Flossing help pl;ease?


Question:
How can you reduce or numb the pain before flossing?

Answers:
you should use a numing thing called orejel. It is used to numb your mouth and then when u do somthing like floss ur teeth it will hurt at all. You could also use Orejell on things like cankersores and anything in ur mouth. Warning: It tastes horrible but works incredibly. You can get this at your nearest drug store. Also if you could mix together hot/warm water and salt and rinse in your mouth. This will also taste gross but once its over you wont taste it anymore. Make sure you spit it out when u are done rinsing but if u swallow it its no big deal!!
Hope this info helped you a lot! =)
rinse your mouth with warm salt water to get the redness down before even attempting to floss =good luck
Proper flossing should not cause you any pain. If however you have pain on flossing, it means that you either are doing aggressive and inappropriate flossing or you have gingivitis. In either case you should see your dentist or better yet your dental hygienist to get your gums checked and to learn how to properly floss. In the meanwhile use a warm salt water gargles before flossing.
