Ever feel like you’re doing everything right but still get hit with “you have a cavity” at your checkup? 🦷
Brushing is great, but it’s only half the battle. Think of it this way: your teeth have five surfaces. Brushing only cleans three of them! The other two surfaces, the ones pressed against your neighbors, are “floss-only” zones.
Why flossing is a non-negotiable:
• Prevent “Hidden” Cavities: Plaque loves to hide between teeth where bristles can’t reach.
• Save Your Gums: Flossing removes bacteria that cause inflammation and Gingivitis.
• Brighter Smile: It prevents the buildup of yellow tartar along the gumline.
• Fresh Breath: Food trapped between teeth eventually causes odors that brushing alone won’t fix.
It only takes 2 minutes a day to save your smile for a lifetime. Have you flossed today?
