advice

Sorry if this is in the wronge category

But anyways when ever I floss my teeth hurt really bad afterwards.. and they bleed almost like non-stop and I am really protective of my teeth... and the dentist tell's me to floss.. but I tend not to my teeth kill me after I do? is this normal? does everyones bleed? please help!

if you floss your teeth regularly.. like once or twice a day (which hardly anyone does) then your gums should be strong enough to not bleed. But yes, it is normal for your gums to bleed after flossing if you don't do it enough. Just do it more frequently and maybe to start off with, apply less pressure.
hope I helped :]
