Chitchat Flossing vs using slim plastic toothpick

[chootchiew]

Visited dentist and he keep asking me to floss. Told him i use slim plastic toothpick that is much easier to perform the task but he didn't want to answer and insists must floss or else will regret.
I do not think there is any difference with it except slim plastic toothpick is cheaper and more convenient. Some good quality bamboo toothpick also do the task as good.
Is it flossing more high class ? Or I suspect maybe they know people will anyhow Pui after using toothpick ?
BTW what u all do after using toothpick to dig ?
1. Swallow back.
2. Pui anywhere
3. Depend on location. If public place just anyhow Pui , if at home Pui into dirty areas.

yeah lah. Heck care what the dentist says man. Just do what you want to do. I mean you are the one paying him, what does the stupid dentist know right? Customer is always right.

Same goes for doctors. If you hear something your doctor tells you that you don't like and/or don't agree with, he/she must be a stupid doctor!

Only those doctors and dentists that tell you everything you want to hear are the bestest!

there are certain crevices in the gum and inbetween teeth that the slimmest (waist) of a toothbrush cannot reach and thoroughly clean. there's a dental product out there that helps with gum cleaning - it's not available in sg. the removable inserts allow you to scrape guck in between gum and teeth. for deep cleaning, which i recommend at least once every year, you need to see a dentist. check your gum pockets. if they're pouchy, it means you have loads of dental shit stuck in there.

In order for your answer to be genuine, you need to tell me you floss or use good toothpick?

The dentist said using floss to move up & down, side by side to remove all the dirt around gum and teeth which the good plastic toothpick will do the same job . I do not mean simply use toothpick to dig out and that's it .
As for deep cleansing , yes regular visits 6mths per year is recommended to prevent cavity building.

floss will not remove 100% but it's better than a toothpick if you know how to floss effectively. it's to help you clean visible section of gum and teeth on a daily basis in order to avoid more deep cleaning and a host of other issues like decay, plaque and gum disease. both floss and toothpick cannot remove shit and stains deep inside gum. for that dentist will numb one side of mouth and go very deep. tissue and teeth may be impacted and blood will flow. it will require at least 3 hours to recover from numbness so you can eat on one side. like that also don't know. bodoh lah.

the selling point for floss over toothpick is definitely along this line. But given 2 usage methods of
1. Floss nightly
2. Using toothpick to dig and
"Toothpick floss" immediately after every meals

I would think the 2nd method should give better end results.

I should be giving lecture to commoners and not trainees dentist . Let me explain why the 2nd method is more effective.
After every meal we "tooth pick floss" it with rinse of water and keep our gums and teeth clean most of the time, reducing the chance for any bacteria to attack the gum. Whereas a nightly floss sounds convincing but in reality the bacteria already had attack the gum in between the day.

still cannot forget drs. pinoypuntang. she cleans my teeth for 69 minutes and i can see her eyes are fixated on my plaque, refusing to look away until every stain is removed. oh, the grinding, digging, and polishing. very kinky indeed. :p

Just curious who here will go to a dentist who says Do not floss just use plastic toothpick after every meal.

It is one thing some guy says that. It is another when real dentist says the same thing.

Words coming out from a dentist mouth is mostly convincing. They have to use more hygienic terms.
So cannot just say "u can use toothpick after every meal" .instead use "u can toothpick floss it" after every meal.

Toothpick floss it! That one the best. Can interpret as use floss also can use toothpick also can.
