ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a teeth cleaning apparatus which is a composite of oral cleaning implements. An elongated member has one pointed tip for cleaning between the teeth and a second end having a scoop shape for dislodging particulate matter from hard to reach places. The extended shaft portion of the device provides for supporting and handling of the scoop and point-end. Alternative embodiments of the present invention further provide a spool or cleat region cut into the elongated shaft. The spool or cleat section provides a region along the shaft suitable for wrapping and holding a supply of dental floss. The materials used in the proposed device are selected so as to minimize the amount of discomfort resulting from interacting with the gums and may be any color and optionally flavored.
