(A) an elastic dental floss portion having a first loop in a fixed position toward a second loop, and a junction area between the loops,
(i) the junction area can withstand forces, without normally breaking, when pushed or pulled within said inter-proximal space, and(ii) the first loop is spaced from the second loop so that: (a) a portion of the first loop cleans front parts of the teeth surrounding said inter-proximal space, and (b) a portion of the second loop cleans back parts of the teeth surrounding said inter-proximal space when the junction area moves back and forth within the inter-proximal space, and (B) said floss portion returning to its shape after being pushed or pulled within said inter-proximal space; said flossing device further comprising:
(i) a plurality of dental floss portions;(ii) a dental comb, in which the floss portions are mounted upon;(iii) a lengthened grip having an end into which said dental comb is insertable; and optionally, and(iv) a means for delivering at least one of a flavor or a therapeutic substance to the oral cavity, the means comprising floss impregnation; wherein each of said dental floss portions is in the shape of the numeral eight. |
