Most of us worry before we sit in the dental chairand we know the questions that arecoming…”Have you been flossing and brushingregularly?” So what do we do, we frantically brush,
floss, and use a mouth rinse right before ourappointment. And when we finally sit down in thechair and we get asked that dreaded question wealways answer “yes, I brush and floss all the time”.You hope they believe you but deep down you knowthey know you are not being entirely truthful. Howcan they tell? What are the Signs?

like diet, that cause tooth decay but not brushingand flossing will definitely lead increasedincidence of tooth decay over time, especially toothdecay between teeth. If you have any tooth cavitiesor the beginning stages of cavities, it indicates thatflossing is a weak point in your home dentalhygiene regimen.
-Inflammation. This might be one of the mostobvious tell tale signs that you are not brushingand flossing regularly.
