Colgate Total Tartar Control Mint Dental Floss

Breakdown

3 ingredients to avoid

Colgate Total Tartar Control Mint Dental Floss scores 57/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Colgate Total Tartar Control Mint Dental Floss lists 5 ingredients, starting with Polypropylene, Microcrystalline Wax, Flavour, Tetrasodium Pyrophosphate and Sucralose. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 57/100 Colgate Total Tartar Control Mint Dental Floss lands mid-scale — below the typical score in floss, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in floss is Desert Essence Tea Tree Oil Dental Floss Waxed at 100/100.
