- Start with 18 inches of floss (waxed or un-waxed) wrap it around your middle fingers.
- Grasp the floss tightly with your thumbs and forefingers and gently guide it between your teeth.
- When the floss reaches the gum line, form a C shape to follow the contours of the tooth.
- Hold the floss firmly against the tooth, and move the floss up and down.
- Repeat the entire process on all your teeth *even those molars!
