Radius Natural Floss
Flossing everyday can be a chore but having a variety of flosses to choose from makes life better! I floss daily to avoid plaque buildup, tartar, and cavities. I also hate going to sleep with unflossed teeth, it leaves me uneasy. Also throughout the day, I always keep floss handy, if I eat something that gets trapped in my teeth. I have very tight spaces in between my teeth so I need a floss that will glide easily throughout my teeth. The floss must also be very thin to get through the spaces. A flavored floss is always preferable as well, to maintain a fresh breath!
The Radius Natural Floss comes in a cranberry flavor which is very unusual so I had to try it out! The brown flavor is actually sitting right on the floss because after you floss, the brown residue is removed from the area of floss that you actually use. I didn't really taste a strong cranberry flavor but I did taste a slight flavoring. I always start to floss at the back of my teeth towards my wisdom teeth and I could hardly get the floss through my spaces. I tried flossing after a few teeth and eventually gave up. The beeswax did not glide well and the floss was pretty thick. If you have large gaps between your teeth or your child is still growing in their teeth, this floss would work but if you have tight spaces, do not use this floss. I was a little disappointed in
Radius and the floss, considering its natural and thought it would be a great replacement for my brand named floss but I could not get it through my teeth. I wouldn't recommend this product for people who have tight spaces in between their teeth.
