Use your teeth? / myLot

I have a bad habit of using my teeth to open things if I am unable to get it open with my hands. My mother used to nag at me constantly for doing it because it's bad for your teeth, and I've had so much dental work done. Does anyone else do this? Do you catch yourself doing it and go WHOOPS! What other kids of bad habits do you have?

I use my teeth to open things all of the time if I cannot get it off with my hands. It is something that I have done as long as I can remember. I am sure that my mother gave me grief for it at one point or another.

While I have lots of bad habits like smoking and drinking too much coffee and swearing I have not had the habit of using my teeth to open things in years. Mostly, I am sure, because I'd (a) have to remember where they are and (b) actually have to wear them LOL

Hi friend, i am very careful about my teeth. I never bite any hard things. Also i put braces over it to correct it. Eventhough i have lesser teeth, that is 28, there occured misplacements. So i put braces to correct that. Now its almost all right. Thanks.
