FAQ's
CareDent PerioTape 50m – 2nd generation PFAS free dental tape
CareDent PerioTape 50m is the second generation of the PerioTape range, rebuilt around an advanced UHMPE (Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene) fibre with a smooth impregnated microcrystalline wax coating. It glides through tight contacts and lifts plaque biofilm and trapped food from the areas a toothbrush can’t reach, with the strength to resist shredding, fraying and breakage.
The 50m spool is the everyday refill size — enough for several months of once-daily flossing — supplied in an easy-grip container with a flip-top lid, made from 100% recycled plastic.
What changed in generation 2?
CareDent moved PerioTape from PTFE to UHMPE in response to evolving Australian regulatory requirements and growing demand for PFAS-free alternatives. The result is a tape that’s stronger and smoother than the original, with no PTFE or PFAS materials — and packaging that cuts environmental impact without giving up performance.
Key benefits
- Efficient plaque and debris removal — lifts biofilm and trapped food from between teeth, supporting better oral hygiene and periodontal health
- Gentle on gum tissue — the flat tape profile and wax coating allow smooth passage between teeth, minimising tissue trauma
- Exceptional strength — UHMPE fibres resist shredding, fraying and breakage even through tight interproximal contacts
- PTFE and PFAS free — a cleaner choice for modern households and dental practices
- Sustainable packaging — floss container made from 100% recycled plastic
- 50m refill size — the value size for daily flossing at home
Who is CareDent PerioTape 50m for?
Suits all ages and everyday flossing. It’s the right pick if you floss daily and want the lowest cost per metre, if standard floss shreds or snaps between your back teeth, or if you’re actively moving your bathroom away from PFAS-containing products. It can be used with floss threaders to clean around bridges, implants and orthodontic wires.
How to use CareDent PerioTape 50m
- Wind — Break off about 45cm of tape and wind the ends around the middle finger of each hand. Pinch the tape between your thumbs and index fingers, leaving 2.5–5cm taut between them.
- Glide — Guide the tape between two teeth with a gentle side-to-side motion. Don’t snap it down onto the gum. Once through the contact, curve the tape into a C-shape against the side of one tooth.
- Slide — Move the tape up and down against the tooth surface and just under the gum line. Curve it against the neighbouring tooth and repeat, using a clean section of tape for each gap.
- Repeat — Work through the lower teeth the same way, using your index fingers to guide the tape into the contacts.
For best results
- Floss at least once a day, ideally before brushing
- Pair with a dentist-recommended toothbrush, toothpaste and mouthrinse
- Add a tongue cleaner to your routine for fresher breath

Is CareDent PerioTape PFAS free? Yes. The 2nd generation PerioTape is manufactured without PTFE or PFAS materials, using a UHMPE fibre instead.
Why did CareDent change the material? CareDent transitioned from PTFE to UHMPE in response to evolving Australian regulatory requirements and growing demand for PFAS-free alternatives. The Gen 2 tape is stronger and smoother than the original.
Is this tape waxed? Yes. Gen 2 PerioTape has an impregnated microcrystalline wax coating, which is what gives it its glide and comfort through tight contacts.
How long will 50m last? Around six months at roughly 45cm per session, once daily. It’s the everyday refill size — for travel or trial, the 4m mini is the better fit.
Is the packaging recyclable? The container is made from 100% recycled plastic. Check your local council’s kerbside guidelines for small rigid plastics before recycling it.
How often should I use it? At least once daily, or as directed by your dental professional.
