Flossing helps to remove plaque and tartar buildup between the teeth. If the plaque bacteria are not removed, it can result in swollen gums and gingivitis. It can also cause bleeding gums. Plaque buildup can result in bacteria that produce acids. The acids attack the teeth and destroy the enamel. The result is tooth decay and cavities.
Many people tend to ignore flossing as part of their daily routine. Flossing is imperative when it comes to maintaining healthy oral hygiene. Flossing helps to keep healthy teeth and prevent several diseases. Flossing daily can prevent cavities and other gum diseases like gingivitis. Failure to floss leaves the mouth vulnerable to a host of dental conditions.

To maintain good oral hygiene, you must floss daily. At least, it would be best if you floss once a day. You can floss as many times as you brush a day. It will help you remove plaque, bacteria, and food particles. Like brushing, flossing time varies for different people.
