Do you floss?

I just had a Dentist check up yesterday and I was wondering how many people actually floss.

Re: Do you floss?

I must admit I really don't and I walways feel so guilty about it, yet never get around to doing it.

Everyday. I used to not and then I was seeing the dentist 4x a year and I hated it, so I listened to them and now I'm down to 3x year.Chat Icon Chat Icon

Similar story here. I didn't do it often, but never had teeth problems... time went on and out of nowhere, I started getting multiple cavities every time I was at the dentist, needed crowns, all of that - it was enough to convert me. Happily, I haven't had a new cavity in over 2 1/2 years now since I've been flossing regularly Chat Icon

Re: Do you floss?

Not as often as I should. I've been flossing like once a week, if that much. It's bad, I know.

Re: Do you floss?

I do now. I have to have below the gumline cleaned because I wasn't flossing. It was not fun. SO now I floss everynight before bed. I am mad at myslef for not doing it before. I could have prevented all my problems if I just took an extra minute each night.

I will admit that I HATE flossing. It's very painful for me...which I'm told is due to NOT flossing. Chat Icon

Re: Do you floss?

I floss and use a interdental brush. I had 2 root canals and a cavity along my gumline, no way do I want to go thru that again!!!

I floss everyday. Usually after every meal. I'm a bit OCD about it.

Re: Do you floss?

I probably do it every two days on average. There are days when I floss a few days in a row though.
