Let's Spend More Time Flossing!

Do you have 5 minutes to spare?

That five minutes -- brushing and flossing -- every morning or night could save you from gum disease and tooth loss when you're older!

While most of us brush our teeth on a regular basis -- at least 2x a day -- most of us are not flossing nearly enough -- in fact a third of all Americans don't floss at all.

Spending 2 minutes flossing and 3 minutes brushing (or some combination that totals 5 minutes) could help you maintain a beautiful smile and healthy teeth for a long, long time.
