ABSTRACT:
A disposable dental floss applicator (10) which includes both a flexible elongate member (22) and a handle member (20) secured on one of the opposing ends (24 or 26) of the flexible elongate member (22). Dental floss (14) is placed in tensioned relation between opposing ends (24 and 26) and forms the flexible elongate member (22) into an arcuate contour. The arcuate contour of the flexible elongate member (22) causes a biasing force on the dental floss (14) to maintain such in a tension condition and allow for insertion into the mouth (16) of the user (12). The handle member (20) is adapted to be gripped between the fingers of the user (12) for insertion at least partially into the mouth (16) of the user (12). Subsequent to use, the disposable dental floss applicator system (10) is thrown away.
