There are a few different things that it could mean. First, it could mean that your gums are receding and exposing the roots of your teeth. This can be very painful and you would need extensive work to take care of it. A different cause would be extensive decay to the nerve in one or more teeth.

Definitely more than once a year! If you are brushing twice a day thoroughly, flossing at least once a day, using an antimicrobial rinse after every meal, you might be able to get away with once a year. In short, you have to have perfect oral hygiene. Most people however, should go a minimum of twice a year, preferably even 3-4 times a year for a professional cleaning because it doesn't take very long for a cavity to develop.
What is the importance of using dental floss?
Yes, flossing is still very important. Brushing alone does not completely clean in between the teeth, where food particles can become stuck, causing tooth decay.
