Dr. Carlos Colon-Bengoa, DDS

Dr. Carlos Colon-Bengoa began his postsecondary education in Orlando at the University of Central Florida. Here, he would earn his undergraduate’s degree before pursuing continuing education. That pursuit would include graduation from Dental School at the University of Iowa. Dr. Colon-Bengoa's commitment to excellence extended further as he sought additional training through a residency program at the University of Florida.

For the past 14 years, Dr. Carlos Colon-Bengoa has been a dedicated healthcare professional serving the Central Florida community. During this time, he was introduced to UFloss and became an immediate believer.

Why Dr. Carlos Colon-Bengoa recommends UFloss

Unlike other products on the market, UFloss’s patented design and micro-cratered surface was found to be highly effective in plaque removal. Its lightweight and flexible material ensures the gums are not just protected, but strengthened from use. Other products  – with their stiff and rigid construction – can actually cause harm to the gums. 

Flossing with braces

Anyone with braces will plainly see the benefits of UFloss! While it’s recommended that those with braces floss every day (or even twice per day!), traditional flossing often gets skipped entirely due to the laborious floss threaders required. Dr. Carlos views UFloss as the obvious alternative, and recommends using UFloss after every meal.
