  1. well has it hurt b4? flossin never hurt my teeth. did u like just go to the orthodontist? it might be because of the tightnes.


  2. Just keep flossing and it will get easier with time. Your gums are still sensitive from the tightness that is now applied /or re applied to your teeth. Using a good mouth wash can help with your gums along with continuing to floss.

    It will be  a couple days.

  3. You could be using too much pressure or your gums might not be use to it.

    If your gums are healthy you shouldn't feel any pain.

    I would suggest asking your dentist or hygienist.

    For braces try the Platypus Ortho Flosser.

    It's simple and easy to use.

  4. A BETTER WAY IS TO USE A WATERPIK THAN FLOSSING
