We used to have a saying in the dental profession, "only floss the teeth you want to keep". Now with all the proven connections between heart disease, strokes, diabetes, low birth babies, we say, "only floss for overall health".
I have informed my patients for years that the mouth is connected to the rest of the body! Imagine that! Well, now we have scientific proof.
If you don't floss your teeth, you do not hurt your hygienist's feelings. You hurt your own!
