The cleanest floss your mouth and microbiome will ever meet.
Most floss is coated in Teflon. Ours isn't. To slide between teeth, conventional floss is usually coated in PTFE, the same compound behind nonstick pans and one of the PFAS compounds known as forever chemicals. Your gums are absorptive tissue, so what sits against them twice a day is worth paying attention to.
Fygg starts over with two ingredients your body already knows. Pure silk gives a natural glide with no plastic and no coating. Bee propolis, the resin honeybees use to protect their hive, has been studied for antibacterial and gum-supporting properties, and a little reaches the gumline every time you floss.
It cleans between teeth without disrupting the balance of your mouth. And because it is a natural protein fiber, it breaks down when you are finished instead of lingering as plastic waste.

Silk, Propolis
What's on your floss
Glide has to come from somewhere.
Floss has to slip through a contact point tighter than a sheet of paper. Conventional floss solves that with a coating, and that coating is usually PTFE, the same compound behind nonstick pans and one of the PFAS group known as forever chemicals.
Silk solves it differently. The fiber is fine and strong enough on its own, so the glide comes from the material rather than from something added on top of it.
Because floss is drawn against gum tissue and held there twice a day, what coats the strand is worth knowing. Fygg contains no PFAS of any kind.
Before you switch
Questions worth asking
Will silk floss shred between tight teeth?
Silk is a remarkably strong natural fiber, and ours is spun to hold up through tight contacts. If you have very tight spots or a sharp edge on a filling or crown, guide it through with a gentle sawing motion rather than snapping it down. That is good technique with any floss.
Why does PTFE in floss matter?
PTFE is the compound behind Teflon and belongs to the PFAS group, chemicals that resist breaking down and can accumulate in the body over time. It is widely used to coat floss because it glides. Since floss is drawn against gum tissue every day, some people would rather not introduce it at all. Fygg contains no PFAS of any kind.
What does the bee propolis actually do?
Propolis is the resin honeybees collect to seal and protect their hive. It has been studied for antibacterial and gum-supporting properties. Infused into the strand, a small amount reaches the gumline as you floss, so a routine step also supports the tissue it touches.
Is it vegan?
No. Silk and bee propolis are both animal-derived, so this floss is not vegan. We would rather tell you plainly than have you find out after it arrives.
Can I use it with sensitive gums?
Yes. There are no harsh coatings, flavors, or dyes, and propolis is there specifically for gum support. If you have a known allergy to bees or bee products, check with your dentist first.
Unflavored? Won't I miss the mint?
Free & Clear means no added flavor and no dye. Most floss mint is synthetic and it is masking the plastic, not cleaning anything. Silk tastes like nothing, which is the point. Your toothpaste can handle the mint.
Where is it made?
The silk is Seri.co certified and made in Italy, meeting global standards for purity, sustainability, and safety. It is naturally biodegradable at the end of its life.
