You don't have to floss all your teeth, only the ones you want to keep
Why do I need to floss?
Most cavities and gum disease begin between your teeth, where bristles of your toothbrush just can't reach. That's why it's vital to your dental health that you floss at least once a day to remove plaque from between your teeth.
The correct technique
Wind about 18 inches around the middle fingers of each hand, leaving about five inches between your hands. Pinch the floss between your thumbs and index fingers, and gently guide it between your teeth, using a side-to-side motion. Pull it tightly into a C shape around the side of your tooth.
