Your Teeth

[SmilingKitsune]

I haven't had a cavatie since I lost my milk teeth, which is good since I hate the dentist.
With a little luck my final wisdom tooth will come up ok and I won't have to have it removed, I didn't have any problems with the others which I hear is pretty rare.

I'm English, it's not expected that I brush my teeth. That aside they remain white for soem mysterious reason.

 

[Froobyx]

I brush every day and use mouth wash (floss is weird for me so I don't use it)

I inherited weak enamel from my mother, so I'm always scared I'm going to lose them to something silly.

Braces made my teeth all straight and pretty looking, but I knocked a tooth back

And the tooth behind my top left canine is super sharp for some reason.

 

[Andalusa]

Every morning and night they get brushed and a swish of mouth wash.
I don't like flossing, it feels weird.

 

[Grimm91]

I normally brush my teeth five times a day. But I am really weird

 

[cthulhuween]

Man, I just got done flossing and rinsing, but normally I fail to do anything but brush two or three times a day. I sometimes skip the dentist for a year ofr two and subsequentley have to endure a pretty nasty cleaning. So all I can say is be sure to floss.

You guys are all yanks I'm guessing, heh, just to clear up some cobwebs I feel like I have to say this

I brush them every now and then. I rarly ever floss. Kinda lazy about that kind of stuff

 

[EeveeElectro]

Usually once a day, and use mouthwash.
I use a lot of gum too.

Just an FYI: if you brush your teeth twice a day, use floss at least once a day, and rinse with a mouthwash, you'll markedly improve your breath. Yeah, all that crap between and on your teeth makes you have bad breath.

I got kinda hosed in the teeth department, not only were my teeth all twisted around and crooked (wore braces for 5 years), but I had a super-high fever when I was 2 or 3, when my teeth were forming, and as a result, the calicum didn't spread equally throughout the tooth buds, therefore I have inherent weak points in my teeth, along with them being slightly mottled in color.

One of my desires is to just have them all capped, but perversely, I hate hate HATE the dentist, and go only as often that my wife guilts me into going.

I'll brush 'em once or twice a day, mouthwash too, but I'm not obsessive. Haven't been to the dentist in about ten years but they're in pretty good shape, apart from the one at the back that I broke on a particularly hard bit of food and has been crumbling to bits ever since. It's not visible unless you stick your head right in my mouth and it doesn't hurt, so I haven't bothered doing anything about it yet.

I had braces as a kid, though not the kind that were attached. This resulted in me losing them. Or, more honestly, throwing them out because they fucking hurt. Keeping them would've required regular doses of morphine or something to keep the pain off, I didn't really fancy going down that road.

Damn right we dont

 

[jmace86]

I brush my teeth once per day and I believe I have flossed about six times in my entire, 23-year life. My teeth are also in perfect condition (my older brother is a dentist and I am pretty sure I can take him at his word on the subject).

Take that, conventional wisdom about oral hygiene!

I brush my teeth and I use mouth wash. Flossing is a pain in the ass and I always end up hurting myself.

"You don;t know how hard it is to stop smoking. Yeah, I do. It's as hard as it is to start flossing."- Mitch Hedberg.

 

[Hippobatman]

I brush my teeth twice a day and I never use mouthwash or floss. I really should, though.
My teeth are relatively healthy, if you ignore one cavity and some brushing related stuff which makes a part of my tooth really sensitive to heat and cold (I can't really explain in English).

I should cut down on the Coke, I guess.

My teeth are perfectly aligned, because I went through the entire braces thing. Before that my teeth looked like as if they were blasted in place with high explosives. It was really bad. Furthermore I've chipped a small fragment of my front tooth, horrible, horrible magnet incident.

That's about it, I think.

i have a brilliant dentist...

i dont take care of the too well... i have never flossed... and i wait for them to feel dirty before i ever clean them... though thats something i hope to fix...
my teeth are naturally all in the right place and stuff... except one... :>


also... i found this brilliant mouthwash that cleans almost as well as brushing and flossing... and so it doesnt take long to clean them anymore

i have a brilliant dentist...

i brush and floss twice per day. but past events have really deteriorated my teeth. i have 4 root canal and i,m waiting for a 5th one, 8 other teeth have been repair for cavities and two are slowly roting (one miss the back cheek side quarter, and the other have only 2/3 of the inner side left, everything else have been destroyed on it. I'm suppose to get those two removed somewhere next year. but there is great chances that i will end up with false teeth within 20 years

I'm terrified of teeth. Two years ago, I had veneers fitted (costing more than a one-bedroomed flat), they look beautiful - but I am scared of them falling out/hurting etc. I brush them multiple times a day, floss everyday and poke and prod at them on a regular basis.

Unfortunately, I was born with a crooked jaw that has left my bite almost an inch out. This has caused my wisdom teeth to grow at odd angles. A while ago, my lower left wisdom tooth snapped in half - and got infected before I could do much about it. I went on antibiotics and the infection cleared up, but I was and am too scared to have the tooth removed. As such, it's just collapsing. I know I should have it removed, and will - but "later".

I also have an overbite that is two inches... out? Wide? Sticky-outy. This means it is impossible for me to close my lips together. Teeth, sure (although with explained wonky-bite), but lips no. When eating, I put a hand over my mouth to be as polite as physically possible.

To be honest, my mouth sounds worse in text than it is in person.

 

[Acid Armageddon]

I have two overgrowing sharp teeth in places so I look slightly like a vampire. Good for scaring children. Muahahahahahaha!
