Question: Which one first: brushing, flossing, or mouthwash?
Answers:
the best for braces is brush then floss and then mouth wash.
the reason is the brush might not hit everything behind the wire or it pushes the plaque into the gaps of your teeth
when you floss you get the left overs but sometimes the food falls off the floss and stays in between your teeth
Finally the food particles are almost out and the mouthwash gets the rest
My periodontist told me to floss first to loosen the plaque and then brush to get it all. Follow that with mouthwash and your semi-annual cleaning will go quickly with few problems. Been doing it that way for almost 20 years.
