    My dentist has also said the order doesn’t matter. My guess is that the benefits of flossing at all outweigh any small benefits from doing it in a specific order. I’m also assuming most dentists are just happy if you floss and don’t want to nitpick on technique unless it’s causing issues.

      i heard some people from my dentist, floss to excessively, like sawing too aggresively, and not sliding. i dont used the waxed version now, apparently people dont like the pfas chemicals on it, so people do use expanding floss
