Thieves Dental Floss Arm yourself with the power of Thieves
Proper flossing is important to oral health. When you eat, food particles can become trapped between your teeth, where toothbrushes can't
reach. If these food particles are not removed (by flossing), bacteria will begin to grow, which can eventually harden into plaque and lead
to gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease.
Flossing removes the food trapped between the teeth, clearing out the bacterial film that forms there, before it has a chance
to harden into plaque. This, in turn, reduces the likelihood of gum disease and tooth decay. Thieves Dental Floss(PDF)
It's about more than just oral care
When most people think about oral hygiene, their attention tends to stop at the prevention of cavities, plaque build-up or tooth loss.
But, proper oral care may prevent many systemic health concerns, such as cardiovascular disease, stroke and bacterial pneumonia, as well as
the oral health problems we generally think of in this context. And, while proper oral care can prevent cavities, tartar, gingivitis (
an infection of the gums caused by plaque), and more serious gum diseases, such as periodontitis, its benefits extend beyond these concerns.
For example, besides leading to tooth loss, periodontitis may increase the risk of a pregnancy terminating in a pre-term and/or
low birth weight delivery. And, the bacteria from poor oral hygiene have been implicated as a major contributing factor in heart disease
and other inflammatory conditions.
Leading health experts will tell you: The health of your mouth is a good indicator of your overall health.
Recommendations from the American Dental Association
It is recommended by the American Dental Association advises that we floss once or more per day before brushing; however, even flossing once a day will play an
essential role in preventing periodontal disease and other health concerns.
The American Dental Association advocates children should have their teeth flossed as soon as two teeth touch each other.
Thieves® Dental Floss can be used daily by children and adults to clean plaque and debris from
between teeth. With the refreshing flavors of Thieves® and
peppermint essentials oils, Thieves® Dental Floss is an excellent choice for anyone seeking to maintain a healthy and bright smile.
This is how the American Dental Association recommends using dental floss.
Break off about eighteen inches of floss and wind most of it around one of your middle fingers. Wind the remaining floss around the same finger of the opposite hand. This finger will take up the floss as it becomes dirty.
Hold the floss tightly between your thumbs and forefingers.
Guide the floss between your teeth, using a gentle rubbing notion. Never snag the floss into the gums.
When the floss reaches the gum line, curve it into a "C" shape against one tooth and gently slide it into the space between the gum and the tooth.
Holding the floss tightly against the tooth, very gently rub the side of the tooth, moving the floss away from the gum to the tip, with up and down motions two or three times.
Repeat this method on adjacent and subsequent teeth.
