Answers:
If you floss twice a day for a week, the bleeding will completely stop in 5-7 days!. You could also try interdental brushes, these can be easier to use with braces (they are like tiny toothbrushes on wire that get in the gaps easily) you can get them in any supermarket or chemist!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Of course you should!! The same thing happened to me!. You will bleed a little bit for the first few times, but it is very important that you do floss!. I had braces when I was a teenager and didn't floss!. It messed up my teeth more with all the food that had been sitting in my teeth for so long!.

Carefully but do it!. Go for a cleaning at the dentist also!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
