Aren't you supposed to floss before brushing to get all the nasty stuff out then brush it away?

Floss
Brush
Mouthwash

Put Listerine in waterpik
Use waterpik
Take shower
Brush teeth


Had an oral hygienist tell me that there should be 15-30 minutes between mouthwash and brushing or eating to allow it to do its job. I took that and ran with it.

I get my teeth cleaned twice a year for the past 40+ years

They clean, scrub and brush
Then floss
Then rinse with fluoride

I’ll do what the pros do

You are supposed to brush last. When you brush, you give your teeth a fluoride treatment. Washing afterward reduces its effectiveness.

as an aside, my dentist once said, "you only have to floss the teeth you want to keep".

I only brush. Mouthwash I’ll use before going and I don’t floss.
