Do you floss before or after brushing teeth? I was told you floss first then brush. So I was doing it wrong for a very long time lol this is because you’re removing the toothpaste benefits if you floss last.

You floss before brushing because this helps get rid of the additional food particles and bacteria out between your teeth and gums. Honestly it seems to make sense even if you floss afterwards you actually are defeating the purpose of why you are flossing. Which is to aid your brushing to get rid of unwanted particles and bacteria in the mouth! I hope this helps.

I usually floss before brushing my teeth. It’s Not that my dentist told me so, I just read somewhere and it said it enhances the fluoride effectiveness. I am new to flossing my teeth and at first I would just started to floss whenever I was free but flossing before brushing also does a great job….

I usually floss then brush my teeth. If you don’t like doing it that way you can always mouthwash after flossing to get the benefit of fluoride that way.

I floss after brushing but it does make more sense to floss first. I have noticed that after I brush there is still some food left in between the teeth, so by flossing first you would be able to remove it by brushing after flossing. I willl give it a go too.

I floss before. Flossing removes plaque and other stuff that can make your teeth dirty again after you brush. So if you floss and then brush you’re sure to have the most thorough clean

Yes , I follow the same ,first floss to remove the unnecessary things in the mouth and then brush to coat the teeth and end it up with a mouthwash.

I used to brush first, but then I never felt like I had any energy left to floss. Now I floss first to get both done. Also, it removes the large chunks of food that could be stuck, allowing the brush to get the little pieces.

When I had braces I floss first, brushed , then use my waterpik. Since getting them removed I brush with an electric toothbrush and floss afterward, but I don’t rinse my mouth out with water. My final step is mouthwash and my teeth feel healthier and cleaner. I use the waterpik once in a while with a mouthwash and peroxide mixture depending on what I ate. My goal to brush after every meal and so far so good.

Oh really I’m flossing after toothbrush too, I’m doing it wrong as well. Well, we know better so next time we floss first before toothbrush ahhah
