Why aren't you Brushing 2x a day and flossing Sup Forums? AMA

I'm not flossing daily because flossing through braces is a son of a bitch.

I don't have braces anymore but I do have a water pik. Get one of those and put like 1/4 listerine 3/4 water. That shit is straight magic. My teeth feel great after.

I have poor dental hygiene and I'm ashamed of it

It's one thing that you can change easily. Why do you think that is?

Mostly laziness. I brush 1x a day and I try to floss but I forget very frequently. Almost never brush 2x

I thought b would be more active today. lol

Flossing is important but if you only brush once a day try and make that at night. You eat a bunch of shit during the day and that collects in your teeth and rots all night when your saliva isn't flowing and this leads to horrible teeth.

I feel you man. I used to be the same way. Now its my fucking job to tell people to take care of them selves. Anyways try and brush at night because having dentures around 50-60 sucks.

god tier flossers

the americans are still asleep. it will get good in a few hours.

Anytime someone complains about Sup Forums, imma show em this.

those are good to carry around with you but traditional floss wraps around your tooth and just does a better job. If you really want to fuck your world up use "Cocofloss" its like unicorn pussy for your teeth.

I am American. just can't sleep. ;/

Is unicorn pussy a good thing or a bad thing? I don't understand your hip young lingo

I am still got an infected wisdom tooth, it hurts like a bitch, have to take antibiotics and shit.

haha. i come here when im bored but it has turned retarded in the past few years. I love the green text stories and random shit. Not feeling the pedo, cuck, alt right thing though.

Haha naw. im just trying to say that it actually feels good. like mythical floss. there is one that apparently is better but one of my colleagues keeps it from me because you can't buy it in the US and he doesn't want to ruin his supply.

I cruise the forum at work, the porn stuff is meh, and all the nigger bait is lame af, but some of these posts make me laugh loke fuck.

That sucks man. I had my wisdom teeth taken out after i broke my jaw. Tooth pain is not fun. What are you taking btw? Amox?

I would be on the news if i looked at this at work. lol

I dunno I'm not American whatever the tooth surgeon prescribed. I'll have it taken out as well after the infection goes down. Everything is fucked up the entire inner portion of my lower jaw is red and puffy, my throat ears eyes and head hurt on the right side.
Honestly a filling once fell off of one tooth and the nerve was exposed for two days. That hurt this is somehow worse.

Ouch. I hope that the procedure goes well and you have a fast recovery. 3rd molars tend to come in weird and not being able to reach far enough back with a tooth brush can result in situations like yours.

>traditional floss wraps around your tooth and just does a better job.

it's true, but the plastic twin line flossers get more people flossing cause they make it so fucking easy.

because flossing is completely overrated and actually does more harm than good.

a good brush is all you need.

I brush twice a day and use mouthwash.

Can't stand flossing, when I was a kid, the dentist decided to show how to floss.

Thanks to my tight fitting teeth, she used enough strength to fucking cut into my gums.

>rd molars tend to come in weird and not being able to reach far enough back with a tooth brush can result in situations like yours
This is very true. All I can say is if anyone has a teeth issue, don't delay it get your ass to the dentist immediately.

Its my job to tell you what is the best way not the easiest. I agree though. People love them. However popping them in and out of your teeth isn't the best way to floss it just dislodges food and not really getting that plaque off.

This, brushing twice a day is almost too much and can lead to a really grainy texture for your teeth.

One good brush before bed, is good.

You are going to tell me that floss does more harm than good? Thats like telling an athlete that running is bad.

Flossing helps. Don't let that article that came out a few months back make you believe that shit.

Also unless you want gaps between your teeth, don't floss. Just brush properly.

Arguably, flossing would help with dental hygeine. However, unless you floss correctly your teeth can change orientation including their direction, rotation, etc.

Don't floss you retards, just learn to brush the front, sides, and back of your teeth.

You are brushing too hard then. Go get a soft bristle brush and brush your teeth with small circles for about 2 minutes. grainy texture sounds like calculus and not teeth. your teeth should be smooth and slick. Go see a dentist bro.

Oh god... Diastemas (Gaps) are not caused by flossing. You can wear way your teeth but usually we see people do that when they saw the floss along their gums.

Where the hell are you guys getting this shit information?

So you are saying that someone flossing a minute a day can actually twist their teeth and do what orthodontists take 1-2 years to do?

>calculus

crap, i hate maths

>Brushing too hard.

No I was brushing too much, brushing in circles is retarded and what you tell kids with ADHD to do when they don't like brushing their teeth.

My teeth aren't as smooth and slick as they could be because I'm not a teen or rich enough to go see a dentist every year

Cause I don't need to
My teeth will probably never go bad and rot even if I brush them like 5 times a week.
Donno why, eat a lot of meat to keep them strong, drink a lot of milk and my saliva is super man or sth.
Never had a cavity as well.

me too. :(

Not to the degree orthodontists will. But can definitely be a contributing factor for developing mouths.

Also flossing is lame, never do it.

Impossible to floss, my teeth have not nearly enough gap between them. Flossing also hurts the gums between your teeth.

You seem to also not take advice very well especially when it comes from an expert and backed up by science.

Preventative care is cheaper than restorative bro.

As for being a teen... I have seen 90+ year olds with all of their teeth and they look great.

DH here
State? Legit, how much you make a day?

As you get older your saliva will slow down and metabolism too. Don't fall into bad habbits as many of the dental diseases happen slowly over time.

Your first statement is irrelevant, at no point did I refuse advice from anyone.

I agree with you, but also irrelevant.

As you are teen when you're older you start realizing that human bodies are more like a very unique and well-oiled machine. Everyone is different, so take everything I'm saying with a grain of salt.

Where are you getting this information? I call bullshit on this. I do research on bone growth and diseases and I can tell you that this is horse shit.

Cali. Depends. I am an associate and get some production.

You understand the concept cause and effect don't you, you dipshit?

Well, then you'll also understand why chronic thumbsuckers also tend to get terrible overbites and enlarged front teeth.

Google wont save you from life experience kiddo.

Thumb sucking over time can cause an open bite (Not over bite) (Go google the difference between overbite and overjet while your at it)

A kid sucking his thumb will put constant pressure on the teeth for a many hours a day but flossing once a day for a minute is negligible kiddo.

Oh boy, your attempt to seem intellectual is fucking pathetic.

Sure consistent thumbsucking over approximately 20 years your bones are still developing could lead to a very stereotypical open bite. But like many children they suck their thumbs from a certain age to a certain age, so after they've stopped sucking their thumb their mouth continues to develop normally with their current deformities. This typically results in abnormal overbites in their adult years.

Suck my dick, thank you very much.
