Heck ya. Twice.
Brush my tongue/roof of my mouth. rinse and repeat.
Plus the underside of my tongue where my molars meet my gum.....
Ya. I like a clean mouth.0 -
oh and i floss every other day too0

My toothbrush has a tongue/cheek cleaner on the back, so you don't redistribute tooth germs onto the tongue. I also use Listerine Total Care after every brushing.0
-
Of course I do! I brush my lips and gums too.0
-
I do as well, usually causing a gag reflex. I'm not a good flosser though.....in fact I don't think i've flossed in years. Always brush well and scrub the tongue, finish with a listerine bath. :bigsmile:0

yes and use a tounge scapper, and floss0
-
Yes0
-
Wait a minute....You are supposed to brush your teeth and your tongue and the roof of your mouth, too?? Cripes!!0

Yup. Floss, brush, scrape, rinse. Dentist 4 times a year. Yes, I'm that anal about dental hygiene.0
