Do you hate flossing?

About 1/3 of plaque on your teeth can only be reached with dental floss. Without flossing, bacteria traps between your teeth and can cause bad breath which can also lead to inflamed and bleeding gums.

Flossing tips:

  1. Use about 10-18 inches of floss. Wrap most around the middle finger of one hand, the rest around your other middle finger.
  2. Grasp the floss tightly between your thumb and forefinger. Use a rubbing motion to guide the floss between teeth.
  3. When the floss reaches the gum line, form a “C” to follow the shape of the teeth.
  4. Hold the floss firmly against the tooth and move it gently up and down.
  5. Repeat with adjacent tooth, then with the rest of your teeth.
  6. Use fresh sections of the floss as you go.
