What type of floss is better to use, waxed or unwaxed?
Any floss is better than no floss at all. Wax acts as a lubricant and can sometimes make flossing easier for those who have tight contacts. The wax residue can be left behind binding the floss together. Unwaxed floss tends to fray. As the fibers of the floss come apart, more of the plaque is removed and carried away.
