Result: inflammations in the gum is on the way constantly. Maybe this tool vcould improve it for me, so thanks for the tip!<BR/><BR/>Though I have to say that the new electric brush I have does wonders comparing to a regular toothbrush.

I should do better and know it because I had surgery on my teeth ten years ago for bone loss and let me tell you flossing is a piece of cake compared to that! But you are right. It takes time and I am just too lazy. Now my hubby is a fanatic about it and does his every night before bed!<BR/><BR/>Wish I was so dedicated!
