I fucking hate brushing my teeth. I cannot understand how so many people seem to just willingly do it like multiple times a day. How do they deal with the feeling of open revolt that washes over every cell in your body when thinking of teeth brushing?
You are a disgusting person who no one wants to be around. We deal with it by avoiding people like you
Complete opposite here. I love it. Even flossing. Such a great feeling when your teeth are white and squeaky clean.
a great feeling when your teeth are … clean.
Yeah I’ve had people describe such a feeling but I’ve never experienced it. Closest I’ve experienced is a pleasant feeling of knowing it’s the maximum time before I have to endure that again.
white
I was not raised in the US so that artificial wall of unnaturally blinding white teeth has no value to me. TBH it seems like foot binding, neck-extension or cranial deformation - an extreme status marker that’s fascinating from an anthropological perspective.
artificial wall of unnaturally blinding white teeth
My teeth are white because I take care of them by brushing and flossing every day, going to the dentist regularly, and I don’t smoke. In other words, just by normal oral hygiene. How being responsible and taking care of your body is comparable to neck extension or cranial deformation doesn’t make sense.
Try different toothpastes. The very popular ones (Crest, Colgate) I find treacly sweet and disgusting, and I fucking hate mint anything. Arm and Hammer is my go to for that bland goodness. YMMV.
For me it’s a texture problem. I didn’t notice until I was prescribed some high fluoride stuff that’s a mildly minty blue gel which is infinitely preferable to most toothpastes I’ve tried (for those curious, it’s a Colgate 5000ppm fluoride toothpaste, prescribed by my dentist because of temperature sensitivity)
