Do You Brush Your Teeth in the Shower?

[TheSandman]

That's it really. In conversation with my 17 year old DD just now, she mentioned that she brushed her teeth in the shower. (While having a shower obviously, she doesn't get in JUST to brush her teeth.)

I thought it was the oddest thing. I've never heard anyone say they do that before.

Does anyone else brush their teeth in the shower or is she as weird as I think she is?

Every morning! It is efficient! Although I may have to hide this thread when people say me and your DD are disgusting.

Me!

Yes I do this often, it saves time in the morning.

I have to say I started doing this a few months ago!

Nope, never.

Yes, I always do. I’d never considered other people didn’t until your post. I’m going to ask dh in the morning

I do in the morning, my shower room is cold, I’d rather stand in the hot shower to brush my teeth.

I used to before I got an electric toothbrush.

I also have an electric toothbrush and have never considered brushing teeth in the shower

No. . . .never

Yes, every morning!

My DP does! On the hand I find it horrendous to brush my teeth with warm water (just a wierd personal thing). Also I don't shower everyday

Of course! I can’t see why you wouldn’t !

Yep! Twice a day!

ignores comments where people indicate they don't wash once a day

Wha? I have a battery operated toothbrush which I assume wouldn't enjoy this, but surely the order is:

1. shower
2. Dress
3. breakfast
4. Teeth

Do you shower-teeth-brushers not eat breakfast?

No way

Yes though that was normal!

Always shower after I've eaten.

Repulsive, I also think its grim how say 5 people brush their teeth and spit in the sink and then someone will have a sink wash 🤢🤢🤢🤢 I clean my sink but would never fill it up to say wash my face or anyone elses sink 🤢

I do, although not every day. I don't know why but I like it! I'm usually quite efficient in the shower, I don't stand under the water and just relax but when I clean my teeth in the shower, I'm forced to stand still under it whilst I brush and I find it relaxing and it somehow feels justified because I'm not just standing there doing nothing, I'm cleaning my teeth lol!

People who do this, how long are you brushing your teeth for? You're supposed to brush for a full 2 minutes.... don't you end up wasting a huge amount of water in that time?

Repulsive? has the lockdown gotten to people that much, Jesus Christ.

Sometimes, if I’ve got a hair mask on and it needs 10/15 mins I’ll brush them in the shower to kill time while I’m waiting.

I use an electric toothbrush so no.
I don’t think I would though!

I brush mine at the same time as washing my hair and whilst I rinse it out.
