ABSTRACT:
A dental flossing tool comprising two tool members. One member supports a strand of floss between two closely spaced portions and the other member has a laterally projecting wire with a hook shape at the free end thereof. The wire is insertable between two teeth of a person and hooks the strand floss between the tips of the other member so that the floss can be pulled between the teeth by withdrawal of the wire from between the teeth. Upon such withdrawal, the two members can then be manipulated for flossing the two teeth. The invention has particular application for flossing the supporting teeth of a permanent bridge.
