ABSTRACT:
A dental flossing apparatus includes a body having a gripping portion and a bifurcated distal portion defining a pair of tines and a slot between them, and a rocker member pivotally connected to the body. The opposite ends of a strand of dental floss are so connected to the body and/or rocker member that the user can selectively rock the rocker member and cause an intermediate portion of the dental floss to be reciprocated between the guiding tines for better cleaning the facing surfaces of adjacent teeth.
