Common conclusions

Flossing will help you remove those food particles left in between your teeth that you weren't able to get by the toothbrush. It prevents tartar and plaque buildup as well. Also, choose the right toothbrush for your teeth if you don't fancy using floss.

Gum problem can be because of plaque buildup that wasn't thoroughly removed by toothbrushing. Proper flossing will not make your gums bleed and can improve your oral health as well.

If your toothbrush isn't sufficient enough to clean your teeth, flossing will help you remove any particles stuck in between your teeth and prevent them from decaying. It can also help prevent bad breath and bacteria occurrence.

Flossing every day can be beneficial for your teeth, as it reduces the appearance of stains and mitigates the possibility of having tooth decay.

If you don’t know how to floss your teeth properly, it may damage your gums and teeth. Research has found that improper use of flossing can also cause harmful bacteria to be released into your bloodstream.

If you have significant gaps in your teeth, a dental tape will work best for you. You can go for a waxed floss for tighter gaps as it’s easier to slide on tight spaces. Choosing the right floss for your teeth will help prevent gum bleeding.

If you find flossing a bit difficult, you can visit your dentist to ask for a suggestion on what else can help you clean your teeth in between.

Brushing your teeth and using mouthwash are already beneficial for your oral health, but flossing it will make it cleaner. Choose the right floss that is right for your teeth to avoid bleeding gums.
