Inexpensive too. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Jacob N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">To be completely honest there are most definitely nights when I feel the same. However once I started getting into habit of flossing every night my teeth have felt cleaner. To get myself to floss I make sure that I grab a string of it before I even brush my teeth. It also helps to keep it right with your toothbrush and toothpaste. Another thing to mention is that I currently have Invisalign and so I have to brush after every single meal so on days when I think I may forget I leave the floss with them. A great way to remind yourself until you get in the habit is to leave a sticky note on your toothbrush simply saying \u201cfloss teeth\u201d I really hope that this helped with your problem and answered your question. Feel free to ask anything you need!\ud83d\ude0a<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Marie Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">My nightly routine is all stuff that\u2019s done in the bathroom so I\u2019m already there to floss and brush my teeth anyway. It\u2019s sometimes annoying but I would rather take proper care of myself tbh<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Melinda F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I tell myself that it&#39;ll take less than 2 minutes and that if I do this consistently (every day), my health benefits from it big time. Or I tell myself that it&#39;s not an option not flossing and again that it takes less than 2 minutes.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Ella T.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">It\u2019s fun for me to floss especially when I\u2019m able to take out those @)@\u201c&#x2F; that will end up to tooth-decay. I guess there is satisfaction in it especially in front of a mirror<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Alvin U.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I use the flosser picks and i keep one next to my bed. In case I&#39;m feeling lazy about doing it before i get into bed, i can grab it off my nightstand and floss laying in bed. It leaves me no excuse not to!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Walburga X.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">If I am already brushing my teeth, it&#39;s not a big deal to also floss.  I also find checking it off the list on the Fabulous app to be helpful right now.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Albert C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Honestly I don\u2019t even give myself a choice. When I go to brush my teeth and wash my face, I floss while I\u2019m there because it will only take a few minutes and will benefit me in the long run. For me the reward down the road is greater than than the 2 minutes I\u2019ll save staying in bed. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Aurore T.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Sometimes I have the same dilemma. Once I wanteched a video showing the bactieria thst live among our teeth and gums, how they multiply overnight and affect gums and teeth. I motivate myself by remembering that video. If that&#39;s not enough, I watch this type of videos again to find new motivation. Also, when I&#39;m tired, I still try to floss a bit of not throughly, and I say to myself that some flossing is better than no flossing. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Sami F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">That happens a lot. Honestly I just think about everything I ate that day and think \u201cdo I really want all that food stuck in <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Alfredo S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I set a time to go do all the face washing &amp; teeth brushing&#x2F;flossing I need to do. I make sure the time is before I typically get tired. If I\u2019m coning hone late I go straight to the bathroom to do all this THEN get comfortable. If I sit down first I always decide to just skip it &amp; go to sleep<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Ljiljana R.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I hate flossing at night too. I do it in the morning &#8211; makes me feel like I&#39;m doing a better job of getting rid of nasty morning breath. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Miguel C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I remind myself that dinner remnants are still stuck between my molars and if I don&#39;t take the 2 minutes to floss now then those tiny pieces of food will put me one step closer to gum disease and painful cavities.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kirk F.
