Not sure if this is 100% scientifically backed but I read a bit by a dental hygienist on a forum that you shouldn’t rinse when brushing with proper toothpaste because it can help remineralize the teeth if when its not rinsed away after
Its annoying but its a good way to cut down on mindless snacking at the very least for me so its something I do sometimes. Hope its not voodoo
Electric toothbrush. The hygenist often says she can tell I tell I take care of my teeth, but really, I usually only brush and floss once a day.
Is there a concern about using it too soon after eating and it wearing away enamel or the teeth mechanically? Particularly acidic stuff which i tend to limit but that notion’s been a bit of a procedural lodestar for me when it comes to, like, which kind of + toothbrush I use
I used an e-brush for all my life and only got cavities from lack of brushing and being negligent.
But you shouldn’t brush right after eating.
Eat something, wait 30min, then brush.
That’s how I do it for breakfast.
I thought I heard something about that but I don’t really know. The main thing with electric brushes is that you should brush gently and slowly. Let the brush do most of the work.
