Replying to taxes #tzfi

Considering doing an @ everyone for this but I think I won't Really important survey I thought of! I heard it's becoming more common in America and the western world in general for people to not brush their teeth! So I wonder:

The more I've learned about dentistry, the more it seems in need for some actual science

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:07 PM general

The same way people shit on the 80s/90s understanding nutrition and the food pyramid

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:08 PM general

I just brush with water and my electric toothbrush once a night unless I forget

polu Aug 19, 2025 12:11 PM general

I am autistic about the toothpaste flavor, I have to buy the no flavor kind.

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:11 PM general

That’s a thing?

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:12 PM general

I would use toothpaste if I could find that in stores

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:12 PM general

mint tastes like shit

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:12 PM general

They make cinnamon flavored. It’s what my mom uses

polu Aug 19, 2025 12:12 PM general

Yeah, I have to drive ~45 minutes to a store that sells it

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:12 PM general

Mint was literally a psyop to associate clean with a taste to get you to buy product

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:13 PM general

Or you could get the fun kid ones that taste like bubblegum

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:13 PM general

My dentist office has a bunch of weird flavors that they use. They have offered me chocolate one and sounds so gross

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:14 PM general

I'd do that over mint

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:14 PM general

mint genuinely is one of the worst flavours that exists

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:14 PM general

Max and I import our toothpaste, so it has novamin instead of fluoride

this is what I get

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:15 PM general

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:15 PM general

Flavourless should be the default

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:16 PM general

will the silly kids flavour brands existing as a side thing

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:16 PM general

Max, remake the poll but about flossing

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:16 PM general

I'm curious what that split looks like

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:16 PM general

I do that occasionally but less than brushing

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:16 PM general

its if I remember to buy floss picks

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:16 PM general

I’m a sometimes guy. Like not every day but 3 times a week

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:16 PM general

I mean, I think 100% of people do it less than brushing

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:16 PM general

You'd be insane if you did the reverse

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:17 PM general

Floss picks are the way to go

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:17 PM general

floss also should be flavourless

polu Aug 19, 2025 12:17 PM general

I do it like every other day

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:17 PM general

That’s how we get our floss picks

polu Aug 19, 2025 12:17 PM general

I am also autistic about flavorless floss

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:18 PM general

I hate electric toothbrushes and waterpicks But that's a preference thing, I assume they work just fine for people

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:18 PM general

electric toothbrushes are good

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:18 PM general

My mom bought a water pick and it never gets used. Hell we might have thrown it out

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:19 PM general

Waterpick I've never used but my dentice swears by them being super effective

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:19 PM general

They seem to make a mess

polu Aug 19, 2025 12:19 PM general

I have an electric toothbrush but I never turn it on. I use it as a normal toothbrush

I threw out my fancy electric toothbrush from years ago

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:19 PM general

Got sold on them being super great, and just hated them

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:20 PM general

How often do you guys change your toothbrush?

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:20 PM general

When they snap

polu Aug 19, 2025 12:20 PM general

Whenever the bristles look bad

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:20 PM general

I toss mine out like once every 3 months

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:20 PM general

Every 6-12 months or so I change the head on mine

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:20 PM general

I use these nice wooden ones, but I snap them about once a month while brushing

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:20 PM general

based on how it looks

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:21 PM general

I’m an aggressive brusher. I flatten the bristles somewhat fast

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:21 PM general

I just keep using free ones from the dentist. I just have them give me a lot of them

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:21 PM general

Do you ~~shave~~ scrape your tongue?

Mini Aug 19, 2025 12:21 PM general

No

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:22 PM general

I use the free dentist ones as a rubber band gun

polu Aug 19, 2025 12:22 PM general

Everytime I brush, I scrape at the end

That shit I don’t think works

polu Aug 19, 2025 12:22 PM general

That looks like I will cut off my tongue

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:22 PM general

Most of them are these little handheld ones that literally shave your tongue

Spooky Phijkchu Aug 19, 2025 12:23 PM general

I think these U ones are meant to be better

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:23 PM general

Just drink acidic drinks to burn the top layer of your tounge

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:23 PM general

no sraping required

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:30 PM general

Maybe these do work, but only if you are subhuman enough to need them

Phijkchu_Pikachu Aug 19, 2025 12:30 PM general

so none of us

The toothbrush usually has ribbed edges on the back for the same purpose, this seems a bit excessive
