My dentist keeps telling me everything is bad. Don’t use floss holders, use your fingers. Don’t rely on a water pick, use your fingers. They absolutely refuse to believe that using my fingers is difficult for me and it’s not a skill issue.
I’m this 🤏 close to a radical sugar free diet because I cannot for the life of me floss to their expectations. It’s always wrong.
Floss holders are cheap and make it a lot easier to reach the teeth in the back:
Plus you use less floss, and save your fingers.

I’m with you. I’ve never been able to fit my entire both fists in my mouth. Try as I might.
At least there are some benefits to thick fingers.
How would thick fingers be helpful for flossing your teeth? We’re talking about how difficult it is to get our digits and hands into our mouths
Have you tried using your feet instead?
You realize your dentist doesn’t actually have any authority over you, right? Dentists who are friends (heh) of assassins notwithstanding.
Of course, I’m just extremely hesitant to disregard opinions I’ve paid to hear.
