Flossing Teeth Easier With These Tips

As a dentist, I’ve heard every reason in the book why people don’t floss. And, for every reason, there is an even better one why they should!

Flossing removes food particles that become wedged between teeth. It also helps remove the sticky buildup of bacteria that forms plaque. Keeping oral bacteria at a minimum helps to prevent bad breath, cavities, gingivitis and gum disease.

Everyone can floss easily with some basic pointers and a little practice. For easy flossing instructions, check out our Flossing Made Simple video:
