Do you have a routine down so that you brush your teeth twice a day? I tend to struggle with this throughout the years. I only usually brush my teeth in the morning and I forget to brush them right before bed too. I need to get in the habit of brushing at least twice a day, I'm thinking about maybe sitting an alarm on my phone to help me remember. I also floss and use mouthwash too whenever I do brush my teeth.

Heck, I tend to brush my teeth about once every three days. Disgusting, I know, but I suppose I'm too lazy to brush them daily. When I start seeing a little bit of plaque on my teeth is usually when I brush them, or I'm going to a special outing and will be close to people.

It's not something that I do frequently. There are some days when I brush twice and there are days when only once is enough. I have never gone a day without brushing my teeth. I don't use any mouthwash because I don't trust them not to have any side effects.

I have had problems with this since childhood because I almost never brush my teeth twice a day, usually only in the evening. I know that there are problems because of this, but I keep forgetting. I brush my teeth 2 times a day only after my tooth starts to hurt and it becomes clear that I will soon go to the dentist.
