I brush my teeth 3 times a day, at least. I brush them in the morning, first thing when I get up. I brush them in the afternoon after lunch, and then again at bedtime. Sometimes, I brush them in between. Today I got up and brushed them. I now just had a shower, 5 hours after I got up, and brushed them again. I will be having a late lunch, around 3pm, because I am having my son and daughter-in-law over for supper and we will not be eating till about 7pm. So I will be brushing them again after I eat lunch at 3pm. Then I will be brushing them again when I go to bed tonight. That will make it four times today.
How often do you brush yours? Am i being too protective of my teeth by brushing them so many times a day? I am a smoker, too, so I like to freshen my mouth.

i do not smoke and dont have the urgency of freshing up my mouth quickly. I normally brush twice a day once before having my bath and second in the night before i go to sleep. I think this is good enough to keep my teeth clean and free from cavities.

Your right, since you don't smoke twice is enough. Keep up the good brushing.

Please continue to brush your teeth, daily. You're doing the right thing. I think it's important to brush them at night & in the morning.

I brush my teeth twice a day, once before I go out and then again at night before I go to bed afterwards at night I always use a mouthwash, so that it can work on my teeth and gums over night. If you brush them too many times it can wear away the enamel on your teeth.
