I feel like the more you floss, them more you need to floss.

While tooth brushing removes plaque from tooth surfaces, it can't do the entire job of removing plaque.

Should you floss first or brush first?

I'll do a thorough flossing before bed a feels good. Maybe during the day after eating corn or meat. Referring to the dental thread, I learned my lesson.
As a kid my mom used to yell at me, "floss your teeth, you can plant onions in your plaque!"
- If you floss meat hours after eating, make sure you smell the floss just to remind yourself how better off you are without that in your mouth overnight.mg33

You can "pick", either with one of those water picks or tooth picks. My folks have been doing that their entire lives and never had any tooth problems. It's all about not letting junk stay there.
I try to floss daily, but catch myself dismissing it when I am tired, stressed, drank, etc. It's good, though, you can feel it when you don't do it (and my gums will bleed if I don't do it often).
Fun stuff.

I like it when I get a proper bleeder

I keep floss at my desk at work, and I buy floss that's comfortable to use. Seems simple, but so many people buy the cheapest shit and that makes the process more painful than it has to be.

1 - 2 times a day (after lunch and dinner), just a habit now really , something I do before brushing. I use those flossers, not the string shit.

7-8..10 times a day, maybe more, 15 times a day

Never flossed in my life. Dentist three years ago said I had some of the best teeth he'd seen for my age.
I've never drank fizzy drinks or ate sweets or much sugar, I guess it's that... but fuck flossing.
- convert to this though -
http://www.amazon.co…******** - not trying to fight or anything, but there's no way you could go on without flossing your whole ilfe and not have serious plaque between those thingsmonospaced
- even after a couple of days there's some buildup that no brush, sonicair, whatever can get to, and it accumulates in small layersmonospaced
- Well I'm not lying..
I do pull coconut oil now and then******** - Hmmm, maybe your dentist... eh forget itmonospaced
- Happy for you.monospaced
- Yes, forget it. Don't be jealous********

At least once a day, but sometimes twice. I have a pocket in one of my gaps that just holds onto things, so I have to floss almost every time after i eat.

Every single day. Seriously! I call myself the "Floss Boss."
This is not a joke. I'm OCD about flossing.
Sometimes twice a day.
