dental hygienist appt on Tuesday
 
Hi,

I observed that the dental hygienist flossed my teeth very quickly.

Maybe I make too big a deal out of flossing by putting it off and then spending way too much time on it.

Tonight I did it quickly. It counted.

I have a technique someone might find helpful:
Instead of flossing in the mirror leaning over the bathroom sink, I floss at my computer desk using a make up mirror with a paper towel in front of me. I started doing that when I had braces. This feels more logical -- to floss while sitting
Anyway, I guess I felt like sharing. http://bestsmileys.com/cool/1.gif

Take care. :grouphug:

Dear Mari

i floss while sitting too. that is, when i floss. i am very bad at it... i don't do it often. :o

thanks for sharing. i feel reinforced about the way i am do things when i do, knowing someone else has found a similar way more useful/logical than the traditional way.

by the way i also notice the hygenists floss real quickly. i seem to take about 8 times as long. does make one question whether one is making the process much more laborious than it needs to be - or even ought to be.

(((hugs)))

One time I saw a woman flossing while sitting on a chair in the ladies rest room...
Good for you guys who floss. I am terrible at it have to use special floss as my teeth are too tight and I break all of the rest of them.
