Other than just flossing with string, is there a good reusable floss holder?
Some people may have motor limitations that make flossing difficult. Or just find it gross
They are a bit more expensive than the plastic ones but they make plastic free ones.

My ADHD effectively does not allow me to floss regularly with standalone floss. It's either those or I'll do it maybe once a month.
Get a 3d printer and make one I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This one has a reusable handle, it's just the little C shaped piece of plastic that the floss stretches across that is disposable. I'm sure it's not ideal, but I can get several uses out of each one before changing the floss. I just rinse it in hydrogen peroxide when I'm done. https://www.amazon.com/Listerine-ULTRACLEAN-Flosser-Refills-Flavored/dp/B00PG59X2K/
Looking for a link to the one above, I found this one, which seems to replace the floss each time with a pretty nicely engineered system, I haven't tried it though. https://www.orthomechanic.com/easy-flosser/ After watching the video I feel like I would drool into the floss spool compartment and or get it wet when rinsing the thing.
