I ran out of Orange cream toothpaste and was not looking forward to brushing with mint toothpaste again. So I justified something on more orange cream using their Black Friday deal because I like the flavor so much that it helps me stay consistent with 2nd bushings. And to get free shipping, I had to buy 6 tubes! But now I will be stocked with orange cream toothpaste for a long ti.me.

I do not do much Black Friday shopping, but this was important to me.

Glad you were able to stock up on orange cream toothpaste - it sounds so good. And anything that helps motivate to brush is a good things.

Flossed but didn't brush yesterday

Just used Waterpik after a snack. Using it gives such a pleasant feeling to the mouth. But I cannot make it a habit. Not yet, at least.

Recently I bought some floss picks. They are more helpful than dental floss, for me. I've managed to use one almost every day for the past week or so.

Way to go WastingAsparagus. That's excellent.

Weird day yesterday. I didn't brush, and am pretty sure I flossed, but don't actually remember doing it, so putting it down as a ?

Just brushed because my mouth felt kind of icky. Now my teeth feel very clean. But there was quite a bit of bleeding - clearly a sign that I need to get more serious about brushing.

Do you use floss or tape? I have recently compared them, ordering both from the same company. I strongly prefer tape.
