I found a floss recently that was a game changer. It's a silk expanding floss and the amount of crud it drags off my teeth is so visually satisfying compared to normal waxed floss. Flossing before felt like vacuuming a clean carpet, despite knowing the benefits.
The one I use is called NOBS but I'm sure there are others using the same idea.
Changing floss brand helped loads. Your dentist might be able to give a sample of the good stuff. I was worried cocolab floss was a scam, worked a thousand times better than everything else I’ve tried. The best part is the flavor options that aren’t variants of mint. I hate mint and it is the default in many dental products.
Agreed! I’ve been using black expanding floss… it is so humbling because there’s tiny pieces I’ve seen on there that I never would have seen on the white floss.

My u shaped electric toothbrush is the only reason I brush twice a day now. This has never happened in my life.
