Flossing your teeth

Why do so many people avoid flossing their teeth?  Most of us can come up with lots of excuses as to why we don’t.  1.  We say food never gets stuck in my teeth.  2.  I don’t know how to floss.  3.  I’m not coordinated enough to floss.  An interesting fact from the British Dental Foundation states that the main things people use to floss are earrings, business cards, keys, matchsticks, screwdrivers or even bank notes.  We don’t just floss just to get rid of food, we do it to get rid of plaque and to keep our mouths healthy.  Flossing regularly helps prevent gum disease and tooth loss.  Water flossers are also an incredibly easy way to clean between braces and bridges and children love them.  We decided to try the Waterpik, cordless flosser at the Bridge Dental Clinic and have been amazed at how well they work.  Many of our patients now use them and really like them.  We therefore just wanted to share with you, that we stock them at Amazon’s price £41.  We also have a very limited stock of the family size flossers.  Our aim is to encourage more people to use them and help prevent gum disease.  If you would like one do get in touch with us on 01481 245357
