Why Flossing Matters
Flossing is a critical part of oral hygiene that many people neglect. Your toothbrush can't reach the tight spaces between your teeth and under the gumline. This is where plaque, a sticky film of bacteria, loves to hide.
Benefits of Daily Flossing
- Removes plaque and food particles
- Helps prevent cavities and gum disease (gingivitis)
- Reduces bad breath
- Contributes to overall health
Tips for Success
- Floss at the same time each day to build a routine.
- Use about 18 inches of floss.
- Be gentle! Don't snap the floss between your teeth.
- Curve the floss around each tooth in a C-shape.
Building a flossing habit can be tough, but tracking your streak can provide powerful motivation. Seeing the number go up day after day reinforces your commitment to your oral health. Aim for a week, then a month, and before you know it, it will be an automatic part of your day!
