You should always floss each and every day, but sometimes this dental rule can slip your mind, which is where this smart floss dispenser comes in handy.
The 'Flosstime' device easily mounts to your bathroom mirror with a micro-suction tape and is specially designed to help promote daily flossing habits. Push the device's button and 18 inches of dental floss -- the perfect amount according to the American Dental Association -- is dispensed from the device. A series of blue glowing quadrants will also count down from 90 seconds, which is the recommend amount of time you should be flossing.
The floss dispenser also comes with snap-on faces of different animals for kids, and promotes good behavior every time you floss with a light-up blue smile. Forget to floss for a few days and the dispenser will show a red frown face until you start to floss again.
