Dental hygiene poll

(Anonymous) 2016-06-19 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
How often do you brush? Floss? Have you ever oil pulled? Do you bleach your teeth?
What condition are your teeth in?

Twice a day.
Should floss more often.
Huh?
No.
Very good, no cavities or fillings.

Not as much as I should. I get overwhelmed with depression a lot and when i do its like, the first thing to go. In a perfect world twice a day though.
Only when something is stuck in my teeth
No but I've thought about it
No
I grind my teeth so the enamel is pretty weak in spots and I have quite a few fillings

basically I have bad teeth and it is my biggest secret shame. I would not talk about this not anon

Once a day (I suck I know)
Once a day
Considered it but I probably wouldn't have the patience to sit there with coconut oil in my mouth
Nope
Shitty, likely from grinding, dry mouth, and a surplus of phytic acids from consuming too many nonfermented foods over the years

Mine are in pretty good condition, and I had braces as a kid, so they're pretty straight/even. The only problem I have is that they're not as white as I'd like, and there's nothing I can do about it. I've used every type of whitening product imaginable (including the professional strength gel/trays you get from the dentist) and it just does nothing. I've followed the directions perfectly, but I've never seen any difference. I don't know whether my teeth are resistant to it or something, but obviously they have some issue, and it's seriously frustrating.

I've seen things that say you can't really do anything other than remove stains and restore them to their natural color, but if that's true then how the fuck do these Instagram girls have teeth that practically glow in the dark they're so white? That shit sure as hell isn't natural. I've even bought the products they've supposedly used to make their teeth so white, but they did nothing for me. It's so damn frustrating.

Instagram... it's probably a photo filter.

ayrt

That could be the case, but the YouTube "beauty" girls are the same way, and I don't know that there are filters for videos? Or maybe there are, and it's just some big secret everyone keeps or something.

I've seen "before and after" pictures advertising some product (and I've tried most of them) where the before is the same as my teeth now, and the after is blindingly white. I've never been able to get those results no matter what products I use so I don't know what the deal is.

Youtube video coloring and lighting and what not are usually edited in post. I remember once a youtuber (not even a specific beauty vlogger, just a youtuber who had pretty high def set up) posted a video that had a comparison of what their raw footage looked like compared to what you saw, and the difference was big.

Media lies to you, basically. Even media that pretends it doesn't, like the internet.

Twice a day.
I floss occasionally but not enough.
Wat IS oil pulling even?

I've tried bleaching, but still pretty yellow.

Oil pulling is swishing with an oil like coconut oil for 10 minutes and then spitting it out. It was a fad for a while. No idea how effective it was but the hype was that it was brilliant.

I brush twice a day and floss every day before bed. My teeth are okay.

I brush and floss twice a day. But I've never bleached my teeth even though my teeth have a bit of staining. It just seems really unhealthy and bad for your teeth. The American obsession with teeth being perfect, shiny white is stupid. Better not to damage my teeth by bleaching.

I brush two or three times a day using an ultrasonic toothbrush. I floss after meals. I have some cavities anyway, and I hope they don't get worse before I can afford to have them filled.

Once or twice a day depending on what I've eaten/how busy I am. Twice a week. Hell no. Also no.

Decent enough. I have a few fillings, one minor cavity that's scheduled to be filled next month, and my teeth are pretty white without looking unnatural.

I brush twice. Floss once. And use a fluoride rinse twice a day. My teeth are in terrible condition. I genetically have bad teeth and I have a crazy sugar addiction.

I brush twice a day and floss once a day, before I go to bed.

My teeth are currently in the red. I have an abscess due to a nasty cavity that I let go for too long due to not being able to afford a dentist in quite some time (I'm getting treated for it though right now) that needs a root canal. I also had to have a few molars pulled due to bad dentistry and need another pulled, and a half done root canal from almost two years ago that I still need a cap on.

I blame drawing the short end of the tooth genetics stick.
