ABSTRACT:
A dental flossing tool which is constructed to utilize the conventionally available dental floss containing containers. The tool includes a support for the container. The tool also has an elongated member which is bifurcated at its outer end. Openings are formed within the legs of the bifurcated end. Dental floss is to be strung from the container along the surface of the elongated member through the openings resulting in the dental floss being tautly stretched across the legs. The free end of the dental floss is tightly wrapped around a protruding member which is integrally formed on the surface of the elongated member. The protruding member also includes a restrictor which restricts the pulling movement of the strand through the tool to facilitate tautly stretching of the dental floss across the gap.
