00:00 Protect your teeth with these pro tips for flossing from the Australian Dental Association.

00:08 There are all kinds of flossing tools available.

00:11 Try them out to see which works for you.

00:15 Floss before you brush so your toothpaste can better reach those gaps and corners.

00:24 For regular floss, wrap 30 to 40 centimetres around your fingers, leaving your index fingers

00:31 free to help.

00:34 Wrap more around one side so you can keep revealing new, clean tape as you go.

00:42 Slowly saw the tape towards the gums.

00:45 Don't hit the gums suddenly.

00:49 Where your gums look like triangles, floss down both sides of the triangle.

00:57 And don't worry if your gums bleed a little.

00:59 This will stop in one to two weeks if you keep flossing regularly.

01:04 Kids need to floss too, and they need your help.

01:08 This is a good way to do it.

01:12 Flossing only reaches about 60% of tooth services, flossing equals 40%.

01:19 So remember, brush twice each day and floss at least once.

01:25 Every single day.

01:28 And visit your dentist regularly to prevent problems and keep on smiling.
