1. Cut the dental floss about 45 cm long (about the same length as your arm).
2. One end of the dental floss is wrapped around the second knuckle of the middle finger of the first hand, about two or three times, and the dental floss can be fixed. Then, at a distance of about 25 cm, wrap the floss around the second knuckle of the middle finger of the other hand, and similarly wrap it two or three times. In this way, you can use the clean section in turn by loosening one circle and making another circle.
3. Clench the middle finger, ring finger, and little finger of both hands, make the thumb and index finger straight, like a child playing with a gun.
4. At this time, turn the palm of your hand so that the palm is outward, the two thumbs are inward and touch each other, and the second thumb and the second index finger are at a right angle to see if the floss can be tightened. If possible, the length of the floss between the middle fingers is correct. If not, it can be adjusted.
5. The thumb is more than the “like” gesture, with the index finger facing up, the thumb of one hand and the index finger of the other hand should tighten the dental floss together, and pass the fleshy part of the finger to make the dental floss about one centimeter between the two fingers. The second finger is straight, nail to nail.
6. Bring the dental floss into the gap between the teeth and slide it along the teeth into the gap where the teeth and gums meet until it encounters natural resistance. Then tighten the floss on the surface of the teeth and scrape the surface of the teeth by moving up and down until you hear a “squeak” sound.
7. After scraping one tooth surface, scrape the other tooth surface between the same teeth.
8. When flossing the tooth surface, the surface of the tooth should be tightened, and it should be slightly “C” shape. The contact area of the dental floss can cover the entire abutment surface.
9. When starting to practice dental floss, start from the middle front teeth, and then move to the back teeth in sequence until the last side of the last tooth. In other words, slowly move from the front teeth, which are the easiest to learn, to the back teeth.
