Long's drugs was carrying "Hi-Tech" floss, which I believed to be 
identical, but lower in price, to the Glide.  Then Longs started 
carrying "Superslip" in a nearly identical dispenser, but I believe it 
is actually made by Crest since it shreds so easy. When I can find a 
Long's that carries the "Hi-Tech", I buy it.

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.

Got some Leader Brand Dental Floss - "Mint Advanced Slide",
It is as good as the old Glide - but it's very thin, too thin,
but at least it does not break off between my teeth!

I just bought brytonPick at Meijer for a discount...its pretty cool
stuff, great alternative to regular floss, and it wont shred between
teeth..its a hi-tech flosser...check it out if you have interest, and
Meijer has it on sale if you have them in your area...

That looks interesting, but it's not Dental Floss, it's kind of
a travel alternative to floss.

A bit off the original subject, but I want to mention that I bought some 
Radius Natural Silk floss at Whole Foods. Oh, what a mistake! Way too 
stiff and hard to use.  I guess I was thinking that silk shirts were so 
nice and supple, so the floss would slip between teeth real easy. nope!
