  • Grew up poor, no insurance so couldn’t go to the dentist.

    Saw on Reddit to get an electric toothbrush so I got one when I was younger. Brush twice a day with it. Never got cavities with 5 years of no dentist.

    Now I also floss once a day, tongue scrape once a day, mouth wash once a day.

    If you do any one thing, buy an electric toothbrush.

    Flossing is really important. It’s hard to comprehend the gains but since bacteria grow exponentially, removing the small amount between your teeth has outsized benefits.
