Brushing Your Teeth

Post Reply New Topic

Brushing my teeth can make me gag too. I often can't use toothpaste because of it. A couple years ago I couldn't brush my teeth at all for a few months because every single time I put a toothbrush into my mouth I would gag to the point I would throw up. But then this got better on its own.

I wish there a better toothpaste, I used to buy sensitive toothpaste, it was strong. My Listerine is good,my old Listerine was strong, it had hydrogen peroxide in it for white teeth,but it was for strength your teeth.

Hmm ...
I have been brushing my teeth in the kitchen for several reasons and for several decades;

One,
When the toilet flushes it aerosolizes some of what's in the bowl & I don't want my toothbrush in the same room as that mist.

Two
The cat litter boxes are in the bathroom & they make dust and I don't want my toothbrush in the same room as that

Three
Bathroom is an interior room with zero sunlight reaching it & I don't want to leave my damp toothbrush sitting in a lightless cave

Four
The kitchen counter is noticeably higher than the bathroom counter
& I have a couple different back issues going on

Ya know, I've not measured the height of either counter before, let's go find out ...
Bathroom counter height: about 30.75 inches, 80.5cm
Kitchen counter height: about 36.5 inches, 92.5cm

Hadn’t thought of counter height and my back, good point and my back has been hurting .,thank you
