    I know. I can only floss once a day because of all the time it takes. Yes, they do make flossing toothbrushes that make the job easier, but it’s still a 15-20 min job. Flossing twice is something I can only do with a significant amount of free time on my hands.

    I know what you mean. They do make something called a flossing toothbrush which does work for molars. I’m still getting used to mine, but it does make it easier to get to.

    I find the molars are the hardest to floss so hard to get the floss in between then

    @solutionstoliveby thanks for the advice! Every time I’d floss my teeth I would bleead, and I started thinking I wasn’t doing it correctly. So now I know my gums will get use to flossing more often =)

    Flossing is very essential for a good oral health.
    And I praise this video because it’s going to tell people very clearly the way people can floss their teeth at home.

    I imagine a future where nanobots maintain and repair your teeth since your young……brushing teeth will have more about removing the big amount of plaquebuildup.

  14. SonaSmartChild says:

    @XXloverbabeXX1 No because the thread will snap off and it will get stuck into your tooth…

  15. SonaSmartChild says:

    @raser636 First you brush, then floss, then brush again, then listerine mouth wash..

  16. ProtonRS says:

    @raser636 Most seem to recommend flossing first.

  17. XXloverbabeXX1 says:

    can we use threadth

  18. raser636 says:

    what comes first? Floss or brushing? 

  19. CharlieC213 says:

    i know flossing is good but if it couses gaps do the teeth fixup?

  20. david0487 says:

    how in the world you want me to reach in the back of my mouth?

  21. visionimagify says:

    It sucks, but you have to do it.  Trust me. I have two molars gone on my bottom right and one tooth that needs a filling when I get enough money up. I use to hate flossing, because it cut my gums, but my teeth were suffering and I didn’t brush for a while. Now I know better and brush my teeth with flossing with twice a day flossing and 3 times a day brushing.
