Description

A little bow to string your dental floss across. Requires less floss than using your fingers, and only slightly harder to use!

Standard warnings apply:

• Don’t accidentally swallow this thing.
• Don’t use this if you’re uncomfortable having plastic in your mouth.

And problems with this design:

• The bow is not quite thick enough to prevent it from bending inward.
• The straight-line handle makes it hard to reach back teeth.

Instructions

1. Print
2. String with dental floss.
3. Floss teeth.
4. Repeat as recommended by your dental hygienist.
