Chewing sugarfree gum 20minutes after every meal (or after as many as possible) will keep your mouth healthy and your teeth protected. Flossing is actually more important than brushing and so its something you should be more concerned about. ------------- Brushing your teeth 3 times a day is important as it makes sure that you're keeping bacteria away and stopping the forming of plaque.
