Online Dental Education Library
Dr. Doty and our team strive to improve the overall health of our patients by focusing first on diagnosing and then preventing or treating conditions associated with your teeth and gums. Please use our dental library to learn more about dental problems and treatments available. If you have questions or are ready to schedule an appointment, please contact us.
Dental floss comes in a variety of colors, materials and even flavors. Waxed varieties slide through the teeth, allowing people with extremely tight spaces to floss more easily. Popular flavors of floss include wintergreen and cinnamon. Waxed floss does tend to fray more than unwaxed floss.
A type of material called dental tape can be effective for people with large spaces between their teeth, or for people with bridge work.
Floss can be purchased in small self-dispensing boxes. Floss can also be purchased in special, single-use holders, which are useful for people who have a hard time wrapping floss around their fingers, including those with dexterity problems or arthritis.
