    Tooth care

    Let's talk tooth care. Are you good about brushing your teeth, flossing, using mouthwash, etc... or are you leaving your oral hygiene in the hands of the Mt. Dew and pizza roll gods?

    Me, I brush my teeth twice a day, rinse with Plax and Listerine before bed and floss about once a month. I don't know why but I sleep so much better when I have a clean mouth.

    I brush at least twice a day, usually three times though. I floss sometimes, but I have that water pik thing (it shoots a high powered stream of water into your mouth). I don't have any cavities.

    I brush my teeth twice a day (with a cool and expensive spinning brush type thing) and I also use floss.

    I always try to take good care of my teeth.

    I don't think neglecting your teeth in that fashion will result in you needing a brace, Squinn. Regardless of whether or not you actually brush your teeth, they will come through in a certain fashion. A lot of people who take great care of their teeth need braces, purely due to the fact that their teeth come through their gums in an awkward way (IE - pointing in the wrong directions).

    I brush my teeth once a day, if that. I think I flossed once when I was in 3rd grade, but that might be my imagination. I find it hard to care so long as I can chew solid food. My former roommate the future dentist said that this country is one of the very few where people actually care about having "perfect" teeth, whatever "perfect" might mean. I want to move somewhere where people don't care.

    Perfect teeth aren't much motivation for me. It's the fact that without preventive care your teeth can hurt like hell that I take care of my teeth.

    Not flossing = inflamed gums. Yes your teeth aren't falling off now, but they prolly will later. Of course by then you'll rationalise that it's 'what happens to old people'.

    Blah blah. I brush twice a day typically, depending on sleep schedule.

    I like the cut of your jib boyo.

    I'm a lazy fokker when it comes to toothcare, I rinse my mouth out with Lysterine every morning and I brush my teeth only a few times a week. Surprisingly my teeth are good shape most of the time, people think that I have good teeth DNA or something. Is there such thing as a gene where your teeth cannot rot due to sugars or acids in colas?
