Floss Threaders for Braces, Bridges, and Implants (50 Count (Pack of 3))

Spring Valley Dental on Instagram: "🔹 Advantages • Restores function (chewing, speaking). • Improves smile and aesthetics. • Prevents shifting of adjacent teeth. • Long-lasting (with good oral hygiene, often 10–15+ years). 🔹 Disadvantages • Requires reduction (drilling down) of healthy abutment teeth (for traditional bridges). • Can be difficult to clean under the pontic (requires special floss/threaders). • May eventually need replacement if decay or gum problems develop around abutments. #df

The Health Hub on Instagram: "🦷Persons with braces use floss threaders or interdental floss to navigate around brackets and wires, removing food particles and plaque from between teeth and under the gumline. This specialized floss helps maintain oral hygiene and prevent issues like tooth decay and gum disease. By threading the floss through the threader and gently guiding it between teeth, individuals can keep their teeth and gums healthy throughout orthodontic treatment. #floss #braces #oralhe
