Flossing - before or after brushing?

questionquick

Just wondering... is it better to brush your teeth first, then floss and then use mouthwash...

Or... floss first, then brush teeth... then use mouthwash....

Thanks:)

Waterpiks are good especially if you have extensive dental work It will not clean as well as floss in teeth which have good gums and no black spaces between the teeth. Floss is handier and more portable. You can floss before of after brushing it doesn't matter really, so long as you get in the physically and remove the plaque your doing it right.

Thats would be the standard approach alright.

I thought Mouthwash messed up the good/bad bacteria balance in your mouth?

What's the story with bleach in toothpaste??
