1. Brushing teeth can remove tartar and food residues on the surface, but most people will choose flossing to achieve better results. Not only does dental floss effectively remove food residue, it does so without damaging your gums. The amount of floss you need depends on how clogged your teeth are and how often you eat. For example, friends with periodontal disease must carry dental floss in their pocket every day. Dental floss is best used after meals and after rinsing your mouth. If you eat several times a day, you decide how many times a day you should floss.

2. If you don’t plug your teeth, there is no need to use dental floss, because dental floss also has a certain width. Convert teeth that didn't exist into teeth. The first time will lead to a second time and even more. Therefore, it is recommended that especially teenagers who do not have dental floss should try not to floss, but if friends who have teeth are different, dental floss must be carried with them and must be used after meals. Dental floss is a type of thread that can be used to clean plaque. The material of this thread can be nylon thread, silk thread or polyester thread.

3. Although dental floss can be used every day, it is also recommended to use it once a day, but once a day is the best number of times. When you brush your teeth after dinner, you can remove accumulated food residue from your teeth without having to use it several times. However, you can still floss once during the day if there is significant food buildup between the teeth that makes it look unsightly and uncomfortable. There is no time to use the floss pick and the number of times is limited. After eating, use a dental floss pick to clean the food impaction in time, otherwise the food will press the gums, which will only cause gingivitis at the beginning. If the food impaction is not cleaned for a long time, not only the teeth are prone to dental caries, but also the gums will recede.

4. Dental floss is very important, but it must be combined with thorough brushing. When encountering some patients who believe too much in dental floss and think that they will not get cavities by using dental floss, it can completely replace brushing. This is not true. Well, because bacteria multiply quickly and will come back quickly if you don’t clean thoroughly, simply flossing is not enough. Dental floss can be used before or after brushing your teeth. Of course, you can also usually eat dental floss. Most of the dental floss materials are nylon and silk thread, which are very soft. Some dental floss has wax on the surface, which is very smooth and can easily slide into the teeth. It is harmless to teeth and can be used with confidence.
