  • Is it really possible to floss PAST the gum line?????

  • @NatalieDumDooDumDum My apologies in advance - wanted to say that in addition to removing plaque/ bacteria that cause tooth decay, you are also helping yourself avoid gum disease & the problems it causes. I'm 32 y/o & as a result of brushing but not flossing too much when younger, I am now facing VERY serious & expensive surgeries. $10K alone for gum/bone grafting, which will help to keep my bottom front teeth from falling out as a re: of gum/bone loss. I don't want others to go thru this!

  • Why is the gum so red? Like if you see it! Btw I got braces. Their okay

  • @TheChills100

    Yeah , U'll get use to it and it wont hurt if u do all the time. Its normal (=

  • @TheChills100 i dont think so

  • @4getmenot753 No, flossing does not create gaps between your teeth. Let me put it to you this way: I'm 32 y/o, had braces as a teenager & brushed but didn't floss much. Never thought gum disease would be in my future. As a result, I now have severe gum & bone loss, esp. in the lower front. When gums recede, the teeth become longer, and gaps (where the gum and bone should be, anchoring the teeth) become very noticeable. The moral: floss & you won't have gaps. DON'T FLOSS & U WILL HAVE GAPS!

  • @TheChills100 Yes but its not the gum line, its the gum pocket, the gum line is the spot where the floss can't penetrate through anymore so do it carefully.

  • Its crazy that he can floss without using his hands.

  • @TheChills100 yes, if you have healthy gums you can floss past the gum lines. nasty i know but its hygenic

  • @TheChills100 yes
