Thanks. Did them at the same time. And yesterday I again managed to floss and brush, but at separate times.

Flossed for the 2nd time today before bedtime the mouth feels so good.

Did not do 2nd brushing, though.

My Oral B electronic toothbrush is Bluetooth, it turns out. Now it gives me guidance and scores as I brush. I am approaching close to full coverage and I am occasionally guilty of overpressure. I will continue brushing while guided and hope to improve further.

Was hungry at night, had to eat, negating the positive effects of flossing and brushing at bedtime yesterday evening.

Today, did Waterpik and then put two Xylitol mints, lemon flavor, in my mouth. It feels great now.

Yay!

Flossed twice, but didn't brush yesterday. I'm starting another 5 day tiny habits program to see if I can tackle the brushing.
