Question 1

The samples the dentist gives are great. the sane product from amazon breaks constantly. it takes 6 or more picks for each cleaning. help!

Accepted Answer

Some break, some don't.  Mine come from the dentist (free samples) and others come from various stores.  
These are thin, fragile little things.  A tiny bit too much pressure = SNAP.  Sometimes one may last the Whole Mouth, other times two or three.
If you have some teeth that are really tight, then odds are it's a strong chance it will SNAP if pressed too hard/quickly.

...some even have the "colored stuff" break off and have to spit them out.  Not 100% Quality Control for items this low tech / low cost.
They do make sturdier ones (I forget the part number) with a ..larger handle... but those cost extra $$$$ (higher quality = more $$$s)

Question 2

Will the soft pick cause a wider gap between teeth or cause receding gums? I would like to purchase this because my daughter has braces. Thanks!

Accepted Answer

No. These Soft Picks are for the removal of food particles and dental plaque where gum disease often starts and where toothbrushes alone cannot reach. Thank you.

Question 3

How can I get Amazon to send to Manufacturerer for explanation. These picks are weak and don't work!

Accepted Answer

You have to reach out to Amazon. You also can leave a review on the site.

Question 4

How many picks fit in the travel pack?

Accepted Answer

One strip contains 10 picks. I typically fold 2 strips in half for travel pack=20 picks. For long trips, I pack 2-3 travel packs. The company includes a travel pack in each bubble pack;  I always have more than enough of the packs.
