We care about your dental health, which is why we recommend you to make it regular your habit of flossing your teeth cleaning every day. A lot of people do not take flossing seriously and think that tooth brushing is enough and if you are one of them, you are in a complete error. If the intention is to have good dental health, you should know that the bristles do not reach some areas where bacteria, which if not removed, will accumulate become the cause of decay.
Flossing fits perfectly between the teeth and molars, and if it is used properly, it is able to remove food debris from the interdental surfaces. You should make use of it in your daily oral hygiene routine and experience a cleaner and healthier smile.
The ‘I did not find it anywhere’ cannot be an excuse for not flossing, since in most pharmacies and supermarkets you can find this indispensable tool. There are many types of floss and you can easily find the one that best suits your needs.
Flossing prevents plaque, tartar, stains, cavities and gum disease. It is also important to mention that bacteria can cause bad breath and having food debris between teeth can make them look dirty; therefore, the flossing not only helps improve the appearance of your mouth, but also it helps your dental and overall health.
Did you last see at first glance a clean carpet and when you breathe you realize it was dirty? The same is case with teeth for the reason that the excess food left between them makes it impossible to view in the mirror. By flossing, you can find leftover food in the most unexpected spots in your mouth.
To have a good dental health, most of the dentists recommend the use of flossing DF at least twice a day after brushing your teeth. This cleaning should be done slowly, so that there is no injury to the gums.
For its function to make useful, you must use the following steps;
- Wash your hands before starting the process of flossing.
- Cut between 40 and 45 centimeters of floss.
- Leaving 6 cm free of yarn, grab it by both sides with the thumb and forefinger of each hand.
- Slide the floss between your teeth up and down and be careful not to do so abruptly and to get as close as possible to the gum.
