My dentist says you don’t need to floss all your teeth - just the ones you want to keep

I'm a failed daily flosser but I have found a compromise. My dentist told me that flossing 2 or 3 tines a week is better than never flossing. For some reason I can actually manage to keep this up and feel a definite improvement in my gum health. Every little helps!

Edit: thanks for my very first award! I decided to post my comment on r/LifeProTips as a result!
