ABSTRACT:
A dental flosser including a holder and an operation end keeping a certain contact angle with the holder, and the operation end having a horizontal section on the front end, and floss mounted on the front edge of two ribs resembling an arch on the operation end so that the floss is kept perpendicular to the holder. The structure of such dental flosser makes it easy for stretching floss into the space of each tooth and closely touching the gum line. A firm and perpendicular thrust force and tension force may be formed upon the crown surface of the tooth space by pushing the holder forward or pulling it backward with the hand, with the stream of force in conjunction with moving dental flosser up and down made easier for the floss removing the dental plaque from the crown surface. Such an easy removal of dental plaque has even more significant effect for molars located deeper inside the mouth.
