You probably have seen articles in the press regarding an apparent lack of direct evidence to prove that flossing is effective!
This is what our dentists at Oakville North Dentistry have to say about this: The weakness of the evidence supporting the value of flossing in gum disease prevention is a reflection of the difficulty of conducting the necessary studies, not of the value of flossing for preserving a healthy mouth. Keep flossing and you will have a healthier mouth!
