My logic is that I wash away all \u2018debris\u2019 by brushing after.<br \/>\nI\u2019ve just googled this and it seems people are divided &#8211; the benefit of flossing after and before you rinse is to get toothpaste between your teeth.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Rebeca S.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Before I brush.

Flossing removes and loosens any bits in the teeth; the brushing afterwards is a refreshing cleanse. I also use a very soft brush, as the point of cleaning your teeth is to massage and stimulate the gums. Brushing too hard or with hard bristles can, over time, damage the tooth enamel and the gums.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gail U.
