Is it normal for your teeth to feel sensitive from flossing?

I feel sure that's what it's from because they only feel sensitive along the gumline, and stop feeling that way when I haven't flossed for a few days. Does anyone else experience this? It's annoying, as I'm trying to do a good thing by keeping my teeth clean!

  • It will get better you just have to keep doing it even if it hurts or just do it every other night. Make sure you are being gentle and use a sensitive toothbrush.

  • It's probably mild gingivitis. If you don't floss and brush every day, you'll get that feeling.

  • well i dont know if you have braces or not, but i kniw braces have made my teeth much more sensitive from the pressure they under and it hurts SO badly when flossing as my teeth begin to come together.
