Agreed. I think there does have to be more science done, and at the end of the day I do think flossing helps. However it is a little weird to me that this study just seems to throw out the meta analysis of the other 12 studies and not have a discussion about where those studies went wrong. I also think any study done by a company without blinding etc is going to be prone to a lot of bias.
