Do you bring toothpaste and toothbrush at work?

I rinse my teeth after every meal, I take. Howeve, I do not bring toothbrush etc. to my office.

My dentists says that you only have to brush twice day, and you have to do it correctly. You should not brush after every meal because there the enamel will become thinner from constant brushing. If I need a fresh breath, I get a mint or a mouthwash.

No I don't! I don't bring a whole lot with me to work. Food, coffee, etc. But not my toothbrush! I only brush once in the morning and once at night. But I'm sure your dentist appreciates what you do. lol

They can always bring a mouthwash and gargle instead of toothbrush. But i really prefer brushing my teeth than just gargle mouthwash after eating. I too bring toothbrush and toothpaste at work or anywhere i go..just in case i would need it when i get to eat something that really smells bad (but tastes good anyway). I never take out those two things in my bag so i never forget to bring it.

Hi dear, I don’t carry this to office. Normally I brush up my teeth in the morning and at night before bed time only. After lunch time, I don’t think it is required. As I am particular that I want to be clean every food, I used to was properly and even after having a tea also, I wash my mouth if possible. It feels good. But carrying brush and past to office is not practical for me. Also, as I don’t have any teeth problems, I am happy at all times in this matter. Thank-s

Hi there! Brushing one's teeth is one of the basic personal hygiene routine for me. I actually have a toothpaste tube and toothbrush kept in my office drawer. That way I don't have to carry them whenever I go to work. I keep it there so I can brush my teeth after meals and whenever I feel like brushing my teeth. Normally I take my lunch in the office during weekdays and we do have snacks from time to time so it is "safer" to keep a toothpaste and toothbrush handy to prevent unwanted and awkward "dragon breath" after eating. I have workmates who are smokers and they also make it a point to brush their teeth after some puffs. So far most of us do have a toothbrush and toothpaste in our workplace because most of the time we would queue in the lavatory to freshen up our breaths hehehe. I hope your office mates will be as hygienic like you so you won't have to deal with awkward "dragon breaths" from time to time...hehehe just kidding! Have a good day and happy mylotting!

I always bring a toothbrush in a small bag. I just don't like it when I feel that my breath stinks and I am allergic to mouth sprays. So I keep a toothbrush handy. And for those who will say that germs are lurking in my toothbrush because I store it in my bag while wet, well, I have resolved this "problem". I place my toothbrush underneath the hand dryer and it takes a few minutes to dry my toothbrush before I store it away.

I don't bring toothpaste and toothbrush to work because anyway i will come late to work at 10:00am

I brush my teeth only at home in the morning and there is no need to bring them at work. We can eat some mouth refreshner after food to get teh food smell away and there is no need to brush the teeth every time we eat something. May be brushing teeth after eating everytime but I cannot do that for sure. Thank You for sharing.

I think many people will not bring tooth brush and tooth paste to work. That is something uncommon, and no one will brush their teeth after every meal. The most we will use water to wash the food residue away by gargle with water. That will help except you ate something really smelly like "durian".

Laniekins, thanks for raising this issue of bringing toothbrush and toothpaste to place of work. Well, I am doing exactly what you are doing. All the best.

i don't bring toothpaste and toothbrush to my work because i go home to eat and then i brush my teeth, but now i'm thinking in buy those because now i'm not going home to eat, just to save some gas and money.

Well, I just do not bring my toothbrush at work, I have a spare of toothbrush at my workplace. We have a large pantry so I got a place to store my toothbrush. And every after meal, i get to clean my teeth.

no need to bring at work, you need one to brush teeth, not many time in a day.

Hi. laniekins. No. I have never brought my toothbrush with me to work at all. I will just chew a piece of chewing gum that will clean my teeth really well until I get home to brush them. Continue to keep up the great work by brushing your teeth at work.

I am 65 now, when i was a kid the only tooth paste in the market here in my place in india was Colgate and Colgate tooth powder, in my family some used powder, some the paste. I use Colgate total now and the herbal tooth powder from Ramdeb baba ashram ,I gargle with Listerene too. But there is no need of carrying them to office, i brush early morning , and before going to bed, at that time i am in home Thanks for sharing God bless you, have a nice day ahead.

I always have it together with a liquid hand soap in a small pouch in my bag. I also always have wet wipes and paper towels so I don't worry about hygiene when I'm out.

That's what gum or mint is for.

No we sue PEPSODENT which fights with the germs for 24 hrs therefore we donot find a need to bring tooth brush & tooth paste to work place.
