Everything You Need to Know

Flossing with appliances like implants, bridges, braces, or bonded retainers isn’t always easy. The AutoFlosser was built to change that. This page answers the most common questions about how it works, who it helps, and why it’s a smarter way to protect your oral health.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is The AutoFlosser?

The AutoFlosser is an oral care device designed for people who have difficulty flossing because of implants, bridges, braces, or bonded retainers. It helps guide floss into areas that are hard to reach with traditional flossing methods.

How do I use The AutoFlosser?

Insert the AutoFlosser floss strand into the handle, place the soft tip where you want to floss, and turn the wheel to guide the floss under your dental appliance.

How do I clean The AutoFlosser?

The AutoFlosser can be taken apart for cleaning. Rinse the parts well, let them dry if needed, and reassemble the device for continued use.

When FLOSSing Feels Too Tight

If The AutoFlosser feels tight or difficult to insert, try the following:

  1. Review the user manual to confirm proper technique.
  2. Practice with the device outside of your mouth first.
  3. Try both FLOSS versions to see which works better for your spacing.
  4. Bring The AutoFlosser to your dentist or hygienist to see whether a small adjustment may help.
  5. Keep practicing, as it usually becomes easier over time.
Is The AutoFlosser effective for people with braces?

Yes. The AutoFlosser is designed to help people with braces clean around brackets and wires more easily than standard flossing methods.

Will it work with bridges?

Yes. The AutoFlosser is built to help floss under dental bridges where regular floss can be difficult to use.

Is it good for bonded retainers?

Yes. The AutoFlosser can help you floss around bonded retainers and reach the spaces that are usually difficult to clean.

Will it work with an implant?

Yes. The AutoFlosser is designed to help floss around implants and reach beneath areas where regular flossing can be difficult.

What happens if the floss gets stuck?

If floss gets stuck inside the device, simply take it apart to remove the floss safely.

Can I use any floss with The AutoFlosser?

No. The AutoFlosser is designed to work specifically with AutoFlosser FLOSS strands, which include a precision tip that helps guide the floss into place.

Where can I buy refill floss?

Refill floss is available on the website as a one-time purchase and can also be ordered through a recurring option.

Which FLOSS should I choose — STIFF-GLIDE or THIN-GLIDE?

STIFF-GLIDE FLOSS has a slightly thicker and firmer end that works well for wider spaces and ALL-ON-X implant bridges. THIN-GLIDE FLOSS has a slightly thinner and softer end that works well for tighter spaces, tooth-supported bridges, braces, and bonded retainers.

Are replacement tips available?

Yes. Replacement tips are expected to be available for purchase on the website.

Do you offer a guarantee?

Yes. A guarantee is available through the active floss-thread subscription. If the AutoFlosser handle stops working, a replacement can be provided under that subscription offering.

How does this compare to water flossing?

Traditional floss physically removes plaque from the tooth surface, which is why many users prefer this method for more direct cleaning compared with water flossing alone.

Can my dentist help me use The AutoFlosser better?

Yes. In some cases, dentists can create a small notch in implant bridges to make flossing with the AutoFlosser even easier.
