Since I'm a smoker and drink lots of coffee, I brushed my teeth 3-4 times a day. How about you?

Your only supposed to brush them twice a day, so I stick to that. I heard any more then that is harmful to your gums.

I usually brush my teeth 2 times a day. One in the morning and another at night. Some days I brush my teeth more than 2 times because I drink lots of coffee and tea and these stain my teeth quite a bit.

Mine too. I know my teeth are very sensitive, and wish I could get some bleaching done, but the dentist says it's not that bad, and if I did, it would hurt pretty bad anyway. I wonder if drinking coffee from a straw would help. Ha. That would look funny! Thanks for replying. :-)

try using sensodyne whitening toothpaste is works pretty decent and relieves the sensitivity to hot and cold foods in about a week of constant use.

2-3 times a day, depends on what I eat. I LOVE spicy stuff so I keep up with brushing a lot. :)

I am a fanatic about brushing...I lost all the enamel on my teeth due to frequent illness as a child, so 5 - 6 times a day isn't unusual.

I usually brush when I get up after each meal and before I go to sleep. It's alot of brushing but I like to have good breath, and pretty teeths. I do smoke myself too and this is one of the reasons why I brush so much. Don't want it to go yellow now. I have some frens that their teeth turns yellow because of smoking and I was like.. ew.....
