How often do you brush your teeth?

Be honest!

    SO into brushing teeth!!

    Love my Oral B Spinbrush for home use and I carry around Colgate WISP disposable toothbrushes for the road (RIP environment :( )

    I also get tooth polishing paste, like the kind from the dentists' office, off Amazon so I can do my own occasional deep cleanings.

        omg what

  • SleepymachineJul 19, 2016 at 11:09 PMΔ

    Once, and I floss. I lost my habit of doing it twice, so literally today I planned to make a reminder alarm on my cellphone. :)

    Recently stopped using my waterpick, gotta get back into that...

    • ifindkarmaJul 20, 2016 at 12:44 AMΔ

      Floss AND waterpik?

      • SleepymachineJul 20, 2016 at 1:56 AMΔ

        Yeah, I use drops of a liquid called "Salviathymol" in the waterpik water.

        As I understand, a waterpik isn't nearly as useful as flossing, because flossing generates much more energy to remove stuff between teeth. So waterpiks are weak substitutes. But I use it after flossing to apply Salviathymol and hopefully remove little things that flossing doesn't.

        One little complication few people mention is flossing & waterpiks can make things worse by pushing things into the gums. Or something. I'll look at some videos for clues on how to properly floss... For me, the #1 link is how to do it under a minute.

        One problem I had was coming from a culture where people don't feel they have time for self-care. But you get one body right now, and no user's manual, so better find out how to take care of the damn thing. :)

      • ifindkarmaJul 20, 2016 at 12:30 PMΔ

        If you do find a good how to floss video I'd like to see it.

        If you don't want to post it here feel free to post it to /kindness.

        Flossing is a kindness we do for ourselves.

  • TheLizardQueenJul 19, 2016 at 10:56 PM

    My friend and I always used to tell people flossing was our favourite sport.

  • fluffywhitethingJul 19, 2016 at 10:59 PMΔ

    Hmm.

    I feel like there could be another option in here somewhere. I also shall mourn the loss of than. RIP, than, you were a good word when you were used.

    • DanJul 19, 2016 at 11:03 PMΔ

      DAMN YOU! Don't grammar check me!

      • fluffywhitethingJul 19, 2016 at 11:06 PMΔ

        But it's than; it rhymes with your name! Also, you'll never get nice money acting like that!

      • DanJul 19, 2016 at 11:07 PMΔ

        If I could tip via the mobile app I'd tip you for being rude. Sadly iOS rules about money are limiting.

        I see you too like to giphy dangerously...

      • fluffywhitethingJul 19, 2016 at 11:19 PM

        I do indeed. Especially late at night.

      • EilisJul 20, 2016 at 9:00 PM

        Me three

  • JakeJul 19, 2016 at 11:54 PMΔ

    All of the people that voted more than twice do you have a bomb electric toothbrush? I've done that with my mediocre sonicare and it hurt my gums.

    • JalehJul 19, 2016 at 11:55 PMΔ

      YES!! Get an Oral B Spinbrush (and a Waterpik while you're at it.)

      The Spinbrush puts all other toothbrushes to shame.

      • ifindkarmaJul 20, 2016 at 12:41 AMΔ

        Do you floss too?

      • JalehJul 20, 2016 at 12:46 AMΔ

        Flossing RULES!!

        I use Oral B Glide floss and DenTek slim brush picks every day, along with tea tree toothpicks. Used to also use an Aquarius Waterpik in conjunction but my current sink situation makes that difficult.

      • ifindkarmaJul 20, 2016 at 1:18 AMΔ

        That's amazing. If oral hygiene was an Olympic event you'd win a gold medal!

      • JalehJul 20, 2016 at 1:55 AMΔ

        Ha! The tooth stuff actually has a long history. Will post about it in my personal community once my braces come off :)

      • ifindkarmaJul 20, 2016 at 12:28 PM

        I look forward to hearing about it Jaleh. :)

  • TheOtherSideOfThePillowJul 20, 2016 at 12:47 AM

    Exactly twice. Otherwise I feel ridiculously gross.

  • ElizaJul 20, 2016 at 9:35 PM

    Who has TIME in the morning? (Actually, I totally do, it's just that I'll probably eat something again in like, an hour, so why bother?)

  • AlyeskaJul 19, 2016 at 11:12 PMΔ

    No option for just twice a day?

    • DanJul 19, 2016 at 11:14 PMΔ

      Added!

      • AlyeskaJul 19, 2016 at 11:15 PM

        Why, thank you!

      • AlyeskaJul 19, 2016 at 11:17 PMΔ

        New question, is there a way to revote?

      • DanJul 19, 2016 at 11:17 PMΔ

        No. Now we think you have insufficient brushing habits.

      • AlyeskaJul 19, 2016 at 11:20 PMΔ

        Is that "we", as in the imzy community, or a royal "we" as in "we certainly hope you effectively fight plaque, duke of Alyeska"? Or... Is it weeee, as in, "weeee! Its pension rollback season!"

      • AlyeskaJul 19, 2016 at 11:20 PM

        Just kidding, you do crack me up quite a bit though!

      • AlyeskaJul 19, 2016 at 11:20 PMΔ

        Wow.. I must not know how to properly use giphy...

      • AlyeskaJul 19, 2016 at 11:39 PM

        Hmmm, I see. Then I guess i have to upgrade to every waking hour, on the hour. Would that suffice? ;)
