Brushing your teeth in the shower

I was watching a TV show one time and they did a poll where 25 percent of people admitted to brushing their teeth in the shower to save time! I have never done this in my life. It wouldn't even have occurred to me. There may have been times I have done a sponge bath or quick wash instead of a shower but I have never thought of brushing my teeth in there..I mean how much time does it take?? No more than 3 minutes..Have you ever brushed your teeth in the shower?

I am pretty sure I haven't and I prefer to rinse my mouth with cold water.

Oh wow..I haven't thought of that..I don't have a water bill here so I never think of saving water really, although it would be enviormentally sound.

No, I never did and I will never do, I brush my teeth in the sink and then I floss.

I don't see the reason for shower brushing.

I have never done that. Usually, I brush before a shower. I wouldn't even attempt it.

Nope that never even crossed my mind. I'm a sink person and brush my teeth after my shower

I haven't. I don't really see how it saves time. I can only be brushing or washing; I can't do them simultaneously.

I mean you may or not be shampooing or shaving your legs..why worry about toothbrushing as well?

Nope, never. If I am running that late I will do a wash off bath and brush my teeth at the sink. Soap scum and toothbrushes that go into my mouth do not mix in my opinion.
