• Can everyday flossing cause spaces in my teeth?

I already have spaces between my teeth but I realized they seem to be increasing after I started flossing every day. Is there a connection between the two?

No way, unless you are flossing improperly and are being too aggressive with the floss. Proper oral hygiene is important daily to include brushing and flossing to remove plaque and bacteria . If done properly you can expect to keep your teeth for a lifetime and prevent periodontal disease.
