Dental Floss Market Segmentation:

Product Segment Analysis

Waxed floss segment is set to capture dental floss market share of over 53.4% by 2035, driven by the additional benefits it provides credited to the enzymes and essential oils that help in removing plaque. Furthermore, a polymer coating is also applied to the flossing thread to avoid shredding and facilitate plaque removal. According to a study by the National Library of Medicine 2023, it was estimated that the growth of both Gram (+) and (-) bacteria is inhibited after using mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs) and chitosan-coated dental floss. Dental tapes come in both waxed and unwaxed varieties, and they are usually broader and flatter than ordinary floss. Growth in this sector will fuel the dental equipment value in the near future.
