How to Use
Pull out about 18 inches (45 cm) of floss and wind the ends around your middle fingers, leaving a short working section. Guide it gently between two teeth with a back-and-forth motion, curve it into a C shape against one tooth, and slide it carefully just below the gumline, then repeat on the neighboring tooth. Move to a fresh section as you go and floss once a day, ideally before brushing. Keep the dispensers closed and store them in a dry place away from heat.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is Oral-B Glide Advanced Bacteria Defense floss for?
It suits adults and teens who want a smooth floss that slides easily between tight or crowded teeth and around crowns, bridges, and braces without shredding. The micro-textured strand is designed to clean plaque along the gumline. If you have dental work that catches floss, use gentle pressure and ask your dentist which floss type fits best.
How do I use Oral-B Glide floss correctly?
Take about 18 inches (45 cm), wrap the ends around your middle fingers, and guide the floss gently between two teeth with a back-and-forth motion. Curve it into a C shape against each tooth and slide it just under the gumline without snapping. Use a clean section for each gap and floss once daily, ideally before brushing.
What is different about the Advanced Bacteria Defense version of Glide?
This Glide variant uses a micro-textured strand and a coating that the package lists as containing flavor and cetylpyridinium chloride, an ingredient also used in some mouth rinses. Standard Glide Pro-Health floss focuses on the smooth, shred-resistant strand alone. Both share the same easy slide between tight teeth and the same compact dispenser format.
What sizes and pack options are available for this floss?
Real Prime Deals sells the retail 6 count package as a Single item. Each of the six dispensers holds 48.1 yd (44 m), for 288.7 yd (264 m) in total, which covers roughly a year of daily flossing for one person or several months for a household. Keep spare dispensers sealed in a dry cabinet until needed.
