The process of flossing is notoriously tedious and requires several minutes to be performed, which are two aspects the 'Blizzflosser' is designed to help change. Designed by Chris Martin, the oral care device is achieved via 3D printing and utilizes several small sections of floss to clear plaque in mere seconds. The mouthpiece only needs to be positioned into the mouth and shifted with the jaw to fit the various floss pieces in between the teeth; moving the unit around for about 15-seconds will result in all teeth being flossed at once with minimal effort.
The 'Blizzflosser' is designed to perfectly replicate the process of manual flossing and is rated to last for up to three-months of regular use. The unit only needs to be rinsed between uses to keep it fresh.
