That you aren't supposed to rinse immediately after brushing your teeth. It's better to wait 15 minutes to let the fluoride strengthen your enamel.
Been brushing the wrong way for 30 years, apparently.
Ain’t nobody got time for that!
Just spit it all out three or four times, wipe your mouth off and go about your day. You won't even notice.
Actually rinsing isn't needed at all
You're probably right, I just hate that toothpaste aftertaste and feeling in my mouth otherwise
Find a different flavour of toothpaste!
Use the tooth brush and running water to brush your tongue clean, and spit a few times. That way you get a clean tasting/feeling mouth while not rinsing the suds from your teeth.
Yes, this is correct. I do not rinse. Nor do I get my brush wet before brushing. The only water I use is to rinse my brush after brushing.
Dry brushing sounds miserable... No thank you!
Silly to not even try, my friend...blunderworld...
You mouth is usually pretty wet so it does not stay dry for long.
No dentist has ever said this to me.
A dentist said it to me years ago.
But I suspect that using a Sonicare makes a bigger difference for tooth health than not rinsing.
Me neither. I feel betrayed.
"Spit don't rinse" folks.
Yeah. I had to give a "how to" class and I picked brushing your teeth as a simple topic. I got to the end after brushing your teeth. I said rinse your mouth out and your done. The instructor said "the presentation was okay, but you aren't supposed to rinse your teeth out right away."
I had no idea as amid to late 20 something at the time. What else do you do wrong?
The fuck?
And if you throw up, don't brush your teeth as you're then just scrubbing stomach acid into them. Rinse and gargle with water then brush an hour later
So I tried this for a few months last year. Although I didn’t rinse 15 mins afterwards or anything - I just spit as much of the toothpaste out as I could.
Couldn’t really tell a difference other than it was strange feeling to have all the toothpaste remnants in your mouth. Maybe my teeth were slightly whiter? I eventually went back to my old ways of rinsing. Maybe I’ll try it again though.
Meh I doubt it makes much difference. Especially if you live somewhere that has fluoride in the water. Most of the US, don't know about Europe.
This is also true if you use something like sensodine for sensitivity. If you let it sit on your teeth a bit it works better
