How To Use

Dental FlossYoure flossing. Great. But in order for dental floss to effectively remove plaque from your teeth, you need to be sure youre using the correct technique.

Because youll be putting your fingers into your mouth, be sure to wash your hands before you reach for the floss. Then just follow these steps:Use enough floss. Break off a piece about 18 inches long. That sounds like a lot, but you want enough to keep a clean segment in place as you move from tooth to tooth. Wrap most of the floss around either the middle finger or the index finger of one hand, whichever you prefer, and a small amount onto the middle or index finger of the other hand. (Using the middle finger leaves your index finger free to manipulate the floss.)

Slide between teeth.

- Gently slide the floss between the teeth in a zigzag motion and be careful not to let the floss snap or pop between teeth.

- Form a C. Make a C shape with the floss as you wrap it around the tooth. Then carefully pull the floss upward from the gum line to the top of the tooth.

- Roll along. As you move from one tooth to the next, unroll a fresh section of floss from the finger of one hand while rolling the used floss onto the finger of the other hand.
