Will interdental brushing make the gaps between teeth wider? Do you still need to floss?

Won't. The appropriate brush head should be selected according to the size of the interdental space. Many people worry that using an interdental 

brush will cause gum bleeding and further gum recession. In fact, this is too much to worry about. Bleeding gums indicate inflammation of the gums 

themselves and cannot be attributed to interdental brushing.

If you brush your teeth at least twice a day and brush between teeth, do you still need to floss?

No need to repeat. Wherever you can brush between your teeth, you don’t actually need to floss. If the adjacent gums are intact, 

the gap is not large, and there is no space for an interdental brush, then dental floss is still the most effective cleaning tool.
