after quitting smoking I've gotten pretty serious with my dental health. I brush plenty but rarely ever floss although I've heard it's pretty important. Whats the best way to keep a healthy + :hai:
I had braces when I was 16 so I'm still supposed to wear retainers while sleeping - biggest pain in the ass and i usually don't bother with either which is retarded because those 8hours of sleep is when the real damage happens.
I believe dental hygiene is overrated. Yeah you need to brush your teeth but doing it every day isn't completely necessary. I havent brushed mine in a week but Im about to in a minute. Also Ive never had a cavity.
Same here. I brush my teeth only when I remember too.
Never had a cavity and my teeth aren't yellow either. Flossing? For what? It's not as if I eat chunks of meat everyday.
You ever notice how if you dont brush for a few days you stop noticing it but then if you brush the next day your mouth tastes like shit? It's a conspiracy from the toothpaste people I tell you.
I just try and keep on top of it because I hate operations at the dentist and it's just much easier to take care of it myself.
haha, no shit I'm the same. I'm driven to look after my teeth out of fear of the dentist. I've had some pretty average experiences with the dentist before, not to mention the fact that local anaesthesia doesn't reliably work for me..
I still like to keep my teeth clean and I guess I'm more anal about it because of my fears. I brush every night before bed, use mouthwash about every second night, and I've recently started flossing as often as possible, trying to get it done every night.
