5 Reasons to Floss Daily
At North Shore Dental and Oral Health, we’re passionate about helping you keep your smile healthy for life.
Here are five important reasons why we encourage our Sunshine Coast patients to floss every day:
Reach Where Your Toothbrush Can’t
Flossing removes plaque and food particles from between your teeth and under your gumline—areas your toothbrush simply can’t reach.
Protect Against Gum Disease
Daily flossing helps prevent gingivitis and more serious gum issues by keeping harmful bacteria under control. Healthy gums = a healthy smile!
Keep Your Breath Fresh
Flossing reduces bad breath by clearing out trapped food and plaque. It’s one of the simplest ways to stay fresh throughout the day.
Support Your Overall Health
Good oral hygiene has been linked to better heart health and lower risk of chronic illness. Flossing is a small habit that supports your whole body.
Save on Dental Costs in the Long Run
Preventative care like flossing helps avoid more complex (and costly) dental treatments. A few minutes a day can save you time, money, and discomfort.
