ABSTRACT:
The disclosure concerns an improved dental hygiene technique for removing plaque from human teeth wherein a loop of multifilament flossing thread is trained about fingers on opposite hands of the user and worked in the spaces between the teeth while maintained taut. The flossing loop may be joint-free and comprise many turns of a single, continuous filament, or it may be made from multifilament thread and have a joint formed by gluing, heat sealing, knotting or air splicing. The last mentioned type of loop may include at least one protruding tail which performs a mopping function during plaque removal.
