Re: How often do you brush/floss/rinse in a day?
BRUSH: x3 after each meal
FLOSS: none at present - ortho said 'don't' at this stage :/
RINSE: about 4 times with salt and water only (ortho recommended)

Re: How often do you brush/floss/rinse in a day?
I'm lazier than everyone so far.
Brush 2-3 times a day (more often than not-2)
Floss every 2nd day (unless something is stuck and bothering me), have done it less lately because I can't get between a lot of my teeth right now
Rinse 2 times (is this rinse with mouthwash or rinse after food with water? If water then about twice as well as the mouthwash).

Re: How often do you brush/floss/rinse in a day?
Brush: 4 (morning, twice throughout day, night)
Floss: 1 (before bed)
Rinse: Too many to count. Keep mouth wash in my handbag and constantly drink/rinse water.

Brush: 3, sometimes 4

Rinse: with mouthwash, once every 2 days; with water, very often.

Re: How often do you brush/floss/rinse in a day?
Brush - x2 (morning and night)
Floss - x1 (try to do it at night, but sometimes in morning)
Rinse - like others, I drink a lot of water throughout the day anyway. I use mouthwash a few times a week.

Re: How often do you brush/floss/rinse in a day?
a) Brush - after every meal/drink that isn't water (probably 3 times a day)
b) Floss - maybe once very other week I do use my waterpik before I brush my teeth though
c) Rinse - no idea, most of the time all I drink is water so quite often?

Re: How often do you brush/floss/rinse in a day?
Brush: 3 or 4 times. For sure after each meal and one in the am. I might miss brushing after breakfast if something light.
Floss: At least once a day and it is at night If I have time I floss after lunchtime.
Waterpik: 1 a day at bedtime.
Rinse: I rinse with water after breakfast if I don't brush. I rinse with mouthwash after brushing.

Re: How often do you brush/floss/rinse in a day?
a) Brush - 3-4 times a day. I only limit my meals to lunch and dinner. Sometimes super soft fruit for breakfast.
b) Floss - once a day, only at night. Sometimes twice at night.
c) Rinse - ACT alcohol free mouthwash twice a day - once morning, once before bed
I usually eat Greek yogurt or light lunches, so everything is removed quite well. Have these GUM brand picks (skinny, white and green) that come in a small plastic case smaller than my floss box. I use those picks on my molars, as that is where I chew my food. Works real well!!

Re: How often do you brush/floss/rinse in a day?
Brush four times a day- morning lunch dinner bed
Floss once at bed
Rinse everytime I eat and with water after tea or coffee to clean my mouth out.
It feels like I'm always doing something to my teeth... Brushing, mouthwash, floss, interdental brushes, water rinse, changing my elastics.... Just checking them in the mirror!!!
