Fortunately mine hasn't, which has saved me the trouble of saying rude things to her. Smile

I usually floss several times a day, so before is my vote. My teeth seem to be spaced just perfectly to trap food particles. Even after I had a crown replaced where there was a spacing problem, it opened back up. I figure it will never get better, so I floss almost every time I eat, but I can't always brush immediately. I have more little containers of Glide lying around, and in my purse, and in the car and in my desk than you can imagine. Thank goodness Costco puts those nine packs on sale every so often.

I suppose this falls into the too much information category, but you did ask. Big Grin

No, I did not ask for details Smile

But, you didn't say "no details," either. :wiggle:

I say get the crap out of your teeth and gums with floss, then brush it out.
Seems so simple. My logic anyways.

Sapce,

Mine suggested the same. Rinse first. Floss to break up all the gook and glop that gets stuck between your teeth. Rinse. Brush. Rinse.
