Dental Floss Surrey

Your gums may bleed or be sore for the first five or six days that you floss.  This should stop once the plaque is broken up and the bacteria has gone.  If the bleeding does not stop, tell your Surrey dentist.  It may be that you are not flossing correctly or your teeth and gums need a more thorough clean by your dentist or hygienist.

If you have trouble using floss you can use a floss holder or an interdental cleaning aid.  Interdental cleaning aids include woodsticks or small interdental brushes used to remove plaque from between the teeth.  Your dentist or hygienist can explain how to use these properly.
