An apparatus and method for dental flossing is provided. The apparatus includes a first and second floss stick, each of which includes an elongated base portion, a top portion, where the top portion includes a slot or other means to thread floss, and a narrow neck. A segment of floss is wrapped between the first floss stick and second floss stick, such that the segment of floss is initially wrapped over the slot, or other threading means, and then around the narrow neck portion in the first floss stick, and then wrapped over the slot, or other threading means, and around the narrow neck portion of the second floss stick. One or both of the floss sticks may contain reels of floss. The method for dental flossing includes the steps of gripping the apparatus by the elongated base portions of the first and second floss sticks in each hand; separating the first and second floss sticks; flossing teeth by using thumbs or forefingers placed on the floss between the first and second floss sticks to guide the floss; rotating the first and second floss sticks to move fresh floss from the first floss stick and used floss to the second floss stick between flossing of gaps between the teeth; and removing used floss when finished by pulling the floss straight upwards off the tops of the first and second floss sticks.
