Previous floss discussion
Last time it was posted at this price in March 2016

Just spotted this at Woolworths Burwood Westfield NSW.

I would imagine this is Nationwide because it's listed on Woolworths online as well.

Personally I find there's a slight difference between the 100m and 50m, with the 50m one being slightly more grippy.

For anyone that is visiting Asia (e.g. Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China), I personally would actually recommend Watson's own brand of dental floss which is the best I've used so far. Watson's is similar to Priceline. I haven't found an equivalent in Australia yet. It's also actually slightly cheaper (using the Malaysia retail price of RM7.50 for 50m).

          You'd hope so. Pretty sure that's its home base.

    Thanks OP, good for flossing my…   bill.

  • lainey13 on 18/01/2017 - 23:14

    Oh man, TAPE is where its at! You haven't lived until you have slid a piece of tape floss between your teeth instead of shoving the boulder like normal floss through your gaps!

    I'll post this as a comment rather than part of the description as I feel it kind of detracts from the main deal too much

    List of overseas locations with Watson's:

    • Hong Kong
    • Indonesia
    • Malaysia
    • Singapore
    • Taiwan
    • China
    • Korea
    • Macau
    • Philippines
    • Thailand
    • Turkey
    • Ukraine

    Note that it seems the dental floss I was recommending is not available in every Watson's! Can't find it on the Watson's Ukraine website, for example.

    • rictee on 19/01/2017 - 20:34

      I went to buy 4x 50m Watson's (coincidentally I'm currently in Malaysia). They scanned at RM7.50 ea. RM5.30 is actually for the 10m. So the same length Oral B on sale would be around $0.20 cheaper!

      • illumination on 19/01/2017 - 20:48

        Oh god I'm so sorry. I didn't see the length. It looks like they've changed their designs of the 50m so I didn't recognise it. The 10m one has retained the old design (which looks much better imo)

        Did you still buy it? Hope you like it at least.. I'd still buy it at RM7.30 over the Oral B one :P

        • rictee on 19/01/2017 - 21:03

          Yeah I did get it.. Still cheap. Will try the floss tonight (much needed after all the scrumptious food here). My usual is Oral B so will write a mini review after.

          @rictee: Ok compared to the Oral B Essentials, I think the Watsons were able to clean better and have a nicer flossing feel which I can't quite explain.
          I have tried the Colgate ones but did not like them as they were too wide and seemed harder to maneuver - that's why I've been using Oral B. Now to me, Watsons has a good size and feel.
          Oh and they're on the cheaper end too which may add to my positive impressions.

          Disclaimer: I have only tried a few products (above) and these comments are based on my personal experience only.

        • illumination on 20/01/2017 - 09:35

          @rictee:

          Sounds like a positive experience. I can't quite tell if you have a preference between Oral B and Watson's, but can tell you prefer both of them to Colgate though.

          I hope Watson's didn't also change their product with the change in packaging.

  • bluesky on 18/01/2017 - 23:44

    Just wondering, is the Watson floss unwaxed? They discontinued Oral B unwaxed floss here; nowadays all Oral B floss are waxed.

    • illumination on 18/01/2017 - 23:46

      I'm actually not sure… I don't think it is though? I'd guess waxed would look shinier?

      • bluesky on 18/01/2017 - 23:50

        Well, the Oral B unwaxed, and waxed look about the same. But the waxed one is more smooth and slippery. Whereas the unwaxed one provides more friction against the tooth during flossing.

        I will get a Watson one to try at the next opportunity. Thanks for mentioning it.

    Oral-B Glide Pro-Health® Deep Clean Mint Floss is the ticket…Only in Chem Warehouse now

  • DentalPlan on 19/01/2017 - 03:01

    Anyone recommend a thick waxed floss? Best one I've found so far is Woolworths brand (with fluoride), slides through really silky but my local doesn't stock it anymore.

  • mmkardart on 19/01/2017 - 05:16

    How does the Oral B Dental Floss compare to Colgate Total Waxed Dental Floss?

    Haha! I stock up with Watson's floss everytime I'm back in Malaysia :)

    Which is in three weeks.. I've almost run out!

  • djbst on 19/01/2017 - 09:39

    I prefer dental floss sticks.. I'm not sure what they are called, but as I could remember I bought a packet of them for about $2 from Reject Shop which is about half the price of Woolies

    • bluesky on 19/01/2017 - 15:01

      interdental brush? $2 is cheap.

    • lostn on 19/01/2017 - 21:43

      Tried them before. They are rough. I scare I'll damage my teeth.

  • DealhunterMelbourne on 19/01/2017 - 11:07

    Such flossing. Much minted wax! Wow.

  • EmilyP on 19/01/2017 - 12:24

    The Satin one is my favorite because it's wider and removes more (grossssss)stuff between your teeth.

  • lostn on 19/01/2017 - 21:39

    I like satin the best. Regular floss hurts when coiled around your finger. It's like trying to cut your finger off.

    I bought 6 last time and still have a few, so I don't need any this time around.
