Have a set time to do it in your evening routine. I always do it right before I get in the showe while I wait for the water to warm up.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Mads Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Put the floss beside the toothbrush.  I was once told that it isn\u2019t forgetting.  It is choosing not to do something because we think we don\u2019t have time.  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Claudilene C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I like to tie to something I do every morning so I\u2019m sure to remember. For me, I also go to the bathroom when I wake up. I have my toothbrush and toothpaste in the bathroom already, so I wash my hands and go for it<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Ryan B.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Ugh . This one is hard. I think moving up in the evening closer to dinner helps. Waiting until I\u2019m about to get into bed makes it harder. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Jon O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Maybe move the habit in  front of brushing your teeth? And move your floss next to your toothbrush. Doing them both back-to-back usually helps me \ud83d\udc4d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Gertrude U.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Are you forgetting to floss or are you choosing not to? Tonight I almost didn\u2019t floss my teeth because I\u2019m tired and my laziness almost got the best of me. I reminded myself that being self-disciplined means pushing laziness to the side and continuing to do the job you agreed to do. Committing is easy, flowing through is difficult. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Ruben O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Would it help to take a piece of floss out of the container before you put your toothpaste on your toothbrush and leave it on the counter as a visual reminder?  This has helped me make it part of my daily routine.  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Theresa J.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Keep your tooth brush, tooth paste and your floss next to<br \/>\nEach other that way you will remember all 3 together and you won\u2019t do 1 without doing all 3!  Because if you make them accessible together it will be easier to remember all 3!!! <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Jeremy G.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Put the floss right next to your toothbrush or light switch so you see it and then make it part of one of your routines <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Priteche Q.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I started a flossing habit years ago, and after a while, my teeth only felt clean after doing it. There\u2019s a little air flow in those tiny little crevices. Now if I don\u2019t floss, my teeth feel glued together and I know that\u2019s going to cause me pain and dental bills if I don\u2019t take care of myself. I also feel like it cuts down on bad breath. When I do my nightly rountine, I start with flossing, so I\u2019m less likely to skip it and my toothbrush can do it\u2019s job better.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Baptiste O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I organize the routine step by step  so I add \u201cfloss\u201dthen brush my teeth as an habit  so I press play and start to put done every time I do.<br \/>\nIf you don&#39;t want to use the app I suggest to left what you use to floss beside the brush <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Wencke F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Place the dental floss next to the toothbrush.  Wash and floss your teeth right after eating the last meal.  Thanks to the fact that you will not leave this activity at the end of the day, you will not be so tired and you will not be tempted to eat something for the night.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Anton Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Floss BEFORE you brush your teeth &#8211; make it a habit to floss beforehand so that you don\u2019t forget and skip over it after you\u2019ve brushed your teeth. This was recommended to me by my dentist!<br \/>\n(I think it also helps to leave the floss out in a visible spot next to your toothbrush as a visual reminder)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Livio P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I never used to remember either! Until I added it in the app! It\u2019s in my evening routine and now I do it every day. Immediately after brushing.
