When I was a kid, I am so lazy to brush my teeth. I brush my teeth like once a day, and like you, I don't brush my teeth when there's no school or that I just stayed home (that's what I remember). After reading articles how you should brush your teeth, I brush my teeth everytime I go to the bathroom, even without toothpaste. I can't stand the feeling of having something stuck in my teeth and irritates me when I don't brush everyday. So, the answer depends. I brush my teeth like 2-4 times a day. ^^

So what you are saying is if you are on a week vacation, you don't brush your teeth for the whole week, isn't that nasty, not to mention what it is doing to your teeth. I was brought up in a home where our mother didn't do anything to keep our teeth in good shape, maybe take us to the dentist if we had to have one pulled. Other than that we never went to have them cleaned or filled. I was into dentures early. And they have never fit right, so eating can be a chore at times and soem things that I used to love to eat I can't any more. We should take care of our teeth as good as we can, cause you can't get them back. Doesn't it look bad when you open your mouth after not brushing them for a week to someone you meet and open your mouth. There is nothing that say something about a person as to see them open their mouth and see a nice white smile.

As often as I put toothpaste on my toothbrush. I do not have routine for brushing, I just brush whenever. I do, however make sure to brush before going out to meet someone, or go to meetings, church, etc. To tell the truth, I am sometimes too lazy to brush but once I have done it, I am glad I did, it just feels so much better. I feel the same about shaving, I hate it but feel goo afterwards. Blessings

That's not healthy for yourself and for the people around you. You should always brush your teeth two to three times a day with or without school.. Don't be too lazy. Brush your teeth everyday..

I brush my teeth once a day in the morning. In night , i just goggle my mouth with water. i hate brushing twice a day. Although, my father compels me to do so , i will not do.

Its twice a day when im out. One in the morning and once in the evening before I sleep. When Im at home its 3 times a day after every meal. Or sometimes when Im lazy its just once before going to sleep.

I always brush my teeth twice a day. If I don't go anywhere, no one can smell my funky breath, but I brush anyway because 1. I don't feel right unless I do and 2. I don't want my teeth to decay and fall out. I have seen people not much older than me with teeth missing for lack of good dental hygiene and I don't want that to happen to me. So I always, always brush my teeth

I brush my teeth at least 2 times a day. In the morning and before bed but sometimes forget to brush before bed. I almost always brush in the morning because my breath stinks when I get up.
