Does Flossing Really Make A Difference?
Along with brushing and using an essential oil-containing mouth rinse, flossing is an essential part of a daily oral health routine, and is recommended by the ADA.
Tips To Help You Start And Maintain A Flossing Routine
- Start with modest goals once or twice a week.
- Build towards every day at least once a day flossing.
- Floss wherever and whenever—in the shower, watching TV, listening to music.
- Make it a routine—floss at the same time each day.
- Keep floss handy.
Remember that flossing should not be painful; but if it is, ask your dentist or hygienist to instruct you in proper flossing technique.
