This in vitro study aimed to investigate the tensile strength and other parameters of various interdental floss types to provide insights into their mechanical properties. A selection of representative dental flosses, encompassing different structures and coatings, was subjected to a controlled experiment. Tensile strength measurements were conducted using a testing apparatus, assessing each floss’s ability to withstand forces during simulated use. Results indicated significant variability in tensile strength among the tested interdental flosses. The study also explored passage force and displacement of the force using a universal dental holder. Further research is warranted to explore the long-term implications of these mechanical properties on interproximal plaque removal and overall oral health.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"categories":[3326],"tags":[3340,3341,3343,3342],"affiliation":[],"contributor":[3339,3338],"journalissue":[3324],"class_list":["post-24088","article","type-article","status-publish","hentry","category-ann-stomatol-2025-vol-51-january-april","tag-dental-floss","tag-interproximal-devices","tag-proximal-contact","tag-tensile-strength","contributor-g-valentini","contributor-s-dagostino","journalissue-ann-stomatol-2025-vol-51-january-april"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nTENSILE STRENGTH AND OTHER MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF DENTAL FLOSS: AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY - LAB Publishers - Scientific Publisher<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"This in vitro study aimed to investigate the tensile strength and other parameters of various interdental floss types to provide insights into their mechanical properties.
