It’s not a timing thing. It may take more than 2 minutes for my whole mouth. If you’ve been to the dentist that is a good standard when they floss you

Not long, cleaning your teeth shouldn’t take a long time, a few minutes, twice each day should suffice. I personally prefer to use a small interdental brush rather than dental floss or tape as the brush gives a more thorough clean, getting into all those spaces, large & small. I found that I kept getting dental floss stuck between tight spaces which I’ve not found to be an issue with interdental brushes which also come in various sizes to accommodate my different sized gaps. Worth a try plus it aids heart health keeping your mouth clean & healthy.
