Shellard Lane Dental

Your toothbrush cleans the front, back, and chewing surfaces of your teeth — but floss helps clean in between where your brush can’t reach. Skipping flossing can allow plaque to build up, which may lead to cavities, bad breath, and gum disease over time.

Helpful flossing tips:
✔️ Be gentle — don’t snap the floss into your gums
✔️ Curve the floss around each tooth in a “C” shape
✔️ Don’t forget the very back teeth
✔️ Floss once a day for healthier gums and a cleaner smile 😊

Not a fan of regular floss? Try floss picks or a water flosser to make it easier!
