How much is too much? This is a question that you should ask your dentist if you are unaware of the proper flossing techniques. Not only will you be able to protect your teeth, but you can remain confident that you are not damaging your gums. Some suggestions include:
- Avoid flossing too enthusiastically or harshly.
- Try not to place too much pressure upon the gums.
- Don’t allow floss to slip below the gum line.
"Flossing should be done with some pressure, but not excessive pressure."
