There's a short story like this where all the routine stuff gets stacked on to each other

Yes 2min * 2 times * 365 days = 1460 min / 60 = 24.3hrs

Who brushes their teeth for 2 mins? I go hardcore with the speed and friction and maybe brush for 10-15 seconds as hard as I can at like 240brushes per minute, cause I'm always rushing out the door but like I figure it's all about the total brushes not quantity of time.

It's the recommended amount. Besides, you ain't suppose to brush hard and fast unless you just hate the enamel on your teeth.

How signifigant is enamel damage from brushing? I ask because I must have gotten some absurd teeth genetics; never had a cavity or any cavitation whatsoever, despite never brushing my teeth as a kid. Once went 3yrs without seeing a dentist or brushing, had black tartar on my teeth, and still... nothing. (I brush daily now.)

I think anyone with an electric toothbrush brushes for 2min

by Anonymous 1 week ago

I find it hard to finish in 2 minutes. When my brush tells my the 2mins are over I'm usually just starting the front teeth and then I have the tongue left.

Assuming they brush for 2 minutes

by Anonymous 1 week ago

Which you're supposed to. 30 seconds per quadrant.

by Shot_Juggernaut 1 week ago

What if they do 45?

by Anonymous 1 week ago

45 minutes seems excessive

by Anonymous 1 week ago

I meant milliseconds

Time well spent inmyopinion .. multi-tasker bonus is you can floss while watching TV ;--)

People who don't brush twice a day probably spend 24 hours annually in the dentist

Nope. I brush twice a day now but I brushed once a day and often not at all for days at a time because I was basically a lazy bum for like 25 years . Never got a cavity nor tooth pain nor nothing. However if I kept it up I would have issues so I changed my ways but still, probably depends on genetics and diet tbh.

I brush 3-4 min once a day and also use teethpicks occasionally. Do this for years and I've never had a hole. Been years since I had plague aswel.

Probably recover all that time by being in the dentist office for less time

One day of brushing vs time spent at the dentist

by hilpertallison 1 week ago

I also probably spend a few weeks a year sitting on the edge of my bed staring at nothing before work in the morning too

by AffectionateGrape 1 week ago

I don't even want to 😂 probably weeks of my life gone every year.

by Shot_Juggernaut 1 week ago

That's why I just chew on a stick, the whole brushing thing is just a false narrative planted by Big Toothpaste

by Queasy-Wolverine 1 week ago

That's actually a thing, Search up miswak

Thank you for this math. Now I know that if I brush my teeth for 24 hours straight then I'll be good for the year

by eugenejohnson 1 week ago

by Anonymous 1 week ago

I brush only once daily for 3-4 minutes. I know, I just hate brushing before I go to bed.

by gottliebemanuel 1 week ago

Math. Read the rules.

Annually being a key aspect here

by Anonymous 1 week ago

Alternative is 24 hours in the dentist chair per year. I know what I'll choose.
