Teeth are also known as "dentition". They are highly calcified tissues with a certain shape that serve the functions of chewing, helping to pronounce words, and maintaining the shape of the face. Adults have a total of thirty-two teeth, which can be categorized into incisors, cuspids and molars according to their shape. The function of incisors is to cut off food, bicuspids are used to crush food, and molars can grind food. Teeth not only chew food and help pronunciation, but also have a great influence on the beauty of the face, beautiful and neat teeth can make the face and lips and cheeks look full, and can make people look healthy and beautiful.

Some people say, "I brush my teeth every morning and evening, and they should be clean." But according to statistics, more than 80% of adults in China suffer from varying degrees of periodontal disease, why brush your teeth twice a day, there will still be oral problems? The reason is that brushing can only remove most of the tartar on the surface of the teeth, but it is not easy to brush the dead space between the teeth or the teeth that are not aligned, so we can use dental floss to clean up the dirt in the crevices of the teeth and reduce periodontal disease.

The advantages of using dental floss are as follows: (1) Dental floss can remove the dirt between the teeth and reduce tartar, which in turn reduces the formation of plaque. (2) Toothpicks are relatively sharp and have no toughness, it is easy to bruise the gums when we use them; while dental floss is smooth and pliable, easy to use, and will not lose the gums. (3) The toothpick is thicker, long-term use will lead to teeth gap becomes bigger, while the dental floss is softer and finer, the correct use of dental floss will not lose the gap. (4) Flossing removes dirt from between teeth and can eliminate bad breath. (5) Users who floss and use a toothbrush at the same time have a lower incidence of dental disease than those who use a toothbrush alone.

Warm tips: When using dental floss, it should be inserted slowly into the gap between the teeth, to avoid excessive force, resulting in gum damage, and choose the most suitable for their teeth floss.

I hope the above answer can help you.
