Power Floss
- Supercharged, anti-plaque dental floss for all family
Final Decision Maker: All family
Power Floss -- the supercharged dental floss that scares the plaque out of cavity-causing bacteria Your overall health is linked to the health of your teeth. Flossing is well known as an effective way to prevent cavities and improve gum and tooth health, but are you really getting what you need from your current dental floss?
Power Floss goes beyond mint-flavor by being the only floss to provide the plaque-busting power of Smile Shield -- a patented natural compound that keeps plaque-building bacteria from sticking to your teeth, resulting in a better cleaning than normal floss. No stick means no plaque, and no plaque means you can feel better about what you are doing for your teeth.
