There are several ways to clean between your teeth and flossing is the most common. Flossing removes plaque and food particles from between teeth and under the gum line. Your dentist or hygienist can show you the right way to floss. It may feel clumsy at first, but don&#8217;t give up! It takes time to get the hang of it.<\/p><p>The following suggestions may help:<\/p><p>If you haven&#8217;t been flossing, you may experience sore or bleeding gums for the first five or so days that you floss. This should stop once the plaque is broken up and the bacteria are removed. If bleeding does not stop, see your dentist.<\/p><p>If you have trouble handling floss, you may wish to try some other ways to clean between your teeth. There are a number of products, known as interdental cleaners that you can use. These include water flossers, pre-threaded flossers, tiny brushes and wooden plaque removers. Talk with your dentist or hygienist about which product may be most helpful to you.<\/p><hr style=\"height: 1px; border-width: 0; color: gray; background-color: gray; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 70%;\" \/><h6><span id=\"copy\">Patient education content \u00a92020 American Dental Association.
