Update: i've been pretty good about flossing - sometimes I miss a day, but if the goal is once a day then i can be happy if i get it done five times a week. I've been also good at using my rinse, as ordered.
I have another dental checkup coming next month, to follow up on my deep cleaning this spring. I am hoping my dentist will be nicely surprised at how well i am caring for my teeth.
Has everyone been working on their daily dental health?

I've been hugely distracted and logistically occupied, so my dental health has been suffering.I haven't been flossing or using my rinse. Now that i am stable (in one spot for awhile), I am excited to get back into good habits.

My dentist kept bringing up sonic toothbrushes as a good thing. I finally broke down and bought one a few years ago, it was the cheapest one I found that met the standards he mentioned. I didn't buy one of the ones he had for sale in his office.
The next time I got my teeth cleaned, the hygienist actually noticed the difference. Then when I got pregnant with my second child I had to get some deep cleanings. It was expensive and a little painful I use that sonic toothbrush a lot now, and consider it frugal compared to the dental bills without it.

I've set an alarm to remind myself to floss daily, but it's still only happening some of the time.
Does anyone floss every day? Do you do it once or twice a day, and how do you remember?

I flossed yesterday and just got in my flossing today. It is super easy to forget to floss if I don't feel accountable. And I want to keep all my teeth!
So this thread is a super big help to me.
Go floss, everyone!
