To protect the health of your teeth and gums, you brush your teeth well each day and visit your family dentist in Temple. You may think that you are doing a good job so you do not need to floss unless something gets stuck in your teeth. However, even with the best brushing habits, your toothbrush cannot reach in between the teeth or around the gum line. As a result, if you are not flossing, you are letting plaque and tartar build, increasing your risk for gum disease. At Fossum Dental Group, we know that you do not like to floss, but we encourage you to make it part of your oral hygiene routine to protect your smile.
