There are different recommendations on flossing and brushing teeth. Overall, flossing should not be entirely forgotten whatever time it is carried out.
Key takeaways:
– Practicing good oral hygiene is of utmost importance in keeping your teeth in good health.
– Flossing before brushing is recommended since it will ensure that people don’t forget this tedious task.
– Another school of thought recommends flossing AFTER brushing to make sure that fluoride gets into the spaces between the teeth.
