Setup

Operating Instructions
Follow these steps for effective dental flossing:
- Break off about 18 inches (45 cm) of floss.
- Wind most of the floss around your middle fingers, leaving about one or two inches of floss to work with.
- Hold the floss tightly between your thumbs and forefingers.
- Gently guide the floss between your teeth using a rubbing motion.
- Once the floss reaches the gum line, curve it into a C-shape against one tooth.
- Gently slide the floss into the space between the gum and the tooth.
- Hold the floss firmly against the tooth and move it up and down, scraping the side of the tooth.
- Repeat this process for the other side of the tooth and for all teeth, using a new section of floss for each tooth.
- Avoid snapping or forcing the floss to prevent injury to your gums.
Maintenance
To maintain the quality of your dental floss:
- Store the floss dispenser in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Keep the dispenser cap closed when not in use to protect the floss from dust and contaminants.
- Dispose of used floss properly in a waste bin; do not flush down the toilet.
