The Company
Our Objective
At our company, your well-being is our top priority! We understand that only about 30% of people floss regularly because traditional methods can be difficult, fiddly, and time-consuming. That’s why we’re passionate about making flossing easier and more enjoyable for everyone.
Introducing The Piccolo: a game-changing flosser designed to simplify your oral care routine. With its quick and easy operation, The Piccolo tackles all the challenges of traditional flossing, helping more people incorporate it into their daily routine and potentially boosting overall community health.
We’ve listened to your feedback and developed The Piccolo with a fresh, patented approach to flossing that’s as effortless as brushing your teeth. It’s a significant leap forward from existing products, especially for those with bridges, braces, or limited hand dexterity. Say goodbye to flossing hassles and hello to a brighter, healthier smile with The Piccolo!
