Q: Has this product changed? I ordered what’s pictured, but it arrived with “new” printed on the box and no longer says “Glide threader floss” just “threader floss.” It’s also made of cotton like fibers that look like they’ll snag on my wire! Very annoying!
submitted by anothermama - 1 year ago
A: Exactly what I found. Wish I would’ve read this before I purchased. The packaging is nice with a colored threader on each end and multiple contained in each envelope. But the floss itself snags and makes fingernails on chalkboard sounds and feels terrible between my teeth.
submitted byTallJenny - 8 months agoA: Yes. It had changed and the new version is absolute garbage.
submitted byMommaUT - 1 year agoA: They definitely changed it and not for the better. The old pro-health threader floss was way better than this new threader floss that shreds and gets caught on braces.
submitted byScreenname - 1 year agoA: Yes, it has changed from a glide gloss with a threader into a woven gloss with a threader. It’s an awful product and I hope they bring back the old version.
submitted byWburke - 10 months agoA: this is AWFUL! can’t believe they are saying they haven’t changed it. ummmm. yes they have. and it’s AWFUL!! what a waste
submitted byBirzy - 8 months agoA: Absolutely changed, cheap plastic now. Never again
submitted byCHANGED FORMULA TO TRASH - 9 months agoA: Oral B changed the product but kept the UPC bar code the same. Very deceptive for Oral B to switch the product and claim it’s the same. The new product is just a more expensive version of their Super Floss. It’s awful.
submitted byDisappointed Flosser - 1 year agoA: What "Dentist Recommended" this and what dental school did they attend? I do not recommend, unless you want to spend bonus time with your hygenist detangling this trash from your braces.
submitted byTake care warning - 11 months agoA: Worst product ever designed in the history of floss. Whoever made this needs to be fired. I really hope that OralB is bringing back the regular flossers. This was a catastrophic FAIL!!
submitted byMyFullTimeFamily - 1 year agoA: It’s definitely changed. And changed for the worse. I used the original for years because it’s the only thing that worked around my implants without snagging and shredding. This stuff is a nightmare. It got caught and I had to use tweezers to get it out more than once. And I swear some got stuck and I ended up with soreness until it worked its way out. IMO it is not a safe product.
submitted byDee - 3 months agoA: We haven't made any recent changes to this floss, so we'd recommend contacting Target directly via the number below for assistance regarding your order. 1-800-440-0680

Q: What flavor is this floss?
submitted by NatalieS - 2 years ago
A: This floss is unflavored.
submitted byOral-B - 2 years agoBrand expertA: No flavor, but don’t believe the stars that’s been given to it. It had higher ratings for the PREVIOUS style of flossing but they have changed it sometime in August 2024. Now the new flossing is completely useless. There are no good reviews since August 20th…therefore, it tack the version onto the previous ratings are MISLEADING! Shame on you Oral B.
submitted byLmum89 - 1 year ago
Q: Why, why, why did you change the formulation on this floss?? It's absolutely terrible.
submitted by MLMPLS - 8 months ago
A: We're always looking for ways to improve our products. With this change, our floss is softer and gentle and uses nylon and a soft, elastic material that offers triple action cleaning. It's also more durable and resists against tearing in use. We're sorry you're not a fan, and we'd like to talk about this. Please call us at (800) 566-7252.

Used to be great
The previous design was amazing. This new design is horrible. It breaks, and gets stuck in your teeth. It's way to thick, too. I'm extremely dissappointed with the change.

This new version is absolutely terrible. I loved the old version, and I used the new version once and threw the rest away. I need to find a brand that is similar to the old version!

We're always improving floss materials to ensure we deliver the best products. As a result, we've transitioned to a new microtextured floss fiber that's still strong, shred-resistant, gentle on gums, and cleans easily around dental work. We're sorry to hear that you're not a fan of our new Threader Floss. We'll be sure to share with our team that you'd like to see the previous floss version make a return. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we'd like to learn more about your experience and what didn't meet expectations. When you have a moment, please give us a call at 1-800-566-7252, 9 am-6 pm EST, Monday-Friday.

“New” version is unacceptable
Very unhappy with the new version. This product shreds, breaks, and leaves fibers trapped in between teeth. I’m currently fighting to try and gently remove fibers that have been trapped between my back molars for over a day now. You already had a “fluffly” threader/flosser version available for those who prefer that type of floss, so I’m confused as to why you felt you needed to add a second. Swing and a miss on this one, R & D.

We recommend you stop using this floss due to your experience. We did reformulate our Threader floss in order to meet forthcoming regulatory guidelines.

Bring Back The Original!
This is, without a doubt, the poorest excuse for threader floss and I would give it a zero if possible. Whoever decided the original Glide Pro-Health threader floss should be replaced with this needs to be tossed out the door at P&G. Bring back the original Glide Pro-Health threader floss!

We appreciate you taking the time to leave your review, and we’re sorry to hear you’re unhappy with the new fiber on our Threader Floss. As you’ve noticed, we’ve transitioned to a new microtextured floss fiber that’s still strong and shred-resistant. However, we’ll be sure to share with the rest of our team that you’d like to see the old version become available again. As a recommendation, we suggest giving our Super Floss a try, as it wasn’t involved in the new fiber change. It has a stiffened threader end that enables you to floss under appliances like braces and bridges, spongy floss to help clean around wide spaces, and regular floss to remove plaque under the gum line. We value your feedback, and we’d love to gather some more information so we can further help you and our Quality Team. Please give us a call at (800) 566-7252.

Trash
I would give it 0 stars if I could. This product is a complete waste of money. It’s a terrible replacement and doesn’t work for what I needed. On top of that, it’s a waste of time having to go back and get something else that actually works. I hope I can return it and get my money back.

Terrible replacement product - "not usable"
I would give it no stars if I could. This is a terrible replacement to the Glide Pro Health. Bring back the GLIDE threaders this new floss is too thick to use between bridges. It shreds and is almost impossible to remove the residual shredded threads. Had to find a pair of tweezers. I have discarded the three boxes I had bought. PLEASE go back to the original

Wish I could give it -5 stars. These are nowhere near the old version. This floss is so flimsy. I had to throw the whole package away because it’s useless.

go back to the old product
I always used the GLIDE individually wrapped threader floss to go around my implants. I can't find them anymore and I tried your new product and I think it is terrible. It shreads in my teeth and leaves string in-between my teeth. I want the old GLIDE back.

CattyAnn, we’re sorry to hear about your experience with our Threader Floss. Please be assured that safety and quality are our top priorities, and all our products undergo thorough evaluation to ensure they’re safe when used as directed and perform to the highest standards. We recommend discontinuing use of the product if the floss becomes stuck in your teeth. The new microtextured floss fibers are soft and gentle on your gums while effectively cleaning around dental work, making it an excellent addition to your flossing routine. When using this product, wind the floss around your fingers to create slight tension; this tension should help to avoid snagging. Your feedback is invaluable and will be shared with our Safety and Quality team. Additionally, we will inform them that you’d like to see the previous version of Threader Floss return. We’d love to assist you further and gather more details. Please call us at (800) 566-7252.

Useless
I used the old version and loved it. However, this version is like trying to use yarn to floss your teeth with. I couldn’t even use it on a single tooth, and it got stuck in between my retainer and teeth. It was literally useless and I just threw it away. It also seemed pretty deceitful to use the exact same packaging but changing the entire makeup of the new version. I’m really disappointed. The other version was great, please bring those back!!

New is NOT better, do not waste your money
They changed the product, and it’s horrible. This is no longer a “gliding” floss, it’s a cotton/foam floss that is thick and for those with permanent retainers or braces, gets stuck in between your teeth or brackets. If the change is due to cost savings, I would rather pay more for a product that works than pay at all for an inferior product. Please bring back the former design/materials, it’s the only thing that worked for many of us.

We're so sorry you didn't have a better experience with the new microtextured Oral-B Glide Threader Floss, but appreciate your feedback. Because consumer safety is our top priority, we'd recommend that you stop using this product and set any remaining flosses aside in case our Safety Team wants to give them a closer inspection. If you call us at (800) 566-7252, we'll gather your contact information and be happy to make this up to you.
