Flossing your teeth
« on: June 24, 2015, 04:25:09 am »
When the dentist ask you how often do you floss, what do you say? Are
You honest or do you lie?

I tell the truth.  I floss, but not as often as I know I should.

I tell the truth, NEVER. I use a Water Pic that is much better.

When I was younger I would, now not so much. I do floss more these days but still not as often as I should.

I am honest and tell him I floss at least twice a day in between meals. I like to use the floss picks by plackers, they are really good.

Yeah, that's a good question. I only floss when I feel like there is something stuck between my teeth such as a popcorn or apple skin! So when the Hygienist asks me how often I floss, I tell the truth! I say "not as often as I should".

I am pretty honest with them. I am sure they would have been able to tell if I were lying or not back when my teeth were horrible. Now that I have gotten them fixed though I make sure to floss daily.

I am honest when they ask because they know the truth anyhow
I have found that using those floss sticks are better for me bc I will actually do it! And it's much easier anyhow!
