Re: Caring for your teeth

I hate using floss at it always catches on my fillings, shreds and is difficult to get out after

I always use interdental brushes instead, they are a lot easier....

No need to worry over it Moli, I've had two crowns and didn't feel a thing....

Re: Caring for your teeth

I don't enjoy flossing either, necessary evil I think. Due for my checkup next month. I don't mind the dentist but I cannot stand going to the hygienist who, in my opinion, gets great pleasure from giving big sighs and viciously attacking the plaque. I put off going to the dentist so I can avoid her.
