Hemp Filament Floss

Abstract

The preset invention is comprised of a novel hemp filament floss generally consisting of tightly bound hemp plant filaments and fibers. The filaments and fibers are structured to a string like design similar to presently marketed silk, plastic, and bamboo floss; into a strong, string-like, durable structure. The hemp floss may be coated and flavored for friction and comfort. The coating may include dietary or medicinal properties and substances. In other embodiments, said hemp filament floss is not limited to morphing in regard to structure, components, coating, shape, size, texture, and style.

Claims

1. A novel interdental hemp plant filament floss comprised of: a. tightly bound hemp filaments and hemp fibers b. a string-like, strong, durable structure f. coated and flavored for friction and comfort g. a coating may include dietary or medicinal properties and substances

2. The interdental hemp filament floss of claim 1 comprising of different thicknesses, structures, lengths, and coatings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the inventions. As used herein, the term and/or includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. As used herein, the singular forms a, an, and the are intended to include the plural forms as well as the singular forms, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will be further understood that the terms comprises and/or comprising, when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated features, steps, operations, elements, and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, elements, components, and/or groups thereof.

[0014] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one having ordinary skill in the art to which the inventions belong. It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having as meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and the present disclosure and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.

[0015] In describing the inventions, it will be understood that a number of techniques and steps are disclosed. Each of these has individual benefit and each can also be used in conjunction with one or more, or in some cases all, of the other disclosed techniques. Accordingly, for the sake of clarity, this description will refrain from repeating every possible combination of the individual steps in an unnecessary fashion. Nevertheless, the specification and claims should be read with the understanding that such combinations are entirely within the scope of the inventions and the claims.

[0016] A novel interdental hemp plant filament floss and it's embodiments are discussed herein. In the following description, for purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. It will be evident, however, to one skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details.

[0017] The present disclosure is to be considered as an exemplification of the inventions, and is not intended to limit the inventions to the specific embodiments illustrated by the figures or description below.

[0018] The present invention will now be described by referencing the appended figures representing preferred embodiments. FIG. 1 depicts a front perspective view of one example of hemp filament floss according to various embodiments of the present invention. In preferred embodiments, the hemp filament is tightly bound to form a tight string like material to mock the present marketed silk, bamboo, and plastic floss design. The wound filaments should be tightly bound and durable to withstand manual interdental debridement.

[0019] In preferred embodiments, the hemp filament floss is used to debride bacteria and food debris from the interproximal regions of the teeth. The floss may be slightly coated and flavored for friction, strength, and comfort. The floss may be also coated with CBD , THC, or any other suitable medicinal products. The floss may be wound in or onto wheels or spools and placed into an interdental aid devices or housing containers per FIG. 2 which illustrates a front perspective view of one example of a wound hemp floss wheel or used by itself.

[0020] While preferred materials for elements have been described, the floss is not limited by these materials. Said invention may be comprised by other elements in various embodiments of the present invention.

[0021] Although the present inventions have been illustrated and described herein with reference to preferred embodiments and specific examples thereof, it will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art that other embodiments and examples may perform similar functions and/or achieve like results. All such equivalent embodiments are examples are within the spirit and scope of the present invention, and are contemplated thereby, and are intended to be covered by the following claims.
