brushing your teeth
so how regularly do you brush your teeth?
I brush at least twice a day.......three or four times is not uncommon for me, but twice a day is the minimum.
How 'bout you?
Peace Out

Who knows........we have no solid evidence pointing to me being a person.Frank wrote:I somewhat agree with them in saying that you do need to go get a life. (Unless you are not a person and just an online-based computer program that periodically generates random info. )
I can share those feelings.And for those of you that don't brush your teeth and at the same time don't get cavities...I don't like you.

I do in the morning, before I go to bed, after every meal, and before I leave the house... so lots of times!
(although sometimes, like if I work in the morning, that combines morning brushing and before leaving brushing)

I usually brush my teeth twice a day, but sometimes only once. It partially depends on whether I feel like it, and whether I have to be somewhere or not. If I have to go to school or work, then I always will right before I leave. If I have a day where I'm just going to sit around at home and eat, I'm usually too lazy to bother.
I hate the taste of fluoride, so I don't eat anything for as long as possible after I brush my teeth, because otherwise it feels like I'm swallowing it, and then I feel queasy.

Ha, the gum is the rest. Or at least part of it.Eugene Kendall wrote:once a day the gum get the rest
I typically brush once a day, although I really should be brushing twice a day. Especially considering the fact I spend most of my days at home. Being homeschooled doesn't necessarily mean a student will brush more frequently.

Has anyone tried those little Crest on the go thingies? A friend pulled them out when we were done with a meal in Vegas, and I couldn't stop laughing as she scrubbed her teeth......
I usually brush before I leave and when I get ready to go to bed. My mom actually wore her tooth enamel off from brushing too much, and now I am paranoid......I usually only eat twice a day though, so if I eat more, I usually brush more. And I chew lots of trident.

Ten minutes to brush your teeth? That sounds almost as long as it takes my sister to brush her teeth. You must spend a good 20 seconds per tooth. But brushing for an extended period of time really isn't harmful, as long as you don't begin irritating the gums. According to "Bay of Quinte Dental Society," brushing should take at least a couple minutes.

How Long Should You Brush Your Teeth?
Take the time to carefully and gently clean each tooth, ideally twice each day. The average person brushes for less than 35 seconds. A good brushing takes two to three minutes. This is about the length of one song on the radio.

Ha. I never thought of it that way. I guess we should all listen to the radio while brushing our teeth. We must not stop brushing until we've heard a complete song.

Takes me between 8 and 13 mins most of the timeBandit Squirrel wrote:I do it once a day. Doing it any more takes too much time. (I'm very thorough, so sometimes it takes me over ten minutes to brush my teeth.)
