Flossing is a method for removing bacteria and other debris that cannot be reached by a toothbrush. It generally entails a very thin piece of synthetic cord inserted and moved up and down between the sides of two adjoining teeth.

Floss removes plaque and debris that stick to teeth and gums. It also increases blood circulation in the gums. Flossing is the single most important weapon against plaque. And it's never too early to begin flossing once your child's baby teeth are fully erupted.

Daily flossing is an excellent and proven method for complementing your child's brushing routine and helping to prevent cavities, periodontal disease, and other dental problems later in life.
