I don't know if my insights on the matter would be correct or not. I think it would be something sort of like shaving almost. Similar. Anyways... I think it's best that if you like kissing with your ATF, and you like having nice breath when you do so. It's best you floss the night before, and now the day of. Flossing on the day of the date may not be a good Idea. My reasoning on the matter, it's that when you floss. You may curt your gums and if you DATY or DATO, I may lead to being more vulnerable to catch something.  
Wachu all think?

but you are probably correct!

I normally floss a few hours before a date.  Then use mouthwash or just brush my teeth, or both.  If I cut my gums, the bleeding stops within minutes anyway, so I am not really concerned about that if the date is hours later.   But I guess each person is different.  All things considered, I'd rather not have my mouth full of bacteria and/or bad breath when I go on a date.  I just think that's nasty.  4 out of 5 dentists agree.  (Which also means 1 out of 5 dentists happen to be quite insane)

this is why oral giving or receiving is usually pretty safe...

if you see a provider (or 2 or 3) every day, when the hell are you supposed to shave or floss?

When he runs out, he finds a Tica with a bush!

From what I have read you should not floss or brush before an appointment for the reasons that you mentioned.

My typical routine is to shave my cock and balls the day prior; then the morning of, do a thorough oral cleanse with lots of flossing, brushing and mouthwash. I'll also usually pop some breathmints throughout the day.

and for the life of me, I can't remember a tica I've met with a  full bush.  

I do brush (and brush my tongue) before every date because I do love kissing and have an oral fixation ...BTW brushing your tongue prevents bad breath and is important.

Hey ... I haven't shaved since No Shave November (which I do every year for Men's Health) and I've got that Duck Dynasty look going ... but I've got all my teeth.

is to floss regularly, use a water pic regularly, nd of course brush regularly.  If you are concerned about small nicks in your gums use the water pick instead of floss the day or two before and of course brush.  
Of course i also brush before I leave for a date or bring a small brush and tube of tooth paste with me. I also use a small bottle of mouth wash I bring with me.
In general tho, regular floss, pick, brush should keep gums clear.  
You can have bad breath from your GI tract as well and if you have an SO you can scheme with hm/her after various meals and beware foods that bring on bad breath.

I can't find the link I'm looking for but I think it was on the Science Based Medicine website. It was written by a dentist and it was a summary of all the available evidence about flossing. He had to admit there was zero evidence that it did any good whatsoever. Surprised him and me too.  

If you're GA Gambler ...

You go down to the Walgreen's pharmacy over on Hoe avenue, just across from fine Bitches Lane.

Just curious. I've heard experts say this before, but I'm not sure if it's just urban legend or not.

When you need to get food stuck in between your teeth but don't want to take a chance on causing bleeding:  Use soft picks made by Gum.   They are superior to floss for this purpose as I floss and use them and often find they get particles of food that the floss misse

The reason that we have pubic hairs is so that we can eat and floss at the same time.

Encouraging people to skip good hygiene habits before a date? Gross!
