Tip Sheet
| Flossing may be a hassle, but consider this: Since a full 40% of our tooth surfaces are between the teeth, where a brush can't reach, if we ONLY brush, we're only getting 60% (a little over half) of our teeth clean. Try that with your clothes or dishes! Tip Credibility: 10 (Best Tip!) |
| Flossing is little known outside North America. Concentrate on regular teeth cleaning. As far as any form of cost-benefit analysis goes, flossing is a bonus, but far from top of a prioritised list. Tip Credibility: 5 |
| Flossing is a must. I make sure all my kids floss after every meal. Of course, some of my kids do anything to get out of flossing and succeed...but not more than 2-3 days :) Tip Credibility: 4 |
