  • I read that as “there isn’t good quality evidence” not as “flossing doesn’t work”.

    If you have plaque on your teeth that doesn’t get removed it turns into tartar/calculus. If it’s between your teeth, over time that can lead to retreating gum and exposed dental necks. It’s of course also something promoting tooth decay.

    Removing this plaque with a tooth brush can be difficult to impossible depending on how your teeth are laid out. Floss can be helpful to remove it.

    Are you saying this isn’t true?
