Dental floss isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about a Father’s Day, birthday, or Christmas gift, agreed. But this new 3-in-1 device is cool enough that anyone who is into gadgets, wellness, or both will think it’s an incredible gift. And after all, it’s filling a near-universal need. Most people don’t floss enough because, well…flossing.
The Slate flosser not only, obviously, flosses, but massages your gums and cleans your tongue. The floss heads vibrate at 12,000 sonic vibrations per minute, and the device is ergonomically designed for a comfortable grip. Plus, it’s so much more environmentally friendly than those plastic floss picks that are so popular now.
The brand recommends replacing the floss head with a fresh one once a week, assuming it’s used every day. Until then, just rinse it off like your toothbrush. ( Floss heads for braces are available.) The floss itself is woven with 450 chemical-free, uncoated strands. This starter kits gives you five floss heads and two AA batteries. The Slate Flosser is also sold as a pair at a $10 savings, which is a cute and unique couple gift for a bridal shower.
