    Far more often than the poll would allow.
    1. When I wake up
    2. After my breakfast
    3. After 1st coffee
    4. After 2nd coffee
    5. After lunch
    6. After 3rd coffee
    7. After dinner
    8. One big scrub up before bed
    9. (Often throughout the day if bored)


    I only use good enamel protection toothpaste. I'd floss after every meal, and use mouth wash. I chew dental gum in between all of this :o

    Thanks :pac: Yes, I love good strong coffee to keep me alert. I've always kept a little drawer no matter what job I went to, specifically for my little obsessions. This little drawer would be better equipped than a dentists, and more vitamins than a chemist :D

    Oh, and yes. Even when bored!

    If you're serious, which I hope you're not, how come the enamel hasn't worn away from your teeth with all the over brushing?

    Is this actually advisable? Sounds like it'd do more harm than good.

    If you have false teeth can you take them out and give them a good scrubbing?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,494 ✭✭✭citizen_p

    Three times a day, it used to be more but the dentist told me too much brushing can wear away the enamel on your teeth and when that breaks down your teeth will start to rot.

    It used to be in the morning and then after every meal and again at night.

    I am deadly serious. You are right, excessive brushing does wear the enamel on your teeth down, but I'm just obsessed with it. I go frequently to the dentist too, and he says they're in damn good shape, so I'm not worried. I've an appointment for Monday too. Yaaay! :pac:


    Yes I know I have a problem*

    :p

    More power to you! If your dentist states your teeth are in good shape, then far be it from me to say otherwise.

    I do agree with the other poster though, perhaps a hobby would be best. I'd steer clear of titan18's hobbies though, as I doubt you have the ... heh hem ... equipment. ;)

    Abigayle - during your lifetime you will spend 4 times as much brushing your teeth than you will having sex.

    *puts calculator away*

    When I can find them, sometimes the Mrs does be using them and leaves them in her handbag or even the knife drawer.
