The only way to this is to floss. I have to do it. It\u2019s not an option, it\u2019s a need. A necessity. And, tbh, the BEST way to get me to floss would be a picture of Beyonc\u00e9 reminding me to do it. Posted on my bathroom mirror. Always ready to remind me. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Javier P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">For as long as I\u2019ve been brushing my teeth, I\u2019ve been a good brusher. I received endless compliments on just how white my teeth were. This habit was learned and reinforced both by having a mom who was super cognizant of teeth hygiene and by having the accountability of my orthodontist while having braces. Then something happened &#8211; my braces came off and I moved out of my mother\u2019s house 1,000 miles away left to schedule my own dentist appts. My job became stressful, and I stopped getting ready for bed, including brushing my teeth. I just slept where I dropped. I was living in an unhealthy cycle, and I remembered, at my best, I was the best toothbrusher I knew. I was determined to get back to that. However, now my newly found dentist suggested I also floss nightly. Flossing was an even higher reach than brushing. I knew that if I was focused and determined enough to floss at night, I was crushing it in other things I probably put more of my attention toward. Flossing became my bar, then my constant, then a basic expectation. Now I can\u2019t imagine a world where I wouldn\u2019t floss my pearly whites. It\u2019s just self love man. Keep at it until it\u2019s second nature. Soon the uncomfortable push becomes the comfortable necessity!  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Monica I.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I keep my floss in my bedroom instead of in my bathroom, so when I\u2019m procrastinating and feeling restless, I\u2019ll see it and reach for the floss.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Randy Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">First mix it with other habits. Second, take a step back to think about how much time it takes&#8230;not much.  Get good floss that is easy to handle and feels good between teeth.  Lastly, as strange as it sounds, watch a YouTube video on the best way to floss.  There are little tricks to make it easier and get the most benefit<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Terrance F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I keep floss right next to my tooth paste in the top bathroom drawer. I can not get one out without seeing the other. Make time for flossing just becomes part of your routine.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kelly Q.
