Our normal oral hygiene should consist of regular brushing and flossing. But how many of us are flossing after brushing our teeth?

What is the importance of flossing? and what does flossing mean?

According to Mosbys dental dictionary flossing is "the cleansing of interproximal tooth surfaces with stringlike, waxed or unwaxed dental floss or tape".

Let me share to you an article by Regina Posadas from Manila Bulletin about flossing and what it does to our oral health:

When caring for our teeth, toothbrushing alone is not enough, stresses Dr. Tess Oliveros-Villarico, who is the President of the Philippine Pediatric Dental Society Inc. (www.ppdsi.org).

“There are areas in the mouth that cannot be accessible even to a single bristle of the toothbrush. Hard-to-reach areas include those between contacting adjacent teeth. An important part of the oral hygiene regimen is flossing those areas to remove plaque build-up,” she says.

Plaque that is not cleared, Dr. Villarico explains, will continue to attract microorganisms, food debris and more layers of plaque which in time may harden, making it more difficult to remove and posing a greater threat to oral health. Eventually, this can lead to tooth decay, bad breath, gum problems and other worse complications.

“Teeth with plaque may harbor tooth decay-causing bacteria which has the ability to produce acid that is capable of breaking down tooth structure. Tooth decay will be initially seen as white chalky spots in the region where plaque build-up is,” she warns.

Flossing is thus essential and should be done frequently by young and old alike. Dr. Villarico advocates that kids and adults floss their teeth at least once a day, and she believes that this is best done as part of the oral hygiene regimen before bedtime.

“During sleep, salivary flow and quantity is significantly less compared to when awake and this impacts on the growth and proliferation of microorganisms and subsequent plaque accumulation in the mouth.”
