Armed to the teeth, FlossElf lets you see where you want to floss. Say goodbye to missing spots
Everyone knows flossing is important to protect the tooth, while from the research we did, 80% of people spent less time flossing than they should be. Let’s face it: flossing is hard, you always you often miss hard-to-reach spots, sometimes it even hurts your delicate gums. Now, you don’t have to worry anymore!
With FlossElf, you can view the live video of your mouth as you floss. so you can make sure every flossing gets the job done and no damage to your teeth or gums.
It also allows you to communicate with your dentist by sharing your recorded pictures and videos through the App.
Our survey shows that most people only visit the dentist once a year or less, which is significantly under the recommended amount. Covid-19 has made it even harder to get the routine check-ups necessary to maintain a healthy smile.
That’s why Floss Elf’s picture and video sharing is so convenient: through the App, you can share your feed with your dentist so they can provide you with the care you need, all from the safety of your own home!
The high-resolution camera is perfectly located behind the flossing line, so you can clearly see the areas that need cleaning. Our specially designed flossing picks allow you to move freely between each tooth, creating a new and improved flossing experience.
Each FlossElf comes with a 3-month supply of replaceable flosser picks that are easy to use, sustainable, and PFAS-free. After every flossing session, simply remove the used picks, compost or recycle it, and snap on a new one. Our research shows that using FlossElf for one year reduced the overall plastic usage associated with flossing by 60%. Our flosser picks may be small, but that’s a big step to cutting down single-use plastic waste!
Do you floss in the shower or on the go? That’s no problem with the FlossElf!Our IPX7 waterproof design features a USB-C charging port and a 1-month battery life, so you can floss whenever or wherever you want.
Find maneuvering with traditional floss tricky? FlossElf’s ergonomic handle allows for greater control and easier access to those hard-to-reach areas, so you never miss a spot again. The bright flash on our camera can even help you floss between crowns and bridges with ease.
Using your fingers to clean out your teeth can introduce up to 10 million bacteria into your mouth, which we can all agree is gross! Our thoughtfully designed floss pick helps keep your fingers and the unwanted germs they hold out of your mouth. Visual flossing provides an additional defense against stuck particles, reaching into the hard-to-reach areas toothbrushes can’t get to.
When it comes to an electronic flosser, size matters! Our team spent months ensuring the FlossElf was small enough to take with you anywhere. About the size of lipstick, the FlossElf is 80% smaller than other e-flossers on the market.
Brushing only cleans about 60% of your tooth’s surface, leaving cracks and spaces between your teeth untouched. Flossing cleans the remaining 40% and is one of the best ways to improve your oral hygiene, beauty and overall health!

Most dental floss is made of synthetic wax-covered nylon, which is neither biodegradable nor recyclable and is a nightmare for the environment. We can’t outlaw disposable flosser picks or make families pay a high price for other solutions, but the FlossElf community decided it could do more.
Although we have already reduced the size of our replaceable floss picks, we’ve begun developing reusable ones to create even less waste. Although the design is finished, they’re still in the testing period, which is proving harder than we imagined.
