Biodegradable silk floss in a refillable glass container praised for eco-friendliness and effectiveness. Customers said it "glides well and doesn't shred" with "teeth feel super clean." However, some report inconsistent quality with occasional breaking, especially with tight teeth. Works well with retainers and reduces plastic waste.
- Love the silk floss! Teeth feel super clean, love being able to easily get refills
- It glides well and doesn't shred, with a sturdier feel than most others
- My bi-annual dental cleanings usually take less than 30 minutes because they say my teeth are so clean
Started with the charcoal floss and wanted to try this type. Haven’t tried it yet but excited to and glad to keep the good habits going!
I've been using the ZWS silk floss for years and love it. It's smooth enough to be easy to use but with enough abrasion to actually keep your mouth clean. (My bi-annual dental cleanings usually take less than 30 minutes because they say my teeth are so clean.) I highly recommend this product!
I love using silk floss in the reusable glass bottle. I love how much plastic is kept out of landfills by having this subscription. However, my recent batch seems to be breaking quite frequently while flossing and I wonder if Zero Waste has changed something about the manufacturing process. It just doesn’t seem as strong as in the past.
Very cute container and very easy to dispense.
I love finding an easy switch to something I need daily. It’s easy to use (just try not to pull out too much like I did once), easy to cut, and fits anywhere. I would recommend this to everyone. It also doesn’t seem to fall apart like your typical floss and the container is so much more sustainable.
This Silk floss is my favorite, it works great for cleaning around the teeth even in the tight areas. It’s extensible and gentle on the gums, doesn’t break. I cut a 6 to 8 inches piece, tie it into a loop and start flossing.
The texture is the same, the feeling is the same, and it doesn't get stuck in my permanent retainers! Will keep buying.
Love the silk floss! Teeth feel super clean, love being able to easily get refills for the glass holder. On the few occasions when I've run out and had to use floss from the grocery store my teeth and gums felt gross!
I've been using the silk floss from ZWS for about 4 years now and it was one of the first swaps I made to be more sustainable. I think it works really well and it's comparable to big name floss brands. The floss isn't as thin as Glide, but unless you have really tight spaces within your teeth there shouldn't be any problem. The refills are convenient to replace once you're done and one spool lasts me for about a month or two with daily flossing.
I love how easy it is to refill the floss container and that it is a biodegradable product! I have no issues with the floss breaking or not working, and I recommend this product to others.
Works well! Love that it's plastic free.
So perfect
Better than plastic floss, doesnt make me cringe which is what i was expecting. Not too thick either. Taste is interesting, no flavor (which is okay) just tastes like nature really
No more flossing with plastic strings, less plastic waste. The strings feel softer on my gums. The only issue is that the strings can sometimes break with too much force.
This floss breaks every other tooth gap I cleaned, and the same happened for my partner. It actually once broke and a tiny piece of it stayed stuck between my teeth. I wasn't able to get it out with other tools since it was such a small piece and getting it out with the floss was a pain since the floss just kept breaking. I wouldn't even recommend this floss to my worst enemy.
This floss is great! It's small and easy to use. I like that you can see the amount that you have left. It also works incredibly well and gets all the grime out of my teeth. I have a permanent retainer and it works perfectly with that as well! I won't go back to the standard
Slides out and cuts easily. Fits between my narrow spaced teeth. Super clean product. Will buy again.
Love this product!
good quality, compact
Not only is at biodegradable and refillable, but it also works great. I still have all my teeth and there is no food stuck in between. Even my right teeth way in the back of my mouth (I have never had any molars removed, so it's pretty tight back there)!
I highly recommend. Great for stocking stuffers and every visit to the dental office I buy a pack for my dentist in the hopes that he'll stop giving me little plastic travel size floor and switch... Fingers crossed.
I've been using this for years and have never noticed a difference from conventional floss. It goes right into my compost tumbler and breaks down very quickly
I get my dental floss from ZWS because it has not chemicals in it. It is safe and effective. My teeth are strong and my gums are healthy! All thanks to this product!!
The silk floss from ZeroWasteStore is as good or better than floss I buy at the grocery store. I have also been able to put the refills into used floss containers.
I love the idea of this floss. I think I'm just not used to it yet. I've been using floss picks for so long and wrapping this floss around my fingers is kind of tricky now. Sometimes it snaps while using, but I wonder if thats user error because I have it wound too tightly. It gets the job done, though, and I love that it's so minimal in waste.
The first time I bought this it was great, very strong. The second time it is too flimsy to use at all. If I knew it would always be sturdy I would keep buying it.
I’ve tried a lot of different eco-friendly flosses and this one is hands down my favorite. It glides well and doesn’t shred, with a sturdier feel than most others. I highly recommend this product!
This floss works as well as any I’ve ever used and is free of PFAS (found in most commercial brands of floss). The fact that it comes in a refillable glass container also helps me reduce my use of plastic.
Works well, gotta be gentle though.
