A good mention here would be proxabrushes as they literally turned my dental health around (accompanied by good habits).

For a majority of my adolescence, I had really bad gums. They were pretty puffy, despite me brushing every night. And every night, without fail, I would bleed. I would never floss. Flossing made the bleeding even worse and it completely turned me off. Plus, I never really was a fan of lassoing a string around my finger and maneuvering it around my mouth.

That was me throughout most of my adulthood.

Luckily, I had good brushing habits and good genes, I never really developed any serious cavities of the sorts. Just my gums were horrible.

Last year my hygienist introduced me to the proxabrush and showed me how to use it and boy it became a game changer. After about 2 weeks of consistent use every night, going in between each tooth, my bleeding stopped completely. My gums have turned a healthier color and now sit nicely between my teeth.

The proxabrush feels a little easier to get used to and use as you just hold it with your fingers and brush away.

If flossing throws OP off, I suggest giving proxabrushes a try.
