Not brush a teeth for 10 years?

Well, I think it is possible, for example, fluoride ia a nutrient, a substance the body needs for maximum health and growth. It can be found in water, soil and certain plants and foods. It works in a number of ways to stop tooth decay, and even helps to reverse it in its early stages. Firstly, it incorporates itself into tooth enamel to make the teeth more resistant to the acid generated by mouth bacteria. Secondly, fluoride's antibacterial action may be helpful in slowing down bacterial growth.

That's gross! How can she survive in ten years of not brushing her teeth? I feel uncomfortable whenever I didn't brush my teeth for a long time. I bet she have a bad breath now.

This is really disturbing. Well there is a possibility that she did not brush her teeth for 10 years but she probably had an alternative way of cleaning her teeth, like using primitive materials like branches, chewing certain kind of leaves, etc. I personally find it really annoying whenever I fail to brush my teeth for a day due to reasons like (forgetting my brush at home). I can't imagine how can she survive for 10 years without brushing.

Oh my goodness, that sounds scary and i think that woman must be having host of gum problems in her teeth as she had not brushed it since 10 long years. Besides i think brushing is as necessary as having food in our life and u should not do that mistake next time otherwise u would have loads of gum problems like that lady had.

Oh my , i can't survive a day without brushing my teeth. Everyone should brush her /his teeth at least 3 times a day. Germs , bacteria will harbor in our teeth , gums and tongue. I can't imagine how bad is the smell of the mouth for those who don't brush teeth. Food will be rotten in between teeth and stingy odor of fish or meat will be there. I guess if so lazy to brush then might as well gargle oral antiseptics or if none then used salt but best is really to brush teeth with a good toothpaste such as colgate , a time tested product.

shocks! ha ha that's really something ha ha, how on earth that is possible?? probably no chance of getting her teeth clean or maybe she enjoys that way, i wonder if her teeth experience aching?!

I read this article of a study done long ago on indigenous people. These people never brushed their teeth a single day, and yet were found to have absolutely no teeth decay. The reason why is because these people did not eat processed foods, but instead ate natural foods native to their countries. It could be that this woman is eating non-processed foods. I myself found out that toothpaste containing fluoride and glycerin have negative effects on the teeth. My teeth were weak to begin but even brushing them regular toothpaste did not work. It only worsened the conditions of my teeth. When I switched to Earthpaste, my teeth became cleaner and less susceptible to decay. To help it though, I take a vitamin with calcium, magnesium, and zinc. I just need to add in Vitamin D 3. And it may seem strange, but I've taken to using a clean washcloth to clean my teeth. Toothbrushes get bacteria on them quicker than I'd like for them too. But the washclothe is so much gentler and allows me to reach all of my teeth and all of their sides. A toothbrush makes it impossible. There are some people who can definitely get away with barely brushing their teeth where others need to do it constantly. It's really all about diet and what you put on your teeth.
