Before - get the gunk out, then brush it away.

After, and I use THESE, recommended by my periodontist. I love them, supper quick and easy and according to him they do a better job of flossing than plain dental floss. Those I use after.

I read somewhere that the "correct" way to do it is to brush first then floss. But personally I prefer to floss first to get rid of any bits then brush after - to me it feels cleaner that way. Sometimes I might floss again after brushing if I can still see or feel stuff between my teeth.

Before, and my husband does it before, too.

I guess I floss after because that's the way they do it at the dentist's office when I get my teeth cleaned. Never thought about it before! I also just floss at different times throughout the day because I have a problem area between two back teeth where stuff tends to get jammed up now and I can't stand it! I keep the floss picks in my purse, in my car, in DH's truck, in the end table next to my chair, pretty much all over the house. I can't be without them ever anymore.

I floss and my husband, a dentist, flosses afterward. I asked if they tell you "the right way" in school and he said no.

After. I've never even considered flossing before.
