The new Reach Access Daily Flosser has been specifically designed to make flossing so easy that patients will be willing to do it every day, according to Johnson & Johnson.
Its design features a long, toothbrush-style handle and angled neck and means that patients can comfortably reach their back teeth without needing to put their hands in their mouth. A rubber non-slip grip makes it easy to hold and manoeuvre the floss around the mouth, and the refill heads snap on and off to be replaced after every use.
A shred and break resistant floss means it will not get stuck and break off between the teeth.
