The older Teflon floss had a tendency to get stuck between your teeth 
then snap violently into your gums.  I tried that a couple of times, 
spit out all the blood, and threw it in the trash.  Crest made it more 
fibrous so it doesn't snap out of tight spots.  Now it shreds and leaves 
bits of itself between your teeth.
