There are huge benefits to flossing daily. We all know this, yet it takes a bit of a nudge to get us to do it regularly. Flossing is just one more task to do when you’re tired, and if you’re not a regular flosser, your gums will bleed the first few times you do it (it’ll stop with regular flossing).

If that’s what’s holding you back, you should look at one of my favorite water flossers. It’s gentler on the gums (no bleeding), and it works better than a bit of dental floss ever could.
