Sure you can. You can examine the gunk that removed by flossing even after brushing. Is having food debris in your mouth and promoting infections a good thing or a bad thing?

Even if a person wants to be obtuse about the above, it only takes a couple of weeks to see objective evidence i.e. gum bleeding reduced or stopped, reduced inflammation and reduction in pocket size.

Fail. The pockets deepen when flossing does not occur but improve when regular flossing is introduced.

To be clear, some pockets are already in such an infected state that flossing can't help and surgery is required.

It is impossible for brushing to remove all of the food debris between the teeth. Try flossing after brushing and see if your gums bleed or if you have gunk on the floss.

Flossing has little to do with cavities; it is more about preventing gum disease.

Chronic gum disease leads to pockets at the base of your teeth where the gums have pulled away due to inflammation. Does your dentist take measurements?

Was Moody's one of the companies that rated the MBS (Mortgage Backed Securities) at AAA even though they were junk?

The words Liberal, Conservative, Left, Right have pretty must lost all meaning. They've pretty much fallen into "no true scottsman" territory.

The main dividing lines now are "open borders" vs "controlled immigration", free trade" vs "fair trade" - essentially Globalist vs Nationalist.

Mostly the DNC tried to hide the debates by scheduling them on Saturday nights - the lowest TV viewing night of the week. It's akin to scheduling announcements over the Thanksgiving or Christmas holidays.

Words in English can have multiple & nuanced meanings. Look up the word "unlimited" and then check out the example usages. In the examples at Dictionary.com, "unlimited" really meant "vast" or "undefined" e.g. "the unlimited skies".

Wait, what?

Ah, playing the old "I have kids so I'm special" card.

Look it's simple, if you can't control your kids, they shouldn't be out in public. Do you really think that a toddler that has to chased arround belongs in a public setting with lots of potential dangers? /p?

Then why are they are they out in public where they can get hurt? If people can't control their kids, they shouldn't be out in public.

Then how was the mom not knocked down?

The onus is on the person making a claim, not a person asking for verification.
