I stubbornly floss every day and every yearly checkup my dentist tells me it does not help and recommends me to stop doing it.

Maybe your dentist just needs more business? Im half kidding but i once had a dentist that told me I had 4 cavities that needed to be fixed, but when I to a 2nd dentist, she spotted zero cavities

Some dentists are way too aggressive about fillings. My dentist keeps a watch on smaller cavities and if they aren't progressing terribly they hold off.

Well based on the amount of shit I dig out even if I floss after, and it’s effect on my breath, ima keep doing it.
