WELL,CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT 90% OF MOST ADULTS DON'T EVER FLOSS, FLOSSING ONCE A DAY BEFORE BEDTIME IS BEST AND MOST ATTAINABLE.

Ideally three times a day but once or twice and use of listerine will help too. If you notice excessive bleeding switch to a soft tooth brush and floss only once as you may be cause irratation.

I make sure I floss before bed and whenever I feel something betwen my teeth (e.g. after eating steak). I brush morning and night with paste and if I can after sweets or meals with just water. Carry a portable brush and mini floss with you. Brushing and/or flossing more important than paste.
