New Oral-B Hummingbird: Flossing reinvented!

Now flossing is easier than making excuses not to. The new Oral-B Hummingbird is a compact, battery-powered flosser that easily maneuvers between interproximal spaces and in hard-to-reach places like the back of the mouth.


It features an interchangeable power pick and flossette that gently vibrate to stimulate gums. And best of all, more than half of those who tried it said they would use Hummingbird to floss more often.1

Features of the Hummingbird include:

  • Gentle vibrations massage your gums;
  • Choice of two attachments - power ergonomic flosser and soft mint dental pick;
  • Designed to reach between teeth and below gum line to remove plaque;
  • Hummingbird reaches areas your toothbrush cannot;
  • Handy 100mm tall compact design fits in the palm of your hand;
  • Easy and convenient size lets you floss with one hand;
  • Powered by one AAA Duracell® battery (included).
  • Power pick and flossette proven as effective as regular floss at reducing gingivitis.2
