끝이 뾰족해서 휴대가 불편하군요
(Purchased with my own money, 15 times) Vitahalo Disposable Dental Floss
Twenty years ago, I started orthodontic treatment at a slightly later age than others.
On the day I first had my braces attached after the tooth extraction, I cried so much out of embarrassment, which was worse than the pain.
However, as a day or two passed, the discomfort felt much, much greater than the embarrassment.
It was so difficult to manage the food getting stuck between my braces that on days I ate out, I couldn't even open my mouth properly to smile, fearing that something might be lodged there.
So, I always carried a bag full of toothbrushes, interdental brushes, and a floss set, brushing my teeth and flossing twelve times a day. Back then, I used floss that was coiled up like a ball of yarn; while it was convenient to carry, wetting my hand between my braces and rubbing it back and forth was an incredibly difficult and strenuous task.
Then, the Y-shaped disposable dental floss the dentist handed me was a whole new world!!
From then on, use only Y-shaped dental floss.
And even now that my orthodontic treatment is over, I continue to take care of my teeth by using dental floss as an essential part of my brushing routine.
Assuming we brush our teeth three or four times a day, that amounts to about four packs a day. Since all four family members use it, the usage is truly enormous. That is why we always stock up on large quantities of dental floss.
Vitahalo disposable dental floss
600 pieces
7,000 to 8,000 won range
This is the amount my family of four uses for about a month.
Vitahalo comes in a really huge quantity, so if you buy just one packet a month, you can use it without worry.
The handle is made of polystyrene, so it is very durable. If it were too flexible, it would bend inside the mouth and be difficult to use, but since it is made of a sturdy material that doesn't bend, it seems very good.
The upper part is shaped like a Y and is sized to be inserted into every nook and cranny, even inside the molars.
The back part is pointed for use as a toothpick, allowing for thorough removal of any remaining foreign matter that was not properly removed.
merit
✿ Very affordable and generous capacity ✿
With an extra-large capacity of 600 pieces, it easily lasts a family of four for a month. Due to their disposable nature, it is easy to use them up quickly, but the low price allows you to use them with peace of mind. You can also conveniently purchase them via Rocket Delivery.
✿ Very good durability ✿
I have used many different brands of dental floss, but it was difficult to find a product where both the handle and the floss were sturdy. Often, the handle would bend too easily or the floss would break quickly, but with Vita Halo, the handle is sturdy and the floss never breaks. The durability seems absolutely amazing for the price.
disadvantage
✿ Thread thickness cannot be selected ✿
The rolled dental floss I used in the past allowed me to choose the thickness, and there were even mint-flavored varieties. It is somewhat disappointing that not only Vita Halo but also these Y-shaped flosses lack options for thickness or scent. Since the width of the interdental spaces varies from person to person, it would be very beneficial if the floss thicknesses were available in a wider variety.
✿ Inconvenient to carry ✿
The roll-up dental floss came in a small case, making it very convenient to carry around. However, since Vita Halo didn't come with a separate case, I carried it in a Ziploc bag for a while; because of the sharp end, the bag would tear every day. The pain of pricking my hand while taking it out was an added bonus. I happened to find a cotton swab case that fits perfectly and am currently using it, but I think I would be even more satisfied if a dental floss case were released alongside it.
