If you like raw then you'll like receding gums

it turns me on when my gums bleed

i only floss once a month because the buildup of tissue to be damaged with a good hard floss is heavenly

You can actually do more harm than good by brushing your teeth more than twice a day, I've heard.


You're supposed to use a soft toothbrush and brush really gently or you'll ruin your gums. Most people press too hard when they brush and they're doing it twice as much damage if they brush twice a day

Yeah @Apostasy it ruins your enamel and stuff because it wears it down, which can be bad.

I brush my teeth ridiculously often. :P Like 5 times usually. :/ I can't stand having any aftertaste in my mouth.

People destroy their gums by brushing twice a day though

Usually two but sometimes three. If I'm living alone it might slip to one tho
