Brushing and then flossing and then mouthwashing with listerine or similar to it, is the right way.
Flossing should be used to remove what the brush couldn’t reach, and they advise us to floss before brushing!!

yes my dads a dentist and says floss the ones you want to keep. If you don’t floss your teeth will rot out and you will have to either get implants. So floss your teeth. You don’t want implants my aunt got them and she said they hurt so bad.

I watched some other videos and they are very nice, so great job Michelle, but on this one I had some little concern.

Maybe my tone in my first post wasnt totally correct, because I find it very positive that someone takes some time and explains the necessity of oral hygiene. And on that specific model it is hard to show (impossible) how to floss altogether correct, because you cant pass under the contact point of the teeth (the teeth are not separated on that model) and actually go under the gum line. And if you want to manipulate with the floss correct the model should be fixed to.

I wasn’t talking about floss or not to floss. I was talking about the technique. If you hold the floss like that it is most likely that you will cut your gums, and they will bleed, whether they are healthy or not. She is holding the floss way to much apart, and she is forcing it with to much pressure into the gums.
So you must definitely floss your teeth, but not the same way, the basics are alright, but overall it is not totally correct.
By the way I am a dental surgeon.

BY THE WAY IF they still bleed from flossing OR brushing after a week or 2 then go to your dentist something is wrong and you need to be checked out

no it wont be bleeding gum’s. once your gum’s get USE to flossing! they toughen up and the bleeding stops after flossing for about a week or so. IF they bleed when you do floss at first this means you have plaque buildup between your teeth. so flossing like the way she is showing IS correct and safe, dentist told me so.

If you floss your teeth like that you will end up with bleeding gums all the time (because of cutting with the flos into your gums)
