Plastic dental floss containers are used throughout the world, but plastic is polluting our oceans and landfills. Millions of containers are discarded annually, creating a global plastic epidemic. Dr. Tung's non-polluting, plastic-free dental floss dispenser can help change this trend. Made from paperboard, it can be recycled after use without harming wildlife or the environment. The eye-catching package is comfortable to use and slips easily into a pocket or purse, making it convenient to carry or use at home. The floss itself, manufactured via a patented process, expands during use and is coated with 100% vegetable wax, without petrochemical or animal ingredients.
