Do you walk around while you brush your teeth?
Can you help resolve a question between my spouse and me? Do you stay in the bathroom the whole time while you are brushing your teeth or do you walk around the house?

i walk around switching laundry, and whatever. kills 2 birds with one stone. be careful, though. i tripped once and jammed the toothbrush in that real soft place between your upper teeth and nose. hurts like hell!

yeah i do its been a habit since i was little

Since I got my implants (I have a prosthesis bridge screwed onto the implants) I will take a soft wet tooth brush and sit at my computer or watch TV and slide the side of the tooth brush along side of my teeth and brush back and forth against the implants. It does a better job than just flossing. After I go to the sink and brush with toothpaste and stay in the bathroom for this. I was told when I went for my cleaning that my teeth were so clean and gums so healthy she didn't have to do anything.

So yes I guess you could say I walk around but never could I walk around with tooth paste in my mouth as that is just to slobbery.


MR.
no

I stay in the bathroom. It really doesn't take longer than 45sec to brush my teeth.

I attempted to brush my teeth while naked. Some people have. Like right after getting out of the shower. I would not consider walking around though. Its messy. I stand still and some gets on me.


Claudia
why would you walk around the house while brushing your teeth unless you needed to get stuff done? you can do whatever you want. if your capable, then walk around.


JoHanna
I stay at the sink- I bend over so I dont get toothpaste everywhere. I just concentrate on getting it done the fastest.

I usually walk around...sometimes to put a glass in the sink or get my purse and other things ready for work!


Torch
i stay


Kaytee
I go to the living room and watch some tv while brushing for two minutes. I guess, it's a nasty habit...


chaoshelp18
b/c there is nothing else to do. Some people stare at themeselves in a mirror.

Nope not really...unless there is a phone call.....

depends on how late i am. i usually brush my teeth and pick out earrings, or clothes at the same time or walk around the house getting stuff picked up. my husband thinks it's goofy, but then he brushes his teeth in the shower, so go figure.


Blackrosesyellow
I know its mayb not as safe, but I cant help it! Ofcourse I walk around when i brush!! Time goes by alot faster when u walk around. And I like chacking for phone messages when i walk around!

I walk around the bathroom more than I walk around the house. Sometimes I will walk around the house if there are things to get done. But if I'm zoning out I'll stay in the bathroom. :-] Take care!

In light of what happened to my mother just a few weeks ago, I felt compelled to answer this question. Personally I stay in the bathroom the entire time I am brushing my teeth. To save time, I usually brush in the shower which also saves on sink clean up.

But back to my mother, she apparently walks around the house while brushing, or did I should say. I should preface this by saying my dear mom is not the most agile person running around and has been known to do some really clumsy things in her time. But this should serve as an example anyway...

While getting ready for work one morning she was brushing and went out into the hall to say good morning & pet the cats. She bent down, lost her balance somehow and managed to fall with the toothbrush still in her mouth and gouged a large hole out of the back of her throat. She wasn't able to talk much for a week and had to be careful of what she ate and drank. She probably should have went to the doctor, as my father tried to insist, but she didn't really want to have to explain why she was brushing her teeth and falling on cats.

So I would have to say, clumsy or not, why not just stay in the bathroom while brushing and eliminate unexpected mishaps?


Blonda
i do both. depends on my boredom level.


Blake T
sometimes

Nah I stay put. But my husband walks around the house and just stops in another bathroom to rinse his mouth.

Walk around, of course. Why would you want to stare at yourself with bed-head and no makeup for three minutes?


Spidergirl
I walk around the house if i am in a hurry, but i stay in the bathroom most of the times. by the way good question!

ya, i do move around while brushing! It depends how lazy i m tat morning. If i m to sleepy, i just stand there and brush, but sometimes, i do move around everywhere in house while keeping tat tooth brush in my mouth. I also check my mails in morning while burshing.

I usually walk around.. It keeps me brushing so my teeth are clean, rather than standing there and getting bored

Now that you mention it, sometimes I do.


~Wild*Kitty~
I walk around so that I brush longer, cause it's better for the health of your mouth and teeth the more you brush... It is simply common sense to me!
