But you are already headed in the right direction! Since you are already getting in your mouth and flossing . . . why not add all of your teeth. : ) I know for me, my molars need the extra attention (per my dental hygienists)!

So i think you should floss<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Martha Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Flossing is flossing. It\u2019s important to get the last of the plack that has build. Do your best and release the need to be perfect. There is also different devises to help with flossing. Your local drug store may have floss sticks which does the job perfectly on every tooth. Another option that\u2019s more eco-friendly but a little bit more expensive for one time purchase is called a water pick. It\u2019s an at home jet of water that is reminiscent of when you would find in a dentist office.  Lastly, using some mouth wash that targets your teeth more than your breath with be a good strong finish no matter what you choose. And if you don\u2019t like this, call dentist dentist and ask. Wish you the best.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Mariah E.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">You need to do all and get into both teeth grooves of each tooth. It can be a struggle to get the back ones but that&#39;s usually where gunk hides and it&#39;s so important for your health. Dental health affects your heart, your digestive system and your lungs!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Marija G.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I think you should really try to reach those teeth in the back too. Because they are the ones which are often overlooked when brushing your teeth, exactly because of that hard reachability. So I would definitely say: try to floss there even more thoroughly than in the front if somehow possible, your dental health will thank you and you\u2018ll have just as bright a smile at fifty as you have now!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Ruth Y.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I would say they are as equally as important as getting the front teeth, if not more. We can\u2019t really see if food lodges there unless is big enough. So flossing is super helpful to get the spots we can\u2019t see very well. I\u2019d suggest starting from the back to the front when you floss. That way you\u2019ll do the easier ones at the end!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Heather N.
