to be fair, everyone’s teeth are different - some people just get blessed with healthy teeth, and if you don’t eat messy, you might be good with a sip of water in between morning / evening tooth brushing. After all, cave men also didn’t get caries in their 20-something years of life at least.
While it’s true that some people inherit the genes for harder enamel, which goes a long way toward determining how scrupulous a person has to be about their dental hygiene, it wasn’t until very recently that we had diets filled with refined sugar.
I’m a school bus driver and one of the girls on my bus this morning was complaining about her teeth being yellow. I asked her if she brushes them and she said “no” like I had asked her if she could fly. TBF we think her mom steals her medication so her lack of basic life skills is understandable.
Fuck not brushing your teeth regularly and having unbrushed teeth from lunch till night time.
I try to brush my teeth three times a day. Used to have regular issues, now I don’t and my teeth are less yellow.
No brainer.

Hey, there’s no sugar in MY diet. Only high fructose corn syrup.
In everything.
This is why instead of brushing and flossing I just gnaw on roadkill.

I just found out my daughter’s best friend only brushes once a day at bedtime. They’re 11. I truly question some parents.
Coincidentally whenever they’re facetiming I always yell in the background if she brushed her teeth this morning.
I see you Cecily. Your parents may not but I do. Brush your damn teeth!
Once a day isn’t crazy if she doesn’t eat tons of sugar.

I think every three weeks is reasonable.
I just don’t stop brushing. Every second you’re not brushing, you’re letting bacteria fester in your mouth.
Some people have toothpics in their mouth, I have a whole toothbrush.
