If I floss once per month, is that better or worse than flossing daily?!


Question: If I floss once per month, is that better or worse than flossing daily!?
I know flossing daily is the answer but I have a tough time fitting that into my schedule!. I figured that doing it once a month is better than nothing!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
the problem with not flossing daily is that the plaque will turn into tarter!. it takes ~ 24 hours for plaque to mineralized and get hard!. therefore, plaque sticking between your teeth stays in contact with the teeth and allows the bacteria to damage your teeth, cause cavities and prone to gum disease!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Is one minute too much to spare in your schedule!? When you brush, your toothbrush doesn't get in between teeth!. Flossing gets all that food in between your teeth!. if you leave this unattended, it can turn into plaque!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Can you spare one minute per day!?

Get some of the new "Floss picks!." I have them, use them, and they work great! It is a lot easier and more convenient to use than conventional floss!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Flossing once per month is better than nothing, but it is nowhere near enough!!!

Fitting flossing into your schedule isn't hard!. You just need to find some time when your hands are free!. I usually do it while I'm watching TV!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

u should really floss every day its bad if you dont!. doing it once a month is quitee pointless cause it just make your teeth worseWww@Answer-Health@Com

How can you not fit it into your schedule!? You must have one busy life where you can't spare a couple minutes!. Do it after you brush at night!. You do brush your teeth at night, right!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

I haven't flossed in my entire lif and my teeth are fine except some yellowing from smoking!. I never had a cavity and only had 1 tooth rot!. It was a wisdom tooth that didn't come through and rotted under the gums!. I don't think flossing is necisarry but you have to brush and use good mouthwash!. I use Listerine!. Its nasty but at least the denist tells me my chompers look good each time!.

If my girl started flossing while we was watching TV on my couch I'd kick her in the hip!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
