What Comes First, Floss Or Brushing Teeth?

Dental professionals differ in their opinions about flossing. Their differing opinions rest on whether flossing should come before or after brushing teeth.

  • Flossing before brushing is recommended since it will ensure that people don’t forget this tedious task.
  • Another school of thought recommends flossing AFTER brushing to make sure that fluoride gets into the spaces between the teeth.
