S/O teeth

How do you take care of your teeth?  I brush my teeth after I eat breakfast and then swish with listerine.  Before I go to bed I brush my teeth, floss and swish again.  My daughter has braces so she has to brush her teeth after every meal.  DH (not 100% sure of this) brushes his teeth at night and swishes but I don't think he is consistent with brushing his teeth in the morning before he leaves for work - so gross.  DHs mom swishes with listerine in the morning (no brushing) and brushes her teeth before bed.  I thought that was kind of gross as well.

What kind of routine do you have to take care of your teeth?

 

 

Re: S/O teeth

  • I have to brush my teeth when I wake up.  I feel gross if I don't.  I floss and brush my teeth before bed.  I do not brush in between meals though =/ 

    DH brushes in the morning.  He usually doesn't brush at night.  I try to nag him about it sometimes.

  • I brush in the morning and at night, and I usually Listerine at night, too.  I floss, but not as often as I should.

  • I am tooth care fanatic.  At this point in my life (I am 27) I do not have a single cavity!  In the morning I do 1 minute with listerine, then I brush (the mouthwash softens all the plaque so its easier to brush it away) then I do a quick floss.  I brush my teeth at least 1 time per day at work (same routine with listerine and then brushing) but I do not floss in the office.  At night when I get home from work I always shower so I brush my teeth and listerine again at that point and then at night before bed its 1 min listerine, brush, deep floss, and then 1 more minute with listerine.

    H brushes his teeth in the morning, and then if he showers at some other point during the day he will brush again.  But he is not super consistent; it kind of grosses me out.

  • What is up with all these men not brushing their teeth twice a day.  Then they wonder why we don't want to kiss them Wink

     

     

  • I just brush in the morning. <----bad girl.  But, I have never had a cavity, so I guess I'm doing something right! I still go see the dentist twice a year.

    This is me and dh. Sometimes I brush more in the day because I wear clear retainers and my teeth sometimes feels gross after awhile but I'm constantly rinsing the retainers out.
