How do you floss with braces on. I just got braces not to long ago and I went my orthodontic check up where my dentist got on my about flossing. I told him I am trying to floss as he told me to. The thing is the floss barely fits behind my back teeth how am I going to get it to go around the braces. I just wine up having the floss get stuck. It is a pain. Any suggestions?
