Got floss? If not…get it, use it and love it! And here’s how; even the most flakey flossers can become compliant! And believe me, I was one of them. I acted like it was more bothersome than getting a tooth pulled. Um…pardon the paralleled pun. But I really was either too lazy to do it, or thought I didn’t need to, or just plain didn’t like to. I imagine it was a little of each.

I finally surrendered to this very important task when I found a product that was easy to use. I think that’s all it ever really was, because once it was an easy task I started doing it faithfully. Now I can’t imagine ever flaking on it again. My teeth and mouth feel cleaner, healthier and brighter. Additionally my breath is fresher and I don’t freak out that I need to stop at the store and get mints or gum when I’m on my way to meet up with friends. Not to mention I don’t have to dread the dentist quite as much. And I can even answer truthfully that I do indeed floss…even though I’m sure they always knew I was stretching the truth when I would answer that I did. I’m sure one look at my gums confirmed it.

Anyway, I tried a few products from Drugstore.com after getting a ‘not so great’ bill of health from my dental hygienist and I was suddenly transformed in terms of becoming a faithful flosser. But even she gave me a typical floss that I knew I would never use so I tried searching for a thin floss that would actually go through my tight teeth and that’s when I found the following, fell off the non-flossaholic wagon and became a faithful flossing follower:
