Are You Flossing Correctly?

Flossing is a key factor in maintaining your gingival health! Check out these tips from the American Academy of Periodontology to make sure your flossing correctly:

  1. Wrap about 18 inches of floss around both of your middle fingers
  2. Tightly hold the floss with your thumbs and forefingers
  3. Curve the floss into a “C” shape around the tooth and gently rub up and down
  4. Keep it going for every tooth
