#Floss Threaders

As a dental hygienist, I often hear patients say they floss every day, but when I ask them to demonstrate how they do it, 99% are not actually going underneath the gums. Flossing this ‘deep’ will NOT cause your gums to recede 🥲 #flossing #demonstration #dentalhygienist #oralhygiene #oralcare

Did you know that the floss you choose actually matters? As a dental hygienist, I love that Costco now carries the REACH Mint Waxed Floss 5-Pack Value Pack! There’s 500 yards so it’s going to last you a very long time, and I use it in my office because it glides through tight contacts but still grabs plaque! @reachfloss @costco #reachpartner #reach #reachfloss #costcofinds #pfasfree

Here are 3 things you can use to floss when you have braces :) 1. Floss Threader & Dental Floss - Helps with areas of tight spaces 2. Superfloss @oralb - There’s a stiffened end that helps to get around the wire and in between your teeth. 3. Ortho Flosser - This does not adapt to your teeth as well but this is a quick on-the-go option. Water flosser is helpful in maintaining oral hygiene but is not a REPLACEMENT for traditional flossing where the floss string cleans the contact points.

Don’t skip on flossing your molars!! I know, I know, molars are the trickiest part but hear me out. As a dentist of 7 years, the majority of cavities I am fixing are on the back teeth. I want to show you the easiest way I have found to hold the floss and reach my molars. Give it a few tries before you throw in the towel. This is something that you will get better with over time. And if you just can’t figure it out, a floss pick or WaterPik will do just fine! P.S. Don’t forget to floss behind your last tooth! Have you been flossing your molars the right way?

Even the best brushers and flossers often miss one spot—behind the very back teeth! Just because there’s no tooth behind it doesn’t mean it doesn’t need flossing. Don’t forget to reach all the way back 🦷✨ #floss #flossing #flosstubersofinstagram #flosstube #flossy #dentalfloss #flosslikeaboss #flossyourteeth #flossin #dentalhygienist #dentalhygiene #oralhealth

Need to know how to Floss Like a Pro?! I got you! 1️⃣ Use ~18 inches of floss 2️⃣ Wrap around fingers + hold tight 3️⃣ Slide gently between teeth ( try not to snap up and hit your gums if you can 🤷🏼‍♀️) 4️⃣ Curve into a C-shape 5️⃣ Glide up and down on each side of the teeth 6️⃣ Use a clean section each time 7️⃣ Don’t forget the back teeth! 👏🏼 your 👏🏼gums 👏🏼should 👏🏼not 👏🏼bleed👏🏼 “What if they do bleed Dr. Foster?” That usually means that they need more love, not less. Floss more routinely my friend. Or… lay off of the curls at the gym and be gentle 😜 #floss #teeth #smile #dentist

This feels way better than regular floss 😳 This expanding dental floss gets deeper and leaves that extra clean feeling. Glide. Expand. Clean. Small step, big difference. ✨ Click the link in bio 💬 Comment “Floss” for the product link

If the technique is wrong, the plaque (biofilm layer) will not be removed. It’s also very important to use this WITH floss - not as a substitute @coslusofficial LINKED IN BIO 🫶🏻 #oralcareroutine #waterfloss #waterflossing #cosluswaterflosser #cavityprevention

Have you ever wondered how floss actually works… and why it’s SO important? 👀✨ Well… this is it. Floss reaches where your toothbrush can’t. Between your teeth = where plaque hides, builds up, and turns into bigger problems. Skipping floss = letting bacteria sit rent-free 😬 Flossing = protecting your smile, your breath, and your confidence. 🤍 dental hack teeth tips protect your smile #dentalasmr #floss #boston #dentaloffice #dentalhealth
