The Butler expanding floss is great for people with teeth that are a bit crowded. It is a great product and for some reason virtually impossible to find in retail stores. It slides between crowded teeth very easily and does not get stuck. I highly recommend it.

Does a great job scraping plaque off teeth. It’s a little thicker than some and may not work for someone with tight spaces.

I’ve been receiving GUM-branded floss samples from my dentist for years and had used them without any thought when my regular Glide floss ran out. After finding out the the Glide floss really doesn’t do much for removing plaque (it’s made out of PTFE (Teflon) so it’s way too slick), I was looking for a replacement. I was using the off brand from the local drugstore but it tended to get shredded between a couple molars and get stuck in there. I’d then have to use a length of Glide to get the annoying fragment out. The GUM floss never shreds or gets caught in my teeth and seems to do a good job at cleaning them. The manufacturers tout this floss as “expanding” which it certainly does when you are finished with it and the tension is released, but I’m not sure how effective this “feature” is during use. Since you keep tension on the floss during use, it can’t expand. This floss isn’t the same as what my dentist gives me, but it is a very high quality product and seems to do its job quite well. When you first use it, it feels like it’s waxed, but I don’t think it is. I don’t see how it could expand if it were.
If you are looking for a good, strong floss, give this one a try.
