We hear it all the time: “I brush twice a day, isn’t that enough?”
The short answer: No.
The “In-Between” Danger Zone
Imagine washing your hands but never washing between your fingers. That is what happens when you skip flossing.
A toothbrush bristles can only reach the front, back, and top of your teeth. They cannot get between them. This means if you don’t floss, 40% of your tooth surface remains dirty every single day.
