Dr. Tungs Double-sided PerioSticks X-Thin, Fit Comfortably Between Teeth, Stimulate Gums and Remove Plaque and Food Particles, 100 Count. Pack of 6

Doesn't seem to be "x thin" but perhaps they changed the product with packaging.

Note that other reviewers who state the count is off are correct - my box is also short, though by only five sticks. Otherwise, great perio sticks for those of us with close-together teeth! Other brands proved too broad to fit between my teeth; these mostly fit. Well made. I would buy again despite the careless (and a bit sly?) undercount. A note for Dr. Tung: the undercount is only an honest mistake if there are also OVER-counts, which I have not yet encountered. Just sayin'.

Admittedly, toothpick usage is oddly not a life skill I excel at (it’s a real thing...trust me.). Despite that, the unique shape and flexibility of these helps to prevent me from stabbing myself repeatedly in the gums in an effort to dislodge errant food particles that my tongue invariably finds and worries after food consumption. I first got these for my mum (an inveterate toothpick pro) and they are her absolute favorite for all aforementioned reasons and the light flavor. I get the pack of them not only for value but so I can gift them out to my friends who love a toothpick (and don’t wreck their gums in the process). And pretty much anything Dr. Tung’s makes is rad (Seriously. Their tongue scraper is totally choice...another weird but oddly thoughtful gift I regularly give to people.). I very seldom, if ever, give five-star reviews for anything so my four-star review of this is pretty for reals. Light, flexible but not fragile, effective, and refreshing...

As a dental hygienist for 43 years I love using this product on my teeth and recommending it to my patients

So far have not found anything to dislike

Everyone who has ever used one of these knows they're the best at doing the job. Easily gets between a lot of teeth and removes lettuce and anything else that gets stuck.

They are thin but strong enough not to shred when you use them. They are almost like using a skinny toothbrush between your teeth. If you use the tip to follow your gum line plus scrub between your teeth your hygienist will be amazed. I am a toothpicker more than a flosser, and my hygienist, dentist and myself are very happy with these. They also come in a cute little metal box that slides open. The only thing that could be better is the pricing. (Also, there is no 'flavor' other than wood so I couldn't really rate that).

I bought these for my wife at Amazon because she was having trouble finding them locally. She says they are the best tool for cleaning between teeth and very good for gum massage. She has used this effective dental tool for many years and recommends them highly.

I have used toothpicks to pick out food debris that has gotten stuck in my teeth but didn'tdo a great job. These are shaped to get into tight corners and do a good job. They are not lacedwith chemicals that are not in the best interest of anyone to place into their mouth. Dr. Tung'sare clean from any form of coating. That is important to me. The reason I have given them 4 starsand not 5 is because of the cost. No other reason.

My fault - I purchase "extra thin" (although I think that's all I could find at the time) and they are too flimsy for me. One genuine complaint is that the otherwise very nice case often catches a stick such that you have to force the lid open, breaking that stick.

I wanted thin sticks but, to be honest, they are actually thinner than expected. However, they are good quality and do the job. I f you are after really thin sticks then these are for you!

quello che cercavo era un prodotto sottile da sostituire il filo interdentale questi sono perfetti sottili passano nei denti piu stretti ma, quasi troppo sottili tendono ad ammorbidirsi velocemente e le punte si piegano, prezzo elevato ma non ho trovato niente di simile e piu economico.

Funziona bene, anche alla prima esperienza. Non graffia le gengive, non si spezza, non punge ed è facile da usare. Chissà perchè questi sottilissimi legnetti (credo di betulla) in Italia non li ho mai visti, tanto meno il nostro medico. Un ottimo prodotto per aiutarci nell'igiene dentale.
