Evaluation Table
Thickness: 0.75mm
Thickness after expanded: 2.2mm
Expansion capacity:
Cleaning Effectiveness:
Durability:
Does the floss fray or break during use?
Stiffness :
The ideal softness is rated 5, slightly hard or soft is rated 4, and excessively hard or soft is rated 3.Overly hard dental floss may irritate the gums, while excessively soft dental floss may not effectively remove food debris from between the teeth. Stiffer dental floss is suitable for passing through braces.
Comfort:
Can it easily pass through the teeth gaps?
Ease of control:
Is it easy to grasp and control the floss?
Consistency in quality:
Is the floss consistent from start to end, as some floss may get thinner or lose its coating?
Flavor intensity:
Material:
If dental floss contains PTFE (also known as Teflon), it may include PFAS (perfluoroalkyl substances) during manufacturing. These chemicals are associated with health concerns. Although the use of PTFE dental floss has not been directly proven to cause cancer, there are still some safety concerns.
Package material:
Is it minimal, made of recyclable materials, and can the products be separated for recycling?

Final score
3.64 / 5
The floss swells up even when my hands are slightly damp.
Yeah!
It has great swelling ability and moderate softness. The scent is almost undetectable. Resembles cotton in texture despite being nylon.
Yikes!
The price increase in Taiwan is astonishing. In just a few years, it went up from NTD 59 to NTD 99 (but the exchange rate for JPY dropped from 0.27 to 0.21...).
