Abstract: A tooth flossing assembly for simultaneously flossing an entire row of teeth includes a mouthpiece that is curved along a longitudinal axis to conform to the curvature of a row of a user's teeth. The mouthpiece has a plurality of engagement points positioned thereon. The engagement points are spaced apart from each other and are distributed along the mouthpiece at locations corresponding to the locations between each tooth in the row of the user's teeth. A plurality of flossing units is provided and each of the flossing units is removably coupled between a respective pair of the engagement points. Each of the flossing units includes a string that slides between a respective pair of the user's teeth when the user pushed up or bites down on the mouthpiece. In this way the plurality of flossing units can simultaneously floss the entire row of teeth.
