I squeeze the toothpaste straight into my mouth instead of putting it on the brush. Saves me at least a minute a week.

@fesshole Don't know about dentists over there, but at least here we get to hear that the brushing itself is the most important. The quality and brand of the toothpaste matters less. As long as it contains some fluoride.

It's all about properly removing the biofilm of microorganisms from the teeth at least twice a day. Best with the electric toothbrush for the full two minutes the machine tells you. Dental care is about preventing issues.
