$200 lesson...again

What again? ... YES again. I mentioned that I need to go for follow up rite? This time, I was there to clean my teeth and also learn how to floss them.

Dentist : Have you been flossing your teeth?

Me: No, I don't like flossing doc, but I've changed to using electric toothbrush with flossing effect.

Dentist: Um.. personally I think that's just marketing gimmick. There's no toothbrush in the world with bristle fine enough to go between your gums. I'll show you how to floss later.

Dentist sensei don't understand, I don't want to to floss my teeth. After she explained that some of my teeth are displaying early signs of decay, I reluctantly promise to floss every night before I sleep. Once a day ain't too bad but when Dentist sensei demonstrated with my teeth, the floss ended up quite bloody. She assured me that's because my gums got build up plague, I shouldn't bleed after one two times. Sorry Dentist sensei, but that's not very reassuring.

Aunt said we've stock up a lot of floss so it may be act of God that I need to floss now but hang on, do I floss after using my electric toothbrush with flossing effect or before?
