Orthodontic Flossers for Braces
Platypus T-140-1 flossers are designed for people wearing fixed braces who struggle with traditional floss threading. The patented spatula end slides under the arch wire so users can floss between brackets without a mirror. Each pack contains 40 unflavoured picks made from polypropylene and a bracket brush for cleaning around hardware. Suitable for daily home use or on-the-go cleaning after meals.
Sustained Daily Use
Independent data shows wearers are 21 times more likely to floss every day compared with conventional thread methods, lifting overall compliance by 84 percent. The one-piece design removes the friction of re-threading so a full-mouth routine takes under two minutes. Because the floss stays taut against the tooth surface, plaque removal remains consistent from the first pick to the last in the 40-count pack. No threading frustration means the habit survives busy mornings and late nights alike.
Hygiene Handling and Waste
The polypropylene picks weigh 28.35 grams per unit and measure 72 inches of total floss length across the pack, giving a lightweight, disposable tool that requires no batteries or recharging. Used flossers can be discarded with regular household waste, eliminating the need for charging cables or countertop chargers. The integrated bracket brush adds mechanical cleaning around brackets without extra liquid or paste. Orthodontist-recommended construction avoids wire damage during repeated daily sessions.

Questions about this item
Does the flosser generate any noise, heat or power draw when used all day?
The Platypus T-140-1 is a manual orthodontic flosser with no motor, battery or electronics, so it produces no noise, heat or power consumption during use.
What else must I already own for the flosser to work with my braces?
You only need the flosser itself; it fits directly under the arch wire and between teeth without threading tools, mirrors or additional accessories.
How does the flosser behave alongside the brackets and wires I already have?
The patented spatula end slides under the arch wire and presses against the tooth, while the bracket brush end removes plaque around brackets without damaging wires or brackets.
