Edit: Since it’s come up a couple times in the comment, I’ll add that there’s evidence use of a water flosser is more effective than dental floss.

I feel like it’s more than that…
When I switched to electric 7 or 8 years ago, I really didn’t like it. It was super uncomfortable and tickled my mouth.
I just powered through it because I was told that I would get used to it.
Indeed I did get used to it and quickly began to feel that I had never actually properly brushed my teeth before going electric.
Part of what helps is the little extra pulse every 30 seconds and auto shut off after two minutes. Really keeps you on track with 30 seconds in each quadrant of your mouth.
Two minutes is a long time so having the timer built into the toothbrush is super helpful.
Only concern to note is that applying too much pressure and/or using the maximum vibration setting can be bad for your gums and cause recession.
Be very gentle with the electric toothbrush so that you do not cause any excessive gum recession.
Once you get used to electric, a conventional toothbrush will seem archaic.
Hey replying to you because well its an empty threat so far
Basically you me and everybody else could have improved technique with an electric toothbrush
You have to plan not too much pressure and just kind of hold it and move back and forth
I still don’t have perfect technique and I don’t brush every night. So sad for me I know
In other words cool beans good luck brushing your teeth every night
Minimum twice a day my friend, personal hygiene is the best thing you can do for yourself. Once you establish the habit you won’t even think about it.
For what it’s worth I have a bite guard and I can only wear it when I actually brush my teeth
On top of power cleaning my asshole with my shower head’s “power clean” setting…
My personal hygiene is just fine but thank you for the advice.
At first I thought you were being pretentious so I was being defensive but you’re just being straight up so cool beans then
Basically I’m just a little bit tipsy so I’m being hella aggressive right now.
All that being said, do you exclusively use toilet paper for your butt?
Because if that’s the case truth be told you could be taking personal hygiene lessons from me.
Poop schedule is directly before the morning shower - as Sarah Silverman once said, It isn’t clean unless it’s two inches deep clean.
And if it’s pretentious to brush your teeth every day then I guess I am pretentious.
Bite guard is smart, I need to use mine more.
You get ones that flash when you’re doing too much pressure.
