Answers:
Use an oral irrigator!.
An oral irrigator is a device that is used to clear away food debris from the teeth using a pulsating water jet!. It is mostly used by people with braces (to replace dental floss), or periodontal problems or for the prevention of periodontal problems, cleaning the gingival sulcus!.
Brands include Waterpik, Oral-B OxyJet ,Oral Breeze,Viajet,Conair Interplak,HydroFloss etc!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

there is no easy way to get around using the floss threaders, its just something she will have to get used to!. hopefully you bought her some proxy brushes to get in between as well!. after a week or so she will become used to it and it will be second like second nature!. but you should not make a big deal out of it because she will also, and trust me its not hard just time consuming!. just do it before she goes to bed at night!. however GLIDE has a floss threader that also has the floss attached to it, so that's a lot easier!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
