I thought that everyone brushed their teeth like normal, at the bathroom sink. However a few weeks ago on Dr. Oz I saw that some people do actually brush their teeth in the shower. Saves time or energy I guess. I thought that was an awkward place to brush but not a big deal. But Dr Oz actually said theres soooo many more germs and bacteria from doing that like 10x or something! I wouldnt recommend it whoever does it lol   ;D

Where do you brush your teeth?
I usually brush my teeth roaming around the house. I got into the habit of using the kitchen snk and it progressed into roaming. I guess you can say I multitask while brushing. I am getting back into the habit of brushing before I go to bed. I use my *bleep* for that. Do you also use a dental pick and floss?

My habit is to brush my teeth just before my shower. I always brush them in the bathroom a the sink.

I don't think it's such a great idea to brush your teeth in the shower. The hot water, the angle of the shower head, all makes that sound more difficult than anything else.

I'm a sink person also. But I do do it in the shower sometimes. It saves time  :wave:

I try to brush my teeth in the bathroom, although sometimes I am caught wondering into my room getting clothes to dress in the washroom.  My husband does not like when I am outside of the bathroom doing my teeth.  I can't get myself to do my teeth in the shower I just think I wouldnt want spit on my feet and it would add to the extra cleaning.  I guess if we brush our teeth is the most important thing. ::) ::) ;D

Bathroom sink is where I brush.  My kids, however, often forget to brush (EWWWWW)...  :P

At the sink for sure, plus don't forget to floss.

I don't think I've ever brushed my teeth in the shower, however I don't see what is strange and/or gross about brushing in the shower. ???  My shower is quite clean as is the shower head.  I would think the sink is more bacteria laden in most people's homes as the time for using the sink is most often right after disposing of human waste.

I'm a wanderer. I start at the bathroom sink but wander thru the house doing other things that need to be done as I brush my teeth at the same time.

I brush my teeth at the bathroom sink.  I think doing it in the shower is very strange.  How can you do a good job brushing your teeth in the shower?
Title: Re: Brushing your teeth?
Post by: Clandestine1 on March 14, 2013, 05:37:54 pm
I used to brush my teeth in the shower but I keep on forgetting as of late. So normally I just brush my teeth at the bathroom sink. It's not really hard to brush your teeth in the shower... just turn around and let the water hit your back.
Title: Re: Brushing your teeth?
Post by: pkrahmer on March 14, 2013, 05:38:25 pm
I tend to stay put at the sink when brushing teeth. I need to hang on to something or lean against something and I tend to be slob . So wondering around while brushing my teeth is not an option! :wave: :peace:

Brushing teeth in the shower?? ::) That is odd. Like the norm, I brush in the sink. Well, at least it’s not as appalling to hear some people take a leak while showering too. LOL! There are all kinds of people with odd habits. ;D

My family and I prefer the sink for teeth brushing. The mirror is a big contributor to that choice. We tend to inspect our teeth during and after brushing. Not common? LOL:)  :icon_rr:

I brush mine in the sink and use Crest Pro Health which seems to have eliminated the whole pink toothbrush thing so definitely promotes gum health.

For those of you who brush in the shower, don't do this if you're on vacation in Mexico.  We were told not to do this since you can ingest enough water to get Montezuma's revenge.  Not really the way you want to spend your vacation IMO!

funny you should bring that up, i hate brushing, but when i do i brush it in the sink. recently i got a cavity and i'm having a root canal as we speak, so i regret that i only brush once a day, but nonetheless i brush my teeth in the sink, thats why it was a coincidence that you brought that up

maybe if there was a toothbrush holder near the shower my toothbrush would go with me, but for now I'm happy with the sink.

I brush in the sink, after each meal. I brush with baking soda + peroxide twice a week.

For the most part, I do this in the sink.  However, there are times when I'm in a rush and it's just easier to take care of it in the shower while I'm doing everything else.

Post by: linderlizzie on July 08, 2013, 11:37:59 am
I normally start at the bathroom sink but many times gravitate towards the television set so as not to miss a moment of intellectual stimulation.  No, not really.

Just for curiosity's sake. What is the pink toothbrush thing? Good advice on the water in Mexico, BTW.

I also started using the Crest Pro Health since I saw the advertising so many times on Fusion Cash.  :heart:

I usually start brushing my teeth by the sink, but then move on to wander around the apartment and move things around, etc. while brushing my teeth. I take occasional trips back to the sink.

I have heard of shaving in the shower but not brushing your teeth while showering.  I'm at the bathroom sink watching myself in the mirror when I brush and floss.

      Any place there is water. If no water is available, use juice or iced tea...but do not swallow the liquids!
