You can but I do not suggest it, 2 times daily is enough, after breakfast and before bed. But if you eat something sugary, say, Cake, it can help rid away the cavity-makers. There are 2 risks when brushing your teeth too often. The first is that the teeth enamel (the teeth coating layer) might wear out with too many brushing. The second issue is generating pressure on the gums, which weakens them and might cause gingivitis in some (rare)cases.

I brush my teeth 2 times a day. Once in the morning and Once before I go to bed. Many people say to brush your teeth after every meal, but that's too hard to remember! haha XD

The amount of times you should brush your teeth per day is 2 times. You should aim to brush your teeth for at least 2-4 minutes each time. Plaque soon gathers up in between and on the surface of the teeth. If you do not brush your teeth for a while they will turn yellow and your teeth could start to erode. If they erode you will have to have fillings. Also when you don't brush your teeth for a while your breath will start to smell. With your toothbrush you should brush all around your mouth and open it wide so you can brush the back teeth. If you want to get remaining plaque away use some good mouthwash. You can use salt water to rinse out your mouth, it is equally just as good as mouthwash but you must not swallow it (spit it out).

You can do anything too much. It is recommended to brush after eating. If you feel the need to brush when you haven't eaten anything since the last time you brushed, you may have an obsessive-compulsive disorder.
