Dental floss is a cord of thin filaments used for interdental cleaning. It is manufactured using multiple nylon or Teflon filaments twisted together to create one much stronger strand. It is widely used to remove plaque, films of bacteria, and all food particles that get stuck between the teeth and are impossible to remove from the toothbrush. Dental floss comes in ribbon or string form, which can be waxed or un-waxed. Besides this, it is also available in flat and curved variants that are reusable or disposable. Flossing reduces the likelihood of tooth decay, cavity, periodontal disease, gingivitis, bad breath, oral cancer, and gum disease.

Dental Floss Market Trends:
The increasing prevalence of oral and dental disorders across the globe is creating a positive outlook for the market. Regular use of dental floss prevents infections and inflammation of the gums and bones that surround and support the teeth. In line with this, the rising consciousness among the masses regarding maintaining adequate oral hygiene and the growing demand for oral care products as a result of increasing oral health problems is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, the introduction of floss picks that are easier to maneuver and hold, especially for people with arthritis or dexterity problems, is providing an impetus to the market growth. Moreover, the growing number of adolescents and adults suffering from excessive plaque and dental cavities due to the consumption of junk food and sugary snacks and beverages is favoring the market growth. Additionally, the widespread utilization of waxed dental floss, as they contain essential oils and enzymes and assist in effective plaque removal and effortless cleaning, is positively influencing the market growth. Other factors, including rising expenditure capacities of consumers, promotional campaigns and launch of such products under famous oral care brands, easy product availability across e-commerce platforms, and the introduction of flavored dental floss, are anticipated to drive the market growth.
