Confession – You Kiss Your Mother With That Mouth?
I’m not going to fess up as much as I could – I do have an imaginary reputation to protect and all… so this confession comes with a clearly defined scope of what I’ll admit to. Read on…
I have braces. Have you ever tried to floss with braces? No? Then stay out of it. Look at you all high and mighty with your naturally straight teeth, and proper grammar. You amuse me.
Well, have you ever tried to floss with braces AND have an exqusitely exceptionally small mouth? Why don’t you try it. See how far the corners of your mouth will pull. Now pull twice as far. No. Harder. HARDER… I’m waiting…. Now wash your hands. Do you know how dirty your mouth is?
I absolutely cannot floss without cussin’. Tried it. Can’t do it. It is one of the single most infuriating activities I have ever had to voluntarily put my mind and body through… and I run half-marathons! Oh, I guess I’ve cursed then too. Mile 11 comes to mind…
So, there you have it, my Internet. You ask, “Do you kiss your mother with that mouth?” Absolutely. I’m a flosser!

Been there, Done that… Small mouth, small teeth, flossing needle and all. It S. U. C. K. S. !!!!!!
Have you cut your finger flossing yet? That brought out a nice combination of not family approved vocabulary. Oh, and the time I got floss stuck ON my braces.
Those were some fun times. I miss them SO much that I almost jumped out of the dental chair when my dentist announces the need of braces. AGAIN. I’m holding out for the day that Invisalign is “affordable.”
I am one of the lucky one you speak of…naturally straight teeth that have never seen braces..big mouth..even all my wisdom teeth grew in perfectly straight. My dentist is amazed everytime I am in his chair! I’m sorry you struggle but at least you do it!! Did all that just make your day?
Yes! I remember how hard it was! Can you use one of the pre-threaded flossers with a handle or do the braces precluse that?
