What is the proper way to floss?

Flossing is critical to the health of both your teeth and gums, but many people neglect it. To properly floss, use an

18-inch strand of floss, and ease it between each tooth. Sweep it up and down several times, making sure to curve around the tooth at the gum line. Also, make sure to forget behind the last tooth. If you have any bridges or artificial teeth, use a floss threader to clean hard to reach areas.

The staff at Dr. Lencher's office will show you the proper way to floss your teeth. Contact Dr. Lechner's office today for an appointment.

From Our Patients

Dr. Lechner has been my dentist for as long as he's been in Delaware. He was the first dentist to recognize that my having had rheumatic fever meant that I should take an antibiotoc prior to a dentist visit. From that time forward, I have not come down with any sort of illness following a dentis appointment. Thank you for all these wonderful years of healthy teeth and general good health!
