Facile d'utilisation

I got a bridge on my upper molars about 6 months ago. At the time, the hygienist made the flossing sound so simple. She even demonstrated. She did not use a threader. However, when I got home and tried it, I discovered my mouth is way too small to even see where to place the floss on the bridge, let alone thread it through. This made me nervous, I knew I had to figure out a way to floss there. I went to the (large) corner drugstore. I picked one of each rule of threaded and floss. To be honest there weren't a lot of choices. And after hours of frustration in front of the bathroom mirror, I gave up. There was just no way to get a little string threaded into such a tight space. I got out my water pik to use until I could solve this problem. I got online and began to search. At this point I was willing to try anything. I finally ran across these Naslund Bridge Aid Theaters. I couldn't imagine anything made of plastic accomplishing this feat (surely they would be too thick) but they weren't very expensive so I ordered some. They were delivered very quickly and in fine condition. I really liked the limited amount of packaging they used. No plastic bags, just small paper envelopes with several threaders in each. I gave it a try immediately using standard, thin, waxed floss. The threaded is curved in such a way and is just the right length, I was able to "find" the space between bridge and gum with the tip and with a few short wiggles, it threaded right through! I was thrilled. Mission Accomplished! I highly recommend these simple but perfectly designed flossing aides for anyone who has bridge work.

Because these are for my own personal use, I rinse after and use again. It would be great to eventually have an environmentally and compost-friendly, non-plastic version. In the meantime, they work as described and get into the places necessary around bridgework.
