It would depend on what I am doing. If I am going out somewhere after breakfast, I would always brush my teeth. I would brush my teeth before I would go to work. I would brush my teeth as one of the last things I do before I go to bed. In fact, if I do not brush my teeth before I go to bed, I usually have a poorer night's sleep. Mum guilt-tripped my siblings and I to brush our teeth before bed so much that she would make sure we were not allowed to sleep before we brushed our teeth.

Knowing what I know now about dental hygiene's importance, I would have brushed my teeth three times a day throughout my childhood.

I also have a thing about trying to use dental floss as my own kind of braces. My bottom front teeth have a noticeable gap between them. So, I tie the floss around them and pull them as close together as I can.

I have a dental appointment waiting list with the Rockhampton Hospital. But, I could double up with the CQU's dental department.

Yep.

My dentist doesn't get much work from me.

Every 6 months he has a look and says "Keep doing whatever it is you're doing - your gums are extremely healthy and there are no major problems with your teeth".

Regular flossing really is the key.

I can't leave the house or go to bed if I haven't flossed - even if it's only a very quick one.

Any recurring dreams?

I have on in which someone is pounding on the door, and the old girl is saying - "Get up - it sounds like the authorities!" Shake self awake... stagger, unlatch door... instantly rushed by 2-3 Chinese guys and thrown to floor...

"You have screw driver! You screwdriver fit box at Embassy!"

"It's a standard screwdriver and tiny."

"You enemy of state - have screwdriver open embassy boxes and boxes at port!"

"It's only an ordinary little screwdriver and I use it to open my travel bags - the catches stick.."

"You LIE! You enemy of state... foreign spy! No clothing - you unna arres'!"

Weird .....

Mouthwash does not do much for you unless you want to hold mouthwash in your mouth for a couple minutes. I use baking soda as a type of mouth wash because it is more effective in dissolving the plaque on your teeth. And even then, you should be flossing at least once a week to take advantage of what the baking soda/mouthwash has done for your teeth.

I’ve only ever brushed my teeth twice a day. I brush thoroughly and use (ie gargle) Listerine mouthwash 1st thing in the morning and last thing before going to bed at night.

Last time I went to the dentist (a month ago) she advised that my teeth were very clean and were well maintained. Oh and I’ve never had a filling in my life.
