Data on Children’s use of Floss
Research indicates that flossing habits in children have a 95% correlation to their mother’s and/or father’s flossing habits. Developing good flossing and brushing habits during childhood can have numerous long-term benefits for oral and overall health as individuals transition into adulthood.
Prevention of Tooth Decay
Regular brushing and flossing help remove plaque and food particles, reducing the risk of tooth decay and cavities. Establishing these habits early can lead to a lifetime of better health.
Prevention of Gum Disease
Proper oral hygiene helps prevent gum disease by removing bacteria and plaque that can lead to gingivitis and periodontitis. Consistent flossing reaches areas between teeth and along the gumline where brushing alone may not effectively clean.
Maintenance of Oral Health
Good oral hygiene habits learned in childhood tend to persist into adulthood. Individuals who establish these habits early are more likely to continue practicing them throughout their lives, leading to better overall oral health and potentially lower dental care costs.
Reduction of Bad Breath
Regular brushing and flossing help remove food particles and bacteria that can cause bad breath (halitosis), leading to fresher breath and improved confidence.
Prevention of Dental Issues
By preventing tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health problems, good oral hygiene habits can reduce the need for extensive dental treatments such as fillings, root canals, and periodontal therapy later in life.
Positive Impact on Overall Health
Oral health is closely linked to overall health, with poor oral hygiene associated with various systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and respiratoryinfections. By maintaining good oral hygiene habits, individuals can potentially reduce their risk of developing these health issues.
Parental Influence
Research has shown that parental involvement and modeling of oral hygiene behaviors play a significant role in shaping children's oral health habits. Children whose parents emphasize and support regular brushing and flossing are more likely to continue these habits into adulthood.
How it Works
Studies have found that children who receive regular dental check-ups and preventive care, including guidance on oral hygiene practices, are more likely to maintain good oral health habits as adults. Early exposure to dental care can instill positive attitudes toward oral health and encourage lifelong preventive behaviors.

Testimonials
Strawberry Purifloss
“I tell you, this floss works better than any floss I've ever used before! I love the strawberry flavor and it removes everything between my teeth the first time. The floss doesn't break either. It seems like the debris sticks to the floss. I'll never use any floss, but Purifloss!!!”
