• Glide, Don't Snap: Hold the floss tightly between your thumbs and index fingers. Gently guide the floss between your teeth with a gentle back-and-forth motion until it reaches the gumline. Avoid snapping the floss down between the teeth, as it may harm your gums.

• Curve the floss around each tooth like the letter “C”, keeping in contact with the side of the tooth as if the floss is “hugging” the tooth.
