It’s too hard for me. One of my learning disabilities is fine motor skills and I can’t use regular floss string.

Try a water pik.

For kids it is a lot easier. My kids love the kids flossers - it was the only way I could get them to floss.

My kids don't have the dexterity to floss with the conventional dental floss so flossers it is.

Have you thought about not being a dick when sharing your views? Maybe you would get people to listen to you if you were nice about it.

Use one of those dental brushes. Tiny Christmas tree shaped brushes that go between teeth.

Try Glide floss.

Or chew some gum. Use the chewed gum to stick to the floss?

Get regular floss and help him get it out that way?

Toothpick

Try doubling up on the thread/flosser.

I would try swishing vigorously with mouthwash for a few minutes, like 4 or 5.

Did he try swishing water around? Honestly, I'd tell him to let his body try to work it out overnight. See where things are in the morning.

One of those stupid flossers broke between two of my DH’s molars and we can’t get it out. I tried gripping it with tweezers and pliers but it’s too waxy. He tried flossing it out to no avail. Any suggestions short of calling the dentist tomorrow?
