Information on mortality was obtained from the US mortality registry, updated to 2019. Participants who answered the flossing question were divided into 4 groups according to their frequency of flossing: not flossing (0 d/wk); occasional flossing (1-3 d/wk); frequent flossing (4-6 d/wk); and daily flossing (7 d/wk).
