For instance, in the US, individuals spend almost USD 2 billion every year on various dental products.”

There has been a noticeable increase in preventive healthcare measures across the globe. More than 10% of adult mobile phone users globally have downloaded applications that track or monitor their health. The use of dental floss is effective in preventing interdental diseases such as gingivitis, gum decay, etc. Such diseases could lead to dental surgery, which would result in a far greater cost to a consumer than just buying floss.
