Be careful not to push floss into the gums.
If you’re not flossing on a regular basis, you may experience sore or bleeding gums the first several days you floss. If bleeding continues after the first week of flossing, call your dentist.
If you have trouble handling floss, ask your dentist or hygienist about the use of a floss holder or other types of products that help you clean between your teeth in the places that your brush can't reach.
