What's a "flosser"???

A friend sent me an email, containing "DATING ADS FOR SENIORS", just for the fun of it.
Under the title, he said: "(Who says seniors don't have a sense of humor!)"
He's abroad now, at Bali.

Now I wonder about one DATING AD:
"WINNING SMILE: Active grandmother with original teeth seeking a dedicated flosser to share rare steaks, corn on the cob and caramel candy."

I searched LEO, the tube, but I didn't achieve!

What's a "flosser"???

Thamks for your explications
Cheers, April

A flosser is someone who flosses..

And going back to that ad...when you still have your own teeth you need to floss to keep them clean. So then you are a flosser. And that particular lady is looking for someone who also still has their own teeth.

Weird ad. But there you go.

May be it means she's looking for a toy boy. Age 45 or something like that

Flosser is a German Company and part of their offering according to their website, might be just what the lady is seeking:

"Not only is FLÖSSER known for high quality products, but also for providing customised service. Personal assistance, short delivery times and economical ways of transport are what we can offer besides our products to meet your demands."

Lucky Lady!

By now, the expression floss & flosser came to our contry, via advertisements.
Sorry I ignored it. Floss was called tooth-silk (Zahnseide), also used, but expression ignored.
Thx for your explanations.

The caramel candy in the original advert is very dangerous as is Bonfire Night treacle toffee.. Just lost another filling, dammit!

You can also pull them out with too vigorous flossing!

My Domestic Manager says some men will do anything to get an appointment to see their glamorous blonde lady dentist.........
