Why do I need to floss every day?

You need to floss every day to make sure that harmful plaque, food, and debris doesn’t build up between your teeth, which can happen if you rely on brushing alone. Even the best toothbrush can’t clean all of the hard to reach places between your teeth, and this is why you need to floss to thoroughly clean away plaque from your teeth.

• Fluoride to prevent decay
• Mint to leave your mouth feeling clean and fresh
• Wax coating for a smooth and easy clean
• Floss is narrower than tape for smaller spaces
• Cleans between the teeth and below the gum line

What is tooth decay?

Tooth decay is what happens when plaque is allowed to build up on your teeth, letting plaque acids attack your teeth and cause damage. When you’re suffering with tooth decay there are a few irritating symptoms you may experience, including:

• Sharp, occasional toothache, or a constant, dull toothache
• Sensitive teeth, which can cause pain when you eat hot, cold, or sugary foods
• Bad breath
• Black, brown, or grey spots appearing on your teeth
• An unpleasant taste in the mouth

You need to floss because it helps you to clean the parts of your teeth that your regular toothbrush can’t reach. Although brushing your teeth is essential when it comes to cleaning plaque and bacteria from your teeth, even the most sophisticated brushes can struggle to reach between your teeth and clean there. This is why you need to floss as a part of your everyday dental cleaning routine, at it helps to keep harmful plaque under control.
