Quick brush when I get out of bed.
Waterpic and thorough brushing after breakfast.
Quick brush after lunch when I can.
Waterpic and thorough brush before bed.

You’d be surprised by how much more genetics plays a role in tooth health than regular hygiene.


This. I’m 32. Never had a cavity in my life or any problem. Brush in the morning, mouthwash in evening.

A couple of days. I had just had dental surgery and was directed to use an antiseptic rinse instead of brushing.

About 40 days while on an op in the bush in Nam. War is not high on oral hygiene. I had 13 cavities when I got back to the World.

Complications from surgery last December- in and out of consciousness 2 or 3 days.
So that was it - I didn’t eat

1 week on a hunting trip in college. Used Mint skoal to kill the film in my mouth. First night home I did a hardcore floss, water pick and brush and my bathroom looked like a murder scene.

Not sure if it was REFORGER 90 or Desert Storm. But it was one of the two.

My dentist said that some patients have multiple root canals before age 40 and aside from that they have overall good tooth health and brush their teeth twice a day everyday.

This is me 100%

I never go anymore than the time I am asleep. Myself and a few friends used to have a platform style duck blind we could pull the boats under and spend the night. Woke up one morning to realize we didn't bring any water. rinsed with Bud light. It wasn't pleasant but I will not go without brushing at least three times a day.

This. While camping and forgot my stuff. I'll also fall asleep sometimes with one of the kids and not brush until the morning. Same thing with my teeth. I've had one cavity in my life.
