Cavities elimination


When you have a decayed tooth this could mean that you will have a cavity. This is the hole on the tooth's surface or the enamel.

Ensure that you floss in between the teeth once a day to get rid of the hiding food remains and reduce plaque build-up.

Gum disease prevention


When you have gingivitis it means that the gum disease is in its earliest stage. This will show by having inflammation on the gums and you might bleed after eating hard foods, flossing, or even brushing. Ensure that gingivitis is treated before it becomes a more severe gum disease. When you have periodontal gum disease the gums will weaken and you will lose bone support. Ensure that you floss regularly and this will reduce the formation of plaque that attacks the gums and teeth.
