The Platypus Flosser
"Six months ago, Laura presented like most 11-year-old orthodontal patients, with inflamed tissue and plaque around her brackets," Scott Green DMD, from Frenchtown, Montana said. "On this recall, her gums were pink and there was no plaque. The platypus made a big difference."

1.) Simply apply flat, thin side of flosser to lip/cheek (buccal) side of tooth and apply slight pressure against the face of the tooth.
2.) Then slide flat, thin side of flosser under the wire.
3.) Congratulations! You are flossing!
4.) The other end is a brush/pick you may use around the brackets.
As you can see, simple, easy to use. This device is a winner for anyone who wears braces.
