Flossing..?


Question:
I was never taught about flossing my teeth ... however, i decided to floss my teeth 3 years ago (im now 21) .

so when u go to sleep at night, do u floss before you brush your teeth? or after you brush your teeth? before you rinse with mouthwash? or after you rinse with mouthwash??

-- what i am recently doing lately is Flossing my Teeth while brushing my teeth ... its really effective and more reasonable to get rid of debris that are stuck in between your teeth...

how do u guys floss? or .. what is the most effective way to floss?

Answers:
Either you can do it with the help of your fingers holdin the floss or by using the floss holders avilable commercially , to floss it with the help of fingers you need to cut the floss of adequate length say 8 inches or so... and you wrap it around middle fingers of both the hands and guiding its movement with the help of index fingers , moving it in and out and moving it from one end till the other whilecontinuing in and out movement .this way you floss both your lower and upper teeth
i brush my teeth. floss. brush my teeth again because i'm paranoid that gargling water won't really clean my mouth after flossing. then i use mouthwash.
