Realistically, once is enough if you do it properly, and most important time is at night :thumbs:

In the morning though if I see a chocolate bar or something I'll want it, and I know if I brush my teeth it will create a horrid taste.

Usually four times a day. First thing I do when I wake up, before college/work, straight after getting back from college/work and before bed. I'm kinda obsessed with doing it that way, dunno why.

Yeah! I can really only drink in the morning.
I once saw these truck drivers eating a portion of chips at 8am in the morning and I almost hurled.

3 times usually; morning, after my tea and in the night. Though if something is repeating on me then I do them again. I'm trying to get out of the habit of doing it so much, because it's not good for your teeth!

Ashleee:)
09-06-2008, 07:54 PM
just as long as your not brushing too hard i think its ok x

Same. I do have toast at the weekends, but I wake up later so I guess it's easier to eat, lol.

what do you mean brushing too hard?

Ashleee:)
09-06-2008, 07:56 PM
Let the toothbrush do its own work, dont put pressure on the brush. It will wear away your enamel if your brushing too hard. A lot of people think the harder you brush, the cleaner your teeth, this is so wrong!!

AlexBigBrother
09-06-2008, 07:57 PM
whats enamel?

Spike
09-06-2008, 07:59 PM
Three times a day.

Lauren

3-5 times a day.

Morning, after lunch, evening, before bed.

Sometimes in the middle too if I feel icky.
I use too much mouthwash too, it's an addiction.

Ashleee:)
10-06-2008, 01:58 AM
I carry around in my bag a minature toothpaste, mouthwash and floss.

Im obsessed.

Corsodyl daily is a life saver!

Ashlee's right. I got told off for brushing to hard by my dentist :pat:

I normally do them twice a day, morning and night. Altho if i have work on the night (3 times a week) then i will brush them before my shift. So 4 days twice, 3 days 3 times.

Princess
10-06-2008, 06:34 AM
Once at night. But my dentist so I have really healthy teeth so I'm not worried!

Twise, once in the morning and once at night. Brushing IMMEDIATELY after meals is bad isnt it, it said on Ten Years Younger or one of those trashy shows.

stacey
10-06-2008, 06:10 PM
Twice a day, morning and night before i go to bed

Ashleee:)
10-06-2008, 06:18 PM
You shouldnt really brish straight after a meal, and dont brush your teeth after drinkin fruit juice either.
And dont use mouthwash straight after brushing your teeth :spin2:
