Throwing away what Comes out with Toothpicks from Between the Teeth
عَنْهُ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ أَمَّا مَا يَكُونُ عَلَى اللِّثَةِ فَكُلْهُ وَ ازْدَرِدْهُ وَ مَا كَانَ بَيْنَ الْأَسْنَانِ فَارْمِ بِهِ .
2. It is narrated from the narrator of the previous Hadith from ibn Mahbub from ibn Sinan who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ‘What is in gingival (front gums) swallow it and what is between the other teeth throw it away.’”
