I ran out of oral b threader floss sometime last week and I had just bought a new pack but realized later that it was superfloss... So I tried to floss with the super floss and umm that was a no go.. Since It's for gappy teeth, it made my gaps that we're trying to close open up wider.. So I said ok, I just won't floss tonight.
So I tried again the next night because the super floss also has regular floss on the end of it. So I started flossing with it and ended up cutting my uppger gum... So I gave up on flossing again that night... Have to confess that I probably went like 2 or 3 days without flossing and I really started freaking out... Because I don't want my teeth to rot out of my head. lol I know going a few days without flossing won't hurt but I still worry about it..
Anyway, Yesterday I found the floss, that the ortho gave me on my brace day, and my floss threaders... So I was like ok, let's go back to the basics and use these things... I forgot how much I hated floss threaders... until last night..
It was so much slower to use having to keep threading the floss in the threader and then threading the threader under the wire... and not to mention the floss that the ortho gave me was not agood floss... It shredded and got caught on my pokey wire and I had floss particles stuck between my teeth and the floss was wrapped around the wire and bracket. It was a mess!!!
Luckily, I got the floss untangled and most of the shredded floss out.. I was thinking I was going to break something... but didn't, thank God..
I found an easier way to floss with the floss threader. I had just bought a thinner floss. So I took the thinner floss and tied it to the threader and it was just like having oral b floss... but the only problem with it, is I had to throw the threader away because I couldn't get the tiny knot unloose. But I can always get more.
On a very positive note though, I ordered 4 packs of threader floss and they are on their way! :D So I'm happy about that!
Bye!
