It's better to floss before brushing. That way you can effectively brush away all the inter-teeth gunk. amirite?

Isn't that what everyone does, floss then brush, then mouthwash?

No, I brush, then floss, then mouthwash. I know its not technically the correct order, but I cannot bring myself to floss first. At least I am doing it all though

Technically better to brush last and not rinse so the flouride can work

This is what my dentist told me 3 weeks ago, confirmed

I haven't looked but just assumed that flouride in mouthwash was more. Interesting.

I just rinse with the sink between teeth. Otherwise I feel like im pushing the stuff into my gums are something from the last tooth.

This is what a dentist would say. I'd say it's a popular opinion.

My hygienist just told me last week that you are actually suppose to floss-mouthwash-brush. I tend to floss before and after because I like to make sure.

So, i do this weird thing where i start brushing, then floss, then finish brushing, so that way i get the toothpaste between my teeth while flossing...also while doing calf raises & squats or lunges. Because i'm standing there for 2 minutes, i might as well do something

That's how i was taught by my parents and also confirmed by my dentists. Floss, brush, and then oral rinses.

Flossing first reduces gum bleeding to about nothing.

Flossing doesn't have an impact on brushing, that's a myth. You can't impact oral health through dancing of any kind.

Who flosses after brushing?

Except then you brush and shove stove back in there.

This is literally recommended by dentists. Not really an unpopular opinion, it's a clinical fact lol

All your toothbrush is doing is pushing the gunk back in between your teeth if you floss before brushing.

by emelyveum 1 week ago

I brush the outer layer first then floss. Then rinse with mouth wash. If you do it the other way youre brush food back into your gum. Sure it might be more resilient but its better then being stuck in-between your teeth

That is how most people do it, not an unpopular opinion.
