Too many folks ITT with bad oral hygiene. Brush your teeth twice a day and floss at least once a day. I grew up in a very poor area and seeing sick folks who also had rotten and missing teeth made me realize how much dental health is connected with someone's overall health.

Fuck it I'm not flossing daily. It's annoying enough to occasionally clean my braces.

I actually get nauseous while touching the inside of my mouth with a toothbrush (or when standing for too long, so that problem might be exclusive to me).

I'd rather just kill myself than have to brush more than two times a day and floss regularly.

You can look forward to losing all your teeth later in life then.
