at first when i see you cry
I’m not alone when I say that one of my biggest turn-offs is Yellow Teeth. This faux-pas is not prejudice in any way; all men, women, children, rich or poor, young or old are susceptible to falling victim (although I guess I’ll let the poor, old or young, slide a bit, given their economic circumstances. But it’s still nasty!). My disdain for yellow teeth is so deep that whenever I see a chick with yellow teeth, I am so completely turned off. And I’m not even into the ladies.
For those of you who care about your oral hygiene and overall health, you should definitely invest in a Sonicare toothbrush. I’ve been using one for over a year and my teeth brushing experience has never been better. I haven’t been to a dentist in quite sometime (yes, gross, I know), but this baby has been keeping the cavities in check. You might say “How the eff do you know whether or not you have cavities? and I’ll tell you, I don’t. But if something this strong makes my brain feel like it’s vibrating whenever I put it in my mouth (that’swhatshesaid), I know something good is going on. Not to mention, I haven’t had to use any whitening products since I started with this brush yet my teeth look like I have
The brush heads are tiny enough where you can maneuver around all of the nooks and crannies of your mouth without feeling like you’re going to gag yourself trying to reach behind the molars (eh hem, manual toothbrush), but big enough where the brush will clean more than one tooth at a time (*cough* Oral-B battery operated toothbrush *cough*). There’s also a timer that shuts off after 2 minutes so you don’t have to stare at a clock to get in the proper brushing time (ADA recommended). AND, there’s another button that changes vibrations to let you know when to move onto the next quadrant of your mouth so that all teeth get equal love time.
I would caution that messy brushers like myself (with the foam dripping down the handle all the way down to your wrists and you look like a rabid dog with foam all over the sides of your mouth) unscrew the toothbrush head after every brushing to rinse out the foam that catches in the handle. Trust me. You do not want to be changing your brush head one day to find brown foul smelling water resting in the handle, which also prevents the toothbrush head from vibrating at its full potential.
Replacement brushes aren’t cheap, but if you’re a lazy bum like me, this is the best thing you can do for your mouth. Besides flossing.
