Does anyone floss multiple times a day?

I sometimes do. As I’m building up my habit to floss every night, my focus is flossing once a day. I’m not sure if you can "overfloss" and damage your gum.

I usually don’t, as flossing even once makes me bleed (but that’s because I have a gum condition) and its best to give your mouth a break after brushing and flossing. Too much of it can wear down your teeth.

Yes, flossing does keel your teeth clean, have no bad breath for a rwally long time due to no food stuck between your teeth which boosts your confidence when talking.

Usually I only floss once before going to bed. But when I’ve eaten something with a lot of garlic or food that tends to get stuck between your teeth I’ll floss after that meal too.

It depends what you are throughout the day and how healthy your teeth are. Eating things that get stuck between your teeth requires you to floss maybe more more than once a day

Usually no, If I’ve eaten something that usually gets stuck in your teeth like seeds, nuts, popcorn etc I might go in with floss/toothpick if it is bothering me.

Its deffo possible, and deffo recommended x I have braces now so there’s this added importance to take care if my teeth, I’m using my brush and little chimney cleaner brush things but an failing to go in between teeth like I would with floss. In this case I just add to the focus of finding hidden spots and cleaning them. To floss is to look after gums as well as teeth too, so dont neglect them. Anyone can floss twice yh, or the braces equivalent :)))

I don’t because I’m the morning I’m very busy and yes, I could put 2 more minutes in to floss my teeth but I would much rather floss at night. Flossing at night means you can get everything out of your teeth from the day. In the morning all you might be getting out is some plaque. I usually take more than 2 minutes anyways because I have a permanent retainer in (a medal bar to keep my teeth straight) and it takes me a while to get the teeth behind the bar. I would recommend just doing it at night because it would save a little bit of time and it won’t hurt your teeth to just do it at night. Anyway I wish you good luck and I hope you have an amazing day :3)

I prefer to only floss at night. That way I get everything from the day out. Flossing at the beginning of the day and in the middle seems pointless, because you’ll get things stuck in there over the course of the day.

I have what they call double depression so self care is really hard for me. So right now I figured I’d start taking better care of my dental health. I use both the floss and brush my teeth reminders to push myself to do both. If I don’t do anything all day at least I can try harder to do these little tasks on this app. Baby steps ya know. My daughter has braces and it’s hard for her to floss so she uses a waterpik and what’s called interdental cleaners. The ones we get are called DenTek Slim Brush Interdental cleaners and those might really help you get between the teeth and braces. I really hope this helps. Best of luck to you.
