ABSTRACT:
Improved dental floss comprising a first end, a central portion and a second end, with the first and second ends having relatively increased cross-sectional dimensions relative to the central portion. The increased cross-sectional dimensions of the end portions enhance the ease and comfort of holding the floss during use. The floss may be dispensed from a continuous roll, with a means of cutting the floss so that each length has relatively thickened ends. The floss may also be dispensed in convenient pre-cut lengths, each having thickened end portions and a relatively narrow central portion.
