Migliaccio & Rathod LLP is investigating whether certain Oral-B Glide dental floss products and similar store-brand flosses sold through Amazon and major retailers contain fluorinated materials or PFAS-related compounds that were not adequately disclosed to consumers.
What Consumers Report
Consumers report purchasing Oral-B Glide and similar “compare to Glide” dental floss products based on marketing emphasizing:
- Smooth use between tight teeth.
- Shred-resistant dental tape.
- Daily oral-care use.
- Premium floss performance.
- Safety and comfort for routine use.
Potentially affected products may include:
- Oral-B Glide Deep Clean.
- Oral-B Glide Pro-Health.
- Oral-B Glide Scope Mint.
- Amazon or store-brand flosses marketed as comparable to Glide.
- Other smooth dental tapes marketed for tight spaces.
Consumers may not expect products intended for daily use inside the mouth to contain undisclosed fluorinated materials or PFAS-related compounds.
Why Consumers Should Be Concerned
PFAS-related claims in oral-care products may be material to consumers because dental floss is used directly in the mouth, often every day. If products were marketed as premium, smooth, and safe for daily oral use without disclosing fluorinated materials, consumers may have paid more than they otherwise would have.
Potential claims may include:
- Failure to disclose material ingredient information.
- False advertising.
- Consumer protection violations.
- Breach of warranty.
Signs You May Be Affected
- You purchased Oral-B Glide or a comparable smooth dental tape floss.
- You purchased the product through Amazon or a major retailer.
- You relied on claims about smoothness, shred resistance, or daily oral-care use.
- You were not informed that the product may contain fluorinated materials or PFAS-related compounds.
