Using dental floss is very important to clean between teeth where the toothbrush cannot reach. Dental floss helps prevent tooth decay and gum disease.

Correct Dental Floss Usage

  • Use dental floss at least once a day
  • Gently clean between each tooth
  • Be careful not to damage the gums
  • Use a clean section for each tooth gap with new floss

Types of Dental Floss

There are waxed, unwaxed, flavored and special dental floss for wide tooth gaps. Your dentist can recommend the most suitable one for you.
