Should you brush and rinse with mouthwash before or after flossing?

Thank you for asking! Let me answer your question by listing out what I do:

1. Floss;
2. “Waterpik” my teeth;
3. Brush (I use Oral B); and close off with
4. Gargling with Listerine Mint

Prior to this routine, my gums were swollen, bleeding on occasion. After I implemented it, they’re all normal and my dentist beams.

You should use mouthwash after flossing. That way the mouthwash, which often contains fluoride, can move between the gaps of your teeth and improve your oral health.

My personal order:
Brush
Floss
Rinse with mouthwash

I cannot claim that's 100%, but I really enjoy that and it works for me, so take it for what it's worth 🙂

I've read that you should floss then brush. I think brushing twice is a bit overkill, but if that's what you prefer it might not do any harm.
