I floss after brushing, but I don't suppose it matters too much, which way round it is.

My dentist told me to stop using the electric flosser, the pressure was making my gums bleed. In theory, you floss first, to dislodge the tartar etc., then brush.

I do to Cloverjo.... dont think it matters!

Ahh I see Boxtops... that does make sense... I'm using the tape type of floss... my gums bled at first.. its stopped now...!

I bought a water flossing gadget a while ago. Still not tried it out yet. Always in too much rush.
