A frilly dental floss ribbon, made of a polymer material, for cleaning, massaging between a user's teeth, and removing plaque, the frilly floss comprising a thin flat ribbon having a length, a width, two identical flat surfaces, two edges, and two terminal ends, wherein:
- a) either or both said edges are cut forming frills along either or both said edges of said flat floss ribbon, and
- b) said flat floss ribbon having centrally located small V-shaped slits, in combination with said frills on either or both said edges of said flat ribbon said slits created by cutting said flat surface of said floss ribbon at an internal angle of about 60° to about 120° along the central longitudinal axis of said floss ribbon, each side of said V-shaped slits being about 1 mm to about 5 mm long, and placed about 5 mm to about 30 mm apart along the length of the central longitudinal axis of said flat floss ribbon, said slits defining flaps for loosening and scooping debris out from between a user's teeth.
