🦷😱 Stop the flossing fails! Dr. Spiker from Cosmetic Dental Associates is here to set the record straight on the RIGHT way to floss! Watch for a step-by-step guide to a sparkling smile.
I use to floss this way and my gums receded, I do the c around the sides of the teeth but don’t go up to the gum line and my teeth are in really good health.
Don't do this. I flossed my teeth Like that for six months and my gums started to receive. After getting back to normal flossing my gums are not receiving anymore
Do NOT do this. I am turning 79 this year, and I've never flossed a day in my life. I have one of the healthiest teeth my dental hygienist has ever seen. All you need to do is brush well, use mouthwash, and don't get addicted to sugar.
Didn’t know that everybody were such babies about flossing. Just get floss pics. You can do this easily on all of your teeth and get deep in the gums with those and rinse it quickly. I don’t use the string floss because of that. And literally does not hurt even a little bit after a couple of days. Y’all seem to be fine with the concept of food, literally rotting under your gums. Which it is. Floss correctly and you’ll be shocked at how much shit you’re gonna pull out from under your teeth at night. If you want a real motivator, just try smelling the crap that comes out on the floss at the end of the day. You will never want to leave that shit in your mouth again. It’s gross, but maybe you need to be acquainted with the gross you’re lettinggo in in your body.
The bleeding goes away, the pain goes away, and now with 0 blood supply going to the tooth, the tooth rots away, then you go to the dentist anyway for a tooth pulling, a cap, and soon veneers. Or you can do the minor flossing he showed in the beginning, brush your teeth, and save your retirement money from the dentist aside from cleanings. My dentist told me the truth behind flossing this way, it's all about taking your money.
A dentist was struggling to floss a fake set of teeth that weren’t in an actual mouth. And you want me to get my hand in my mouth to be able to floss properly. Lmao
As some one who’s gums bled a lot believe this man that flossing keeps gums healthy. I brushed my teeth three times a day and gargled listerene nightly but only flossed like every three months 😅 and my gums bled all the time when I brushed them. After flossing for about 3 months straight daily it stopped! And my breath was much fresher!
I feel like we're told one way, then in five years, it changes, and the dentist wants you to do something different. This happens with what toothpaste and toothbrush to use. How to brush or how to floss. Make up your mind.
Best thing to do is just get non alchohol anti bacterial mouthwash, i used to floss like a madman because my teeth are tight so everything loves getting stuck but with that mouthwash it keeps them clean af and you notice how much easier it is to floss
