Flossing is monotonous, but you’d be surprised what little food particles can hide between teeth, regardless of how vigorously you brush or how often you use mouthwash. If you can’t commit to this every day, at least try to set aside one day per week to floss.

There are other options for cleaning between your teeth. Floss is a good choice for many people, though, so ti is presented as dogma. You’ve gotta do SOMETHING to get the germs out from between your teeth. Ask your dentist or hygienist if there is anything else that might be suitable for you. You’d have to be shown exactly how to use it anyway, so ask.

Yes . Toothbrush bristles are much too large to pass between adjacent teeth and only floss can clean those areas . It comes in several flavors ,waxed or unwaxed ,thread or tape . If your teeth have very tight contacts ,I recommend Gortex tape because it slides so easily ,sold under tradename of Glide.
