Zusammenfassung:A motorized flosser comprising an elongated body and a replaceable flossing head secured to an end portion of the elongated body is provided. The flossing head oscillates in a rotary or arcuate manner a length of flossing material across the surface of a user's teeth. A battery powered motor drives a drive mechanism which reciprocates in an oscillatory manner. The drive mechanism is coupled to a disk which oscillates in a arcuate or rotary motion. The disk oscillates in an arc of approximately sixty degrees. A removable and replaceable flossing head having a length of floss extending between two tines is removably coupled to the disk. Preferably, a toothpaste holder also forms a part of the flossing head.
