GUM® ORTHO Floss - Easy Plaque Removal Around Braces and Appliances

If you wear braces then you'll know that taking good care of your teeth – and especially flossing – can be a bit tricky. But it doesn’t have to be!

Our unique ORTHO line has been specially developed to help protect your teeth and gums throughout your orthodontic treatment. GUM ORTHO Floss features a thin, rigid end, so you can insert it easily under wires. This helps protect your mouth from oral problems by removing plaque and food hard-to-reach places.

Use a soft interdental brush, like the GUM TRAV-LER® to remove food and plaque from between teeth and around braces.

Tight spaces between teeth? Use GUM ORTHO Floss.

How to use GUM ORTHO Floss?

Move the floss up, down and back and forth to clean between teeth and gums. The thin, rigid end slides behind brace wires, which helps to insert the spongy part between teeth to sweep away food and plaque and clean where gums and teeth meet.

2 Step with GUM ORTHO Manual toothbrush and ORTHO Toothpaste

2. Brush your teeth

Directly after meals to keep food from getting stuck under the brackets and in the spaces between wires and your teeth.

The GUM ORTHO manual toothbrush, with its compact head and v-shaped bristles, easily cleans around braces.

For a superior clean*, discover the GUM SONIC ORTHO toothbrush. With a precision bristle design and gentle sonic vibrations, it cleans where a manual ortho brush can't reach.
Pair your toothbrush with GUM ORTHO toothpaste, a gel formula that easily flows around brackets. With fluoride and isomalt, it helps remineralize enamel, which is crucial for the prevention of white spot lesions.

*Tested in vitro vs. a manual orthodontic toothbrush.

3 Step with GUM ORTHO mouthwash

3. Rinse and Refresh

To keep your mouth clean and give it the extra protection it needs, swish with an alcohol-free, fluoride GUM ORTHO mouthwash to help prevent cavities and keep your breath minty fresh.
