Additional Information for Dental Floss Threader
Dental floss threaders are small, flexible tools used in dental care to help thread dental floss through tight spaces or around dental appliances such as braces, bridges, or implants. They are part of the supply class Dental Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies, which falls under the supply group Medical, Dental, and Veterinary Equipment and Supplies.
Dental floss threaders are typically made of a thin, flexible plastic or nylon material. They have a loop or eyelet at one end, which allows the dental floss to be easily threaded through. The other end of the threader is usually designed to be held and manipulated by the user.
To use a dental floss threader, the user inserts the threader through the tight space or around the dental appliance, guiding it with gentle pressure. Once the threader is in position, the dental floss is threaded through the loop or eyelet of the threader. The user can then pull the dental floss through the space or around the appliance, effectively cleaning the area.
Dental floss threaders are particularly useful for individuals with braces, bridges, or implants, as these dental appliances can create obstacles for traditional flossing. By using a threader, individuals can effectively clean these hard-to-reach areas and maintain good oral hygiene.
It is important to note that dental floss threaders are disposable and should be replaced regularly to ensure optimal hygiene and effectiveness. They can be purchased from dental supply stores or online retailers that specialize in dental supplies.
