When is the best time to floss? Do you do this before brushing your teeth or after? Opinions on this issue are rather divided.
When you floss first, you avoid forgetting or being too lax to floss or burn after brushing. You loosen the plaque in advance, so that the fluoride can do its job extra well between your teeth. Or not?

There are also counter arguments, such as:by flossing only after brushing your teeth, you move the toothpaste to the spaces between your teeth and that would be effective.
Depending on who you ask, the answer may differ. The most important thing is that you floss. If you normally floss before brushing, but have forgotten it, it is better to do it after brushing than to skip it. Plaque and bacteria collect between your teeth. By flossing every day, you prevent them from building up and you keep your teeth clean, healthy and cared for.
