Flossing doesn’t need to be done as frequently as brushing, though it is important to floss at least once a day. Right before bed is a great time to do so.

• Take about 18 inches of floss, wrapping the floss around your fingers.
• Grasp the floss, pulled tightly, between your thumbs and index fingers.
• Gently insert the floss between each pair of teeth, using gentle back and forth motions to clean the teeth and gums. Make sure to go up above the gumline
• Floss between each of your teeth, being careful not to neglect the back molars. If necessary, clean the floss between insertions.
