Davids Expanding Dental Floss Refillable Dispenser — A Deeper Clean Between Every Tooth, With Zero Compromise on Sustainability
For those who demand more from their oral care ritual, Davids Expanding Dental Floss addresses the two most overlooked gaps in dental hygiene: insufficient plaque contact and throwaway plastic waste. Its 250+ woven polyester strands bloom on contact to increase surface area, gripping debris and biofilm from the interdental space with precision that standard floss simply cannot replicate. Infused with cocoa butter, vegan wax, and natural mint essential oils, each pass glides effortlessly while leaving a clean, fresh finish — and nano-Hydroxyapatite works quietly behind the scenes to remineralise enamel in the areas your toothbrush cannot reach. The refillable dispenser system is the conscious choice that refuses to sacrifice performance for principle.
| Ingredient | INCI Name | Concentration | Function | Skin Benefit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nano-Hydroxyapatite | Hydroxyapatite (nano) | Mid | Remineralising agent | Deposits calcium phosphate into micro-fissures and exposed enamel surfaces in hard-to-reach interdental zones, strengthening enamel and reducing sensitivity |
| Cocoa Butter | Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter | Mid | Emollient / Lubricant | Conditions the floss strand for smooth, friction-free glide between tight contacts; reduces gum irritation during use |
| Vegan Wax | Plant-derived wax (specific source not disclosed) | High | Coating / Film-former | Encases multifilament strands to prevent shredding, aid smooth insertion, and carry active ingredients to the interdental surface |
| Natural Mint Essential Oil | Mentha Piperita (Peppermint) Oil or Mentha Viridis (Spearmint) Leaf Oil | Low–Trace | Flavourant / Antimicrobial | Delivers fresh-breath perception post-use; mint oils carry mild antimicrobial properties that complement mechanical plaque removal |
| Recycled Polyester Multifilament | Polyethylene Terephthalate (recycled) | High | Structural substrate | 250+ woven strands expand on compression to maximise surface contact area with tooth and gingival margin for superior debris capture |
Unlike monofilament or standard waxed floss, Davids' multifilament polyester strand physically expands when compressed between teeth, creating a broader surface area that mechanically disrupts and lifts plaque biofilm and food debris from the interdental sulcus and along the gingival margin. The vegan wax and cocoa butter coating reduce friction coefficient, enabling the floss to pass through tight contacts without snapping or traumatising soft tissue. Nano-Hydroxyapatite — structurally identical to the mineral composition of tooth enamel — is delivered directly to interproximal surfaces where toothbrush bristles cannot reach, integrating into early enamel lesions and supporting remineralisation at a crystallographic level. Daily use synergistically reduces conditions that promote bacterial proliferation: removing substrate for acid-producing bacteria lowers demineralisation risk, while improved gingival margin cleaning reduces the inflammatory triggers associated with early-stage periodontal disease.
