Who flosses their teeth?

Post Reply New Topic

I have never, ever flossed my teeth; even though my dentist says I MUST!

I don't remember if the dentist ever told me to floss. I quit going at 7 and went back to get some teeth pulled in my late 20s.

They did want me to get a bunch of fillings and get my teeth cleaned. I did neither. I can't bring myself to go to the dentist unless I'm in a lot of pain.

If I went first I'd have to call to make the appointment. I have trouble making phone calls like that. Then every time I go I have to pay cab fare there and back. Since I haven't been there in so long and might have an infection they might not even do anything the first time I go and just do x-rays and give me a prescription for antibiotics. Then I'd have to go at least twice. Then after all this they'll send me bills that I can't pay.

Twice daily. It keeps cleanings short, and painless, and I would have it no other way.
