floridaman here
now im actually going to have to start using toothpaste again just to get my flouride
and i dont even mean this as a bit you dont need toothpaste it doesnt help with bad breath or cleaning your teeth its only useful for the flouride if you dont get it naturally
You should be using fluoride toothpaste regardless of if your water has fluoride or not. Fluoridated water is better than nothing, but fluoride only prevents tooth decay when it’s actually physically in contact with your teeth. Obviously that contact is much more consistent with two minutes of brushing compared to the seconds it takes water to pass through your mouth when you drink.

the insulting assumption that i take one sip of water per day jfc the internet is amazing when people respond to you they dont even stop and think for like even a moment
im in my 40s with all my teeth even wisdom and no cavities and drink almost exclusively tap water daily so i think ill continue on this course comrade but you rub that chalky shit all over your gums if you like dont let me talk you out of it
I didn’t say any of that but okay. Glad to hear your teeth are in good health. Have a nice rest of your day.
you did say exactly this its in the words that you wrote right above mine
you are not very subtly claiming that i dont drink much water during the day in order to get sufficient contact of flouride to my teeth. you know that. i can return microaggression with microaggression with the best of em
This is some real brain expanding third eye open shit
You need to go on Rogan
no im serious not only is toothpaste uneccesary to good oral hygiene but numerous peer reviewed published studies show that not only does it not help you clean your teeth better but brushing without it often leads to better results
another fun one: there is no good science behind flossing. the usa is one of the only countries that still pushes it. some countries that used to push it have stopped because the studies just dont show any significant benefit
