Healthy gums don’t bleed, and are not painful to floss at all.
I’m in my 30s and only recently learned flossing technique and got my gums healthy. Flossing used to take so long and always involved a lot of bleeding no matter how delicate I was.
These days I’m absolute savage with floss and interdental brushes and never have any blood or pain.
Once you get your gums healthy you’ll be disgusted at yourself for ever not flossing. The amount of disgusting I can floss out on an almost daily basis is insane.
Plus you’re breath will not smell gross anymore.
It’s worth committing to the habit of flossing. Trust me.
wow, didn’t know this was a thing. Now I have a journey to try to discover the best option out there and get it
I bought the Waterpik deluxe version a while go and have come to regret it. It works fine, but it’s noisy as hell. I’ve been told the Panasonic version is much nicer and quieter. I’ll be picking one up shortly because I don’t need a jackhammer sound in the bathroom every time I waterfloss my teeth.
Still, a water flosser is very much worth it. They clean well, and my dentist has remarked on how good everything looks with my gums when I’ve been using it regularly. Even if the Waterpik was all I could have, I would still keep using it despite the noise.
