Not sure if this is 100% scientifically backed but I read a bit by a dental hygienist on a forum that you shouldn't rinse when brushing with proper toothpaste because it can help remineralize the teeth if when its not rinsed away after

Its annoying but its a good way to cut down on mindless snacking at the very least for me so its something I do sometimes. Hope its not voodoo

My teeth are so tight I can sometimes barely get floss down between them. A brush would have no chance of cleaning the whole sides of the teeth.

You may already know, but Glide by oralb is great for tight teeth. It's flatter and slippery. The only issue I've found is that it snaps more often.

Yeah, I loved that floss! Right up until I found it's so good because it's coated in Teflon.
