For those with problems using regular floss gum eezthru flossers might be a good option

Eezthru flossers use a type of floss which slides between teeth more smoothly and doesnt shred as easily

With some flossers the floss becomes loose and starts to sag after a couple of passes but with eezthrus the tension of the floss remains fairly stiff even after repeated usage

Eezthru flossers are available with regular or mint flavored floss
