The present invention is a full-mouth toothbrush apparatus. The full-mouth toothbrush apparatus comprises a housing, a pair of brush tines, a set of brush connectors, and a set of brush inserts. The set of brush connectors comprises a pair of first brush connectors and a second brush connector. The pair of brush tines is terminally connected adjacent to the housing. The set of brush connectors is distributed about the pair of brush tines. The pair of first brush connectors is terminally distributed along the pair of brush tines. The pair of first brush connectors is hingedly connected along the pair of brush tines. The second brush connector is slidably connected along the pair of brush tines. The second brush connector is positioned between the housing and the first pair of first brush connectors.

A dental flossing pick includes a body, a lever, and at least one torsion spring. The body may include a first arm and a first jaw, and the lever may include a second arm and a second jaw. The lever may be rotatably coupled to the body, and the at least one torsion spring may be coupled to the body and the lever. The first arm and the second arm may be rotatable toward one another, against a resistance force of the at least one torsion spring, from an open state to a closed state to form a handle. In the closed state, the first jaw and the second jaw may be clamped to one another to form a fork distal to the handle. The fork may include a first prong and a second prong defining therebetween a gap in which a length of dental floss material may be secured.

An oral hygiene device, which comprises a main body not provided with a region forming a handle, with dimensions that allow the device to be completely inserted into the mouth area of a user, said main body (11, 21, 31, 41) supporting at least one piece of dental floss (12, 22, 32, 42), where said piece of floss (12, 22, 32, 42) defines at least one cleaning zone, wherein the main body (11, 21, 31, 41) has two separate support regions each configured to support the ends of a piece of floss (12, 22, 32, 42), in the form of protruding projections that extend away from a central portion. This device for oral hygiene is based on cleaning with dental floss, not being provided with any region forming a handle or the like since it does not require the use of hands during its use.

A dental flosser is provided for delivering to a mouth a moisture activated composition including a flavor agent. The dental flosser comprises a base portion forming a handle and terminating at a distal head portion. A pair of spaced apart arms extend from the head portion, each of the spaced apart arms having a proximal first end adjoining the head portion and a distal second end. A length of dental floss extends between the distal second ends of the arms. A surface of at least one arm of the pair of arms defines a cavity between the first end and the second end forming a well for accommodating the composition. The width of the cavity in a plane parallel to the surface of the at least one arm is substantially the same or greater than the width of the bottom of the cavity.

A hybrid dental tool is disclosed herein. The hybrid dental tool includes a flosser having a flossing head. The flossing head can include a filament stretching between the first arm and a second arm. The flossing head can include a pick receptacle. The hybrid dental tool can further include a pick that has a first end and a second end. The pick can be sized and shaped to fit within the pick receptacle such that the first and second ends are protected. The pick can releasably connect with the flossing head to allow the separation of the pick from the flossing head.

A dental floss holder and flosser is provided. The flosser provides a reusable dental device for cleaning between the user's teeth. The flosser comprises a casing, a pair of tines, and a floss advancement reel. A bundle of floss resides within the casing. A length of dental floss from the bundle of floss is fed through the casing and into the floss advancement reel. The length of dental floss is wrapped around the floss advancement reel. The length of dental floss is then strung taut along the pair of tines, forming a fresh segment of dental floss. The remaining length is routed and wrapped back to the floss advancement reel. A user can then rotate the floss advancement reel such that the segment of dental floss is replaced and ready for the next use.

The invention relates to a dental floss product and its manufacturing method. The dental floss product consists of a dental floss comprising an operating part for cleaning tooth gaps and two end portions with a gripping surface connected by a joining zone, the first end part being fixed to the first end of the dental floss and the second end is attached to the other end of the dental floss. The ends of the dental floss are permanently fixed around the end portions in the same direction of rotation, and the portion of the dental floss, which extends around the joining zone of the end portions, in the same or opposite direction of rotation. The dental floss is attached to the plate web by rotating it around its longitudinal axis or by rotating the dental floss around the plate web.
