ABSTRACT:
A bite device for dental flossers having a fork which supports a floss span between tines of the fork. The bite device includes a bite member (10) having a bite surface (21) on one side and a stop guard (24) on an opposite side. The bite member is movably supported between the fork tines such that the member and the fork can move up and down relative to each other. The member is connected to the fork such that a user biting on the bite surface can drive the floss span through a tight interdental gap wherein the stop guard engages a user tooth adjacent the floss span to prevent over-travel of the span thereby preventing floss impact against user gums. When the bite is released, the bite member moves to a neutral position to allow a full range of flossing motion.
