Quip toothbrush

[Reilly]

I have not been feeling well the next day after drinking beer for a number of months now. I have trouble getting to sleep afterwards ...

Sounds like you need to do your drinking earlier in the day (or quit trying to take naps in the middle of the day).

I think your second thought would then not be possible if I followed your first, using that bit of reasoning. Thanks for your input, however.

Both naps and afternoon beers are much easier when retired.

I assume.

I may post more in the future, if requested, to back up any credibility issues about the dental advice I am offering, as it is the ONLY thing that I really know a lot about. (Except my prejudice about Texas BBQ over basically tasteless pulled pork.)

Thanks! Apparently I have been overbrushing. My dentist can tell I use my left hand. Amazing we can be doing something so important - wrong our whole lives. More posts like this would be great. Videos on brushing and flossing are good too. I just never thought about techniques. You brush, you floss, you daydream while doing it...wrong!

What about flavored dental floss? Is my new craze for cinnamon flavored dental floss just another wacky cool kid trend? I am nothing if not a fashion forward consumer.

Yes, well, sure. Links only please. Sounds rather off-putting for a non-dental gathering of the minds such as we have here on DeeBer...

good time to opine that CVS store brand floss sucks, as does just about every other store product from those dolts.

Mrs. dd and I have been very satisfied with the Harris Teeter brand waxed floss at about $2 for a 100 yard package. Difficult to shred, non-flavored (she hates mint) and readily available. The Food Lion brand is horrible.

Any truth to this?

Not that I need it right now, but something to keep in mind for the future.

that sort of sums up the difference between the Heater Tweeter and the Food Lyin' right there. Tough indeed to find the 100 yard non flavored...

Clicked on this link during my lunch break. My manager walked up behind me and said, "Checking for a friend?" He laughed an walked away without giving me a chance to explain.

I've been using modified Bass technique with an old school brush in the morning, and using an Oral B electric at night. Works for me.

I floss very thoroughly, but only once a day. I could prolly do twice, if it really helps.

I've stopped using plastic toothbrushes because of plastic pollution. I've found a bamboo toothbrush as an alternative. Just think about it: one person can throw away from one to a dozen brushes per year. Only in the USA we throw away over one !billion! brushes each year! I think it's a real disaster and I'd better stop using such stuff just like I stopped using plastic bags, bottles, even plastic straws...
