DO YOU FLOSS CORRECTLY?

DO YOU FLOSS CORRECTLY?

It is recommended that everyone flosses atleast once a day. Flossing is essential to remove plaque and maintain your gums in a healthy state.

Here are the proper techniques to floss:

  1.  2 finger method
    1. Take a piece of floss approximately 12-18 inches long.
    2. Wind it around the middle finger of both hands until you have a gap of three or four inches.
    3. Use your fingers and thumb to place the floss between your teeth. Use gentle pressure so as to prevent any damage to the gums.
    4. Run your floss up and down along the surface of the tooth.
    5. Once the 3-4 inches of floss frays, move to another segment of the 18 inch long floss.
  2.  Loop method
    1. Tie both ends of the 12-18 inches long floss into a big loop
    2. Use your fingers and thumbs to position the floss and follow the steps similar to the 2 finger method.
  3. Use of floss tooth picks.
