  • Will flossing make your teeth have little gaps? Plz respond! Im getting braces...and an expander..

  • @4getmenot753 Flossing will not cause the gaps that you sometimes see in-between teeth.

  • will flossing with braces help if i have gumbuild up on the bottom of my teeth?

  • Definately! Flossing will allow your "gum build-up" to heal!

  • what if your gums are wearing away when you have braces? i floss everday and brush with a super soft tooth brush in circles. why is this happening?

  • I would discuss with your general dentist and orthodontist regarding your specific situation.

  • @brenchtoast44 probably your gums

  • @starfalco97 Using mouth wash is not as effective as flossing at all. Although the mouth wash kills germs, flossing is more important.

  • Ok I have a question the front bottom row of my teeth I have 1 tooth that feels like it has a piece of food or something in between it....But Ive flossed and theres nothigng there. What is it?

  • I agree with aznxdino. On the tag in my listerine mouthwash cover, it says "kills germs that cause bad breath, Plaque & the gum disease gingivitis". so does that mean i'm off the hook for flossing :D

  • Good videos. Is there any specific mouthwash you could recommend for people with periodontal problems? Could you please reply back. I would appreciate it very much. Thank you.

  • If i DOnt Floss can I use Mouthwash Everyday instead

  • do you have to floss under the brackets too and on top of all the teeth? flossing's such a pain. i'm just staring to do it, it's a big pain. :(
