I'll reply here because a lot of sibling comments mention not seeing benefits to flossing, there being no evidence, etc.
Not cleaning interdentally (between teeth) means you miss almost half of the tooth (crown) surface. Think of it as only cleaning the outside of a vintage radiator [1].
The current guidelines [2] recommend using interdental brushes when possible (lots of evidence for that), and flossing where space is really tight.

So, please, clean interdentally!
