Its flat shape makes it easy to use, and the wax coating  ensures it glides effortlessly, leaving your mouth feeling fresh and healthy.

Understanding how to use floss is easy and super effective when done right. Here's how to floss: Start by cutting about 18 inches of floss and wrapping the ends around your middle fingers, leaving a little slack. Gently slide the floss between each tooth, going just below the gum line. Make a "C" shape with the floss against each tooth’s surface to disrupt plaque and clean thoroughly. To keep your smile in top shape, floss daily—your teeth (and your dentist) will thank you!

The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends flossing before brushing. Flossing first helps remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth, so when you brush afterward, you remove any debris removed during flossing. By flossing first, you're giving your toothbrush the best chance to clean your teeth thoroughly and leave your mouth feeling fresh.

The best practice is to floss at least once a day—and honestly, it’s all you need to keep hard to reach areas in top shape. Whether you prefer doing it in the morning or before bed, just make it part of your daily routine. Flossing once a day helps remove plaque and food particles that brushing alone might miss, keeping your smile healthier and brighter.
