Does flossing make your teeth bigger?

Flossing is designed to keep teeth clean and healthy.

The real cause of tooth enlargement is gum disease. When the gums are inflamed and retracted, the parts originally covered by the gums will be exposed, giving the illusion that the teeth are getting bigger, but this is not caused by flossing.

Flossing itself is very fine and soft. In the process of using it correctly, it will not cause adverse effects on the teeth and gums, let alone force the teeth open.

Flossing

helps prevent oral problems. By cleaning the teeth, it can reduce bacteria growth and reduce the risk of dental caries and periodontal disease, which is very important for maintaining oral health. Good oral health is conducive to the stability of teeth, not causing tooth enlargement.
