Flossing is not every ones favorite thing to do, but for your health it is very important. Flossing removes food debris and plaque that a toothbrush can't reach. Plaque can cause tooth decay and can lead to gum disease, and gum disease can lead to a heart attack or a stroke. Flossing should be done daily. Many people floss while watching TV, or in the car on the way to work. No matter where you find the time to do it, just do it! It can add up to six years on your life and give you a beautiful smile. For more information on which floss you should use or how to floss contact your dental office.
