I learned that you should brush your teeth about 2 minutes because this can take out all the germs or whatever is inside your mouth. What I do is I put a timer next to me every time I brush my teeth. It will make your teeth clean and very white.:)

Exactly! it takes for me at least 2 to 3 minutes, and it does worth cleaning our teeth to maintain it's stronger teeth and far from any cavities.

I brush my teeth for about 2 to 3 minutes because I have been instructed to do so. However, I am sure brushing for at least two minutes woulod NOT eliminate all the bad things inside our mouth - brushing would only remove easy-to-reach germs.

I saw a tooth brush at the store today that plays music for 2 minutes. You are to brush your teeth until the music stops. Have you ever seen it? I do brush my teeth around 2 minutes.

i dont actually time my brushing but im guessing between 4-5 minutes.. brushing the gums, the tongue and the teeth of course. i follow what my dentist told me. then that's not enough, i try to gargle for a minute with a mouthwash..
