I would floss once every few months, but never too seriously. then last month I went to the dentist and she told me I had excess gum tissue as a result ofnot flossing (no cavities, white teeth, no plaque issues, great bone structure, but excess gum growth..) I had never noticed this and didn't realize itwas an issue cuz I couldnt really see it. she had to essentially, remove the gum tissue with that little hook tool she has. One of the most painful dentalexperiences (if not the most since ive never had any major work done besides braces) ive ever had. When I rinsed my mouth wouldn't stop bleeding.

I now floss every night. Sometimes twice if the mood strikes me. You might THINK you have great oral hygiene but uh... Wait til you get that periodontaltreatment.

i floss like every 3 days...hard to pick up the habit...i rinse with listerene(sp?) and brush w/ toothpaste every night and day...i also brush withouttoothpaste a few times throughout the day if i can...

I don't floss because I don't have any floss...

to tell the truth. i haven't flossed since the last time i got my teeth cleaned. which was about a year and a half ago. it truly sucks not having dentalinsurance or any insurance at that.

I have once now - after one of these posts I went out and got some floss and had a shot. Can't say any miracles happened.

I asked my dentist about it at my checkup last year and he said there was no point - he would tell me when I need to start.
