Give your teeth and gums that squeaky-clean feeling with a little help from Mother Nature. At Desert Essence, our gluten-free dental floss is made with sustainably sourced beeswax and Australian tea tree oil, allowing it to glide smoothly through tough-to-clean areas while helping to keep bacteria at bay.

Dental tape is very similar to floss, but it has a thicker width and flatter shape that enables it to thoroughly clean wider spaces between teeth. Desert Essence’s dental tape also uses botanical wonders such as Australian tea tree oil for cleansing the gums and mint essential oil for freshening breath.

Waxed dental floss consists of nylon strands twisted together and coated with a light layer of wax. The key difference between our dental floss and dental tape is that the latter features a flatter, thicker shape that enables it to thoroughly cleanse wider spaces between teeth and gums. Whether you choose dental floss or tape really depends on you — floss may be easier to use for people with tight spaces between their teeth, but tape could be helpful if you have wider spaces. Tape may also be more comfortable to hold if you have bigger hands.

Flossing daily goes hand in hand with a beautiful smile! First and foremost, flossing before you brush your teeth will help you reduce the buildup of plaque and tartar. It also removes food particles and bacteria that can leave your breath less than minty fresh.

So, what’s the proper way to floss? Flossing is easy to incorporate into your oral care routine, and it doesn't take very long at all. Simply pull out 18 inches of our beeswax dental floss and wind it around your fingers. Guide the floss between your teeth and gums in an up-and-down motion and curve around the base of each tooth to clean beneath the gum line. Repeat using a clean section between each tooth.

Of course, you can also oil pull or use a prebiotic brushing rinse before you floss to further bolster your dental care routine. Then, remember to follow up flossing with your favorite Desert Essence fluoride-free toothpaste and alcohol-free mouthwash for a sparkling smile!
