Where can I find brushing accessories?

#1 Post by ouchithurts »

Could someone tell me where I can buy things like floss threaders, waterpiks, interdental brushes etc? I have no clue! Thanks

It's been almost a month since I got my braces and I haven't flossed since... I just use a regular brush after every meal. Is this bad?

I have been able to get everything I need at Wal-Mart and Target. Wal-Mart seems to have the best selection and I am usually there a few times a week so that is where I tend to go. I know wal-mart has the interdental brushes, waterpiks, threading floss, and soniccare brushes.

You should really be flossing every night. I know that it's a pain, but it would be worse to get cavaties from trapped food!

As much as I hate shopping there, Wal-Mart really does seem to have the best selection
