Flossing habits, Do you floss once a day
I was just wondering if people really floss once a day every day like they should. If you truly do cool, but for those people that do not floss every day do you tell your dentist the truth about your lack of flossing. I went to the dentist and when he asked if I am flossing daily I told him yes because I did not want to listen to him tell me how I have to floss every day an not when I feel like it. I try to floss but normally forget about it and tend to only floss once or twice a week. I just thinking I am sure I am not the only one that lies to their dentist about their flossing habits.

If I am asked by my dentist if I floss? I tell him yes, once to twice a day every day. He gives me a cross look that says “sure right”. Let me tell you, dentist knows the answer to that question. They just want to see if you are going to tell them the truth.
By the way I do floss at least four to five times a week. There are some days I just get too busy and forget to floss.

I try and remember to floss once a day but there are times when I forget too. Flossing is important but as long as you mostly do floss I think you would be okay. It is the people that never floss that have problems. So I do not beet myself up over it. If I forgot one day I just make sure I floss extra good the next.
