It looks like we've got a case of green washing going on To keep their shape, the picks are made of corn starch, which needs a binder, but this binder is polypropylene Plastic), which is a synthetic material. In any case, they are still plastic and have to be processed by machinery, which is why they may be recyclable. The best solution would be for them to be With that said and excluding the fact that these are good choices environmentally, these are also These are strong, and the floss has a lot of durability and does not break easily. They are thin enough to work well with teeth with tight places between them. In the back, there is a pick that is sharp enough to reach places that are difficult to reach.
Generally, when they say "mainly made from cornstarch," they mean 40% cornstarch and 60% PLA thermoplastic, some of which might not be The PLA does not biodegrade at ambient temperatures and has a similar degradation life expectancy as non-PLA based plastics Plastics made of biopolyesters (think water bottles), do not fully decompose for a century or more. Unlike nylon floss, PLA can be incinerated without producing carcinogens. However, nylon floss produces dioxins if it is The product is a step in the right direction, but I don't think it is a sustainable, closed loop, product as the marketing made it seem.
The floss most people use doesn't work for me because of my tight teeth. I sometimes have to use three picks for one floss, as other floss picks I have used in the past break easily. I love these picks because they are so strong and awesome. I have used them so far 100 times, and they fit superbly between my teeth and have remained intact every time.
In the interest of preventing cavities, I will compromise with the classic floss since it is more ecologically sound. Because corn starch was used to make these floss picks, they will biodegrade ultimately It's good to hear that! Plastic will be less likely to persist in the environment for a very long time. As far as the floss itself is concerned, it is thin and slippery, and easily glides As of yet, my flosser has not broken on me. It is almost always the case that the plastic brands you find at the pharmacy snap or the floss starts falling apart. I have not heard of anyone in my family experiencing this with these so far.
I like these very much. There is plenty of room for all my teeth on there. There is a lot of durability to it. There aren't really any environmental benefits to them However, they are as friendly as they claim. Though they are better than most, you can't compost them at home and you can't recycle them at most recycling centers, so you're just throwing them in landfill trash. The green aspect isn't as apparent with these, but they are still good for the price A friendly person.
This is me Dentist's floss is a mystery to me. Flossing with disposable floss is recommended by a dentist. This is me I hate the planet (I am killing it!)
These are fantastic! I haven't had the string disconnect once when I put it on that tight spot, so it's just as sturdy as the plastic type. We must be affordable, maintain dental health, and do not kill the environment. Let's at least go a bit more slowly.
My understanding of this floss is that it is standard strength. I found that if I go all the way around as a quick floss, as I did to test this, it is frayed by the time I'm finished. There is only a very slight taste to it There was a moment when I thought it wasn't there! Mint didn't feel (not taste) on my tongue until a minute after I stopped flossing, though I did my whole mouth and paused to get My floss doesn't taste bad at all, and I am glad that it isn't infused with artificial colorings and flavors that I don't need in my body after all the cake I want to eat. (Priorities, When it comes to the actual flossing, it feels like a basic flosser. Sustainable innovation is a great thing!.
My personal experience has been very positive with them. the gaps between my teeth are very tight, but the floss does not break between them. There have only been a few occasions where the floss on one of the picks shredded a bit, but I've never This pick has a flat and thin end that is thin enough to slide into crevices in between teeth. There are no other brands I have tried, so I cannot make a comparison, but so far nothing about these makes me wonder if I should try something else.
