant that there was no shredding, which is not exactly the highest achievement considering this is made entirely of plastic.
