You’re right; scientists have mixed views on the importance of flossing. Here is another perspective: numerous dental studies have linked gum disease to illnesses such as kidney disease, diabetes, and heart disease. Floss removes food trapped between the teeth as well as the film of bacteria that forms plaque. This reduces the incidence of inflamed gums (gingivitis), cavities, and tooth loss.
From our many years of experience in the dental field, we can confidently state that we have seen the benefits of proper oral hygiene, including flossing.
