ABSTRACT:
A dental hygiene device for cleaning between teeth wherein dental floss is advanced, across a span between the tines of a fork, to a motorized level-winding take-up spool. The fork is reciprocated by the motor, resulting in two-dimensional movement of the floss within the span. The moving fork is shielded to prevent contact with oral tissues. Motor speed is varied by a potentiometer operated by way of a trigger. The floss span can be held taut, during passage between tightly contacting teeth, by a brake operated by way of the trigger. An adjustable drag connected to a contamination protected dispensing spool controls floss tension.
