Flossing is a very important daily step in maintaining good oral hygiene.
Dental floss is a thin string that can be waxed, unwaxed, plain or flavored.
The technique can be awkward to do at first, but with practice, flossing will become easier and together with brushing, should be a part of ones daily routine.
The proper technique used in flossing is to wrap the floss between the thumb and forefinger of both hands and beginning with the molars, wrap the floss around each tooth, working it up and down several times on each side of the tooth.
