Is Flossing Really That Important? Absolutely.
The truth is, brushing alone won’t prevent gum disease. At The Kemah Family Dental, TX, we help our patients understand that flossing is just as critical as brushing for maintaining a healthy mouth and preventing infections.
Without flossing, you're leaving behind up to 35% of bacteria in your mouth. That leftover plaque becomes tartar, causing inflammation, gum recession, and decay. Flossing also stimulates your gums and supports healthy blood circulation in the mouth.
Our team teaches flossing methods tailored to your unique dental anatomy, including around bridges, braces, and implants. We also recommend interdental brushes or water flossers for patients who need extra ease or efficiency.
Don't wait for bleeding gums to start flossing—prevent issues before they begin. Floss daily, and your teeth (and wallet) will thank you.
