Do you have a more original source. I’ve heard about this, and would be interested to know if/how a causal link was established between flossing and heart disease
I am a bit skeptical of this though because it is all epidemiological & therefore ripe for confounding factors. I’m sure people who brush their teeth and/or floss differ from those who neglect oral hygiene in many other ways.

I’d just google scholar ‘flossing’ and ‘cardiovascular’. It has been the subject of several studies.
Here’s a solid source: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3124861/
