I happen to floss in the evening. But I know alot of people who don't bother to floss. I recently answered a post from someone who hadn't been to the dentist in years! So how many people floss?

I rarely floss. I have these little wooden dental picks that I use. They get plaque buildup off of your teeth. I use those at least once a day.

Hi there ersmommy! O don't floss regularly. Maybe I do it just about once a week. Only when I feel like there's something stubborn between my teeth and toothpick doesn't work.

I floss everyday. Its important to have clean teeth, so my dental bill is low. I'm over 45 and have only had two cavities, so think I'm a great example to answer this question. Many people could avoid high dental bills by brushing and flossing more often. My dentist says she always uses me as an example to the children that they can avoid cavities by taking care of their teeth.

I neglect to floss as often as I should. (Guilty.) Bad, Bad, Bad.

I have to confess. I am not a flosser, but I do brush my teeth everyday. My teeth are so close together that when they'd shift I couldn't get floss through. I told the denist that the best use of floss that I know of is to cut cinnamon rolls with. He did give me a trial of some that works better for me but I forget that I have it and just brush.

I try to floss in the eveings there is alot of stuff in between your teeth that your toothbrush just does not get. I like the floss that comes in those little swords and has a little pick on the end too.

What a weird yet interesting question. I don't floss but I use toothpick made of bamboo. I suppose few Eastern people use floss. Seem that people in the West go to the dentists often, yet it is not the case in China. At the very least, I haven't been to the dentists for years.

I don't really floss that often. I brush my teeth and when I see that there's something stubborn stuck between them I'll floss it out. Other than that, I don't make it part of my daily teeth care routine. I probably should, but I'm too lazy! :D
