Yes, GO2 Dentagenie Silver Antibacterial Flosspyx can be used by older children and teens as part of their daily oral care routine. However, for children under 10 years of age, we recommend using the product under adult supervision to ensure safe and proper use. The floss picks are designed for gentle, effective cleaning, but care should always be taken to prevent improper handling or misuse.

Nano silver (silver nanoparticles or AgNPs) has strong antibacterial properties that make it effective in reducing harmful bacteria in the mouth. In GO2 Dentagenie floss, nano silver is infused into the floss to help kill bacteria on contact during use.

Here’s how it works:

• The silver nanoparticles attach to bacterial cells in your mouth and disrupt their structure, damaging their cell walls.
  
• They also interfere with the bacteria’s ability to grow and reproduce, essentially stopping them from spreading.
  
• Additionally, silver nanoparticles can prevent bacteria from forming biofilms—the sticky layers of bacteria that lead to plaque and bad breath.

This means that every time you floss, the nano silver helps neutralise bacteria, supporting cleaner spaces between your teeth and promoting better oral health. It’s an easy, extra layer of protection in your daily dental care routine.
