Floss-pick

A disposable dental hygiene implement comprising:

• a tooth pick member (51) having an elongated length and small diameter and at least one strand of floss member (71) provided thereto;
• said pick member (51) comprising a substantially elongated body portion (53) for being grasped by a user's fingers and a picking portion (55) for being inserted in the gap between the teeth,
• said picking portion (55) being integrally extended from the body portion (53) and gradually reduced in diameter in the direction of a marginal end (56) of the pick member (51) and finally converging to the marginal end (56),
• said strand of floss member (71) having adequate length being integrally provided to the pick member (51) along the longitudinal length thereof,
• said floss member (71) integrally provided to the body of the pick member (51) further extending outwardly from the marginal end of the pick member (51) opposite to the marginal end (56) of the picking portion (55),
• said floss member (71) extending outwardly to have enough length for a user to grasp with the fingers and to carry out the flossing operation, and
• at the marginal end (56) the filaments of the floss member (71) and the material of the pick member (51) being altogether combined with each other, and thereby forming a buffering structure of the picking portion (55).

• said picking portion (55) being arcuately curved at the beginning point (54) that is positioned at the point where the picking portion (55) extends out from the body portion (53) and forms an elongated arched picking portion (55) providing an elevated midportion and downwardly curving opposite marginal end (56) (buffering end (57)) and the beginning part (54), and
• at least one strand of floss member (71) having adequate length being secured between marginal end (56) (or buffering end (57)) and the beginning part (54) in a tensioned state.
