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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFygg 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt cleans between teeth without disrupting the balance of your mouth.

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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does PTFE in floss matter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePTFE 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the bee propolis actually do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePropolis 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it vegan?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNo. 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use it with sensitive gums?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYes. 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnflavored? Won't I miss the mint?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFree \u0026amp; 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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere is it made?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe silk is Seri.co certified and made in Italy, meeting global standards for purity, sustainability, and safety.
