Floss pick and toothpick in one piece
Long lasting Scope mint flavor on the floss
Maker says the current floss slides up to 50% easier in tight spaces than its earlier Fresh Mint picks
Made without PTFE since Oral-B reformulated Glide

A handy, widely sold floss pick for people who like a strong mint taste and want picks to keep in a car, desk or bag. Oral-B has switched Glide from PTFE to a nylon based floss, and since then a share of long time buyers report shredding and breaking, so anyone with very tight teeth may prefer a pick built for that.

How it compares

Plackers Micro Line Floss Picks, Intense MintBetter if shredding is the main worry, since the maker sells its polyethylene floss as resistant to stretching and shredding$

Plackers Gentle Line Floss PicksBetter for sensitive gums, with a soft floss the maker says slides easily between teeth$
