Okay this is a GENUINE question: Why. Don’t. We. Floss.
I know I’m supposed to, I see the memes, I hear the dentist and dental hygienists advice. I want to, I mean to. Why don’t I??? Why!
Probably because it's a long, tedious, repetitive task. Brushing teeth only take a minute or two, maybe three if you're getting really thorough, whereas flossing thoroughly or consistently adds much more time to that. At least that's my excuse
buy floss picks. I floss daily and it takes all of 30 seconds.
