Flossing
Flossing
Flossing removes the plaque and food particles from the places where toothbrush cannot easily reach i.e. under the gum line and between the teeth.
- Starting with 18 inches of floss, wind most of the floss around each middle finger.
- Pinch the floss between thumbs and index fingers leaving 1-2 inches in between.
- Gently floss between the teeth using sawing motion. Use thumbs to direct the floss between upper teeth.
- Bend the floss towards the front and back surface of the teeth in order to clean both the surfaces. Use index fingers to direct the floss between lower teeth.
- Never snap or force the floss as it may cut or bruise the gingival tissue. Flossing should be done on regular basis at least once daily.
