The Key to a Truly Clean Smile
Many people skip flossing, but it’s one of the most important habits for preventing cavities and gum disease. Flossing removes food particles and plaque from between teeth, where brushing alone cannot reach.
How to Floss the Right Way
Use About 18 Inches of Floss
Wrap it around your fingers, leaving about 1-2 inches to work with.
Gently Glide the Floss Between Teeth
Avoid snapping, which can damage gums.
Curve the Floss Around Each Tooth
Move it up and down to clean the full surface.
