  • Flossing can be difficult with Braces. Dr. Bar shows how to floss easier with the Platypus Floss. You will love this as it is much easier than the traditional way of flossing with floss threader.

    I recommend it too! It’s called a orthopick btw platypus glosser is just the brand name

    It’s good but if your braces are to close to your teeth it will break and it’s not great quality, using a plastic blue thing earlier is a better choice even if it takes a bit longer

    A really easy way is to get a water flosser. They come with a piece specifically for braces and they work soooo well. It’s kind of expensive tho. About 50 bucks but u can use it the entire time u have braces and even when u get it off because it cones with an attachment for people without braces

    That seems like it would really increase the chances of popping a bracket off if they aren’t careful enough to pull it all the way out before trying to move to a different place. And kids, if they ever bother to actually floss their teeth, are going to be in a hurry to get it over with. Just my opinion.
