Using traditional toothpicks is a habit of many housewives to clean their teeth after meals. However, switching to using dental floss regularly is not only a modern trend but also a sustainable way to protect health.
Deep cleaning of narrow spaces between teeth
Dental floss has a thin, chewy and soft design, easily passing through narrow tooth spaces to remove food that remains. Meanwhile, bamboo toothpicks are often large and hard, only clean the surface, and are difficult to penetrate tooth cavities, making it easy for bacteria to grow as well as cause infection or tooth decay.
Protects gums, prevents gum loss
Using bamboo toothpicks creates strong impact in the triangle between the teeth, gradually widening the gap and causing gum retention. Using dental floss will operate more gently, hug the curve of the roots without putting pressure on soft tissue. This is also a way to protect gums to always be healthy, firmly adhere to the tooth duct and effectively prevent gingivitis.
Reduce tartar, bad breath
Not cleaning your teeth will cause a lot of tartar, causing unpleasant odors. Floss will help clean all teeth, keeping breath fresh. This method both helps protect tooth enamel and maintains a stable jaw structure.
Safety, high aesthetics
Bamboo toothpicks can cause scratches of tooth enamel, bleeding or gingivitis if you use too much force. Dental floss with its softness will completely overcome the above disadvantages, ensuring safe oral hygiene without causing thin teeth as well as helping smiles always be confident and radiant.
