If I could only choose one between brushing and flossing, it would be flossing hands down.


I've actually heard dentists say this to patients. Flossing is much more important.

The correct answer is keep floss picks in your truck and your breifcase, then use it after meals!

Only after eating folds that get stuck in my teeth. Not enough.

Congrats on those clean teeth (that you will lose to gum disease).

Morning after brushing. A wise man once told me "If you don't take care of your gums, your teeth will leave you."

I keep floss at my desk at work. I floss after lunch every day during the week. I kind of get away from flossing on the weekends, but I floss when I think about it.

The only thing I have learned from this thread is that floss is a funny word

I floss when there is something that a toothpick can't reach. however, I get my teeth cleaned every 6 months.

Every night. A couple of years ago my hygienist recommended use of a gum stimulator tool...the little device with the curved metal handle and a pointed rubber tip. I've been using it daily since. My last few routine dentist visits for cleaning have gone really well. I wasn't in the chair for 15 minutes last time...hygienist worked on me for a bit and said 'not much for me to do here...see you in 6 months'. I also brush twice daily with Sonicare.

Exactly. always brush and rinse. Only skip flossing when hammered drunk or exhausted from being hammered drunk the night before. So 5-6 days a week.

I never floss. Too much of a pain in the arse. Brushing is good enough.

I have them several places at home, work, and in vehicles. After I eat anything, I floss with the pick, then I chew a piece of sugarless gum.
