Hey guys, for the past 1.5 years I have been brushing my teeth with a soft brush, no toothpaste, and rinse my mouth with water after each meal.

3 dentists checked my teeth, and they said everything looks good.

I also researched, and all articles basically said it is not what is on the brush, but the brush itself.

Also, I wasn't a fan of the average toothpaste, tastes like sweet burning poison, and I heard the fluoride use is synthetic and nothing like the fluoride find in organic rivers and streams.

What's your take?

To be honest, I agree with the articles. Having a better toothbrush is beneficial to helping brush out the bacteria in hard to reach places. As long as you brush your teeth 3 times a day and rinse out, you'll be good to go.

It's great to hear that you are having good results with this!

Could you provide links to the articles?

I store my toothbrush inside a bottle of alcohol, so it's basically germ-free. When I take it out, all I have to do is rinse it with clear water to remove the alcohol. Sometimes, I sprinkle the bristles with some baking soda and a little salt.

I need to add that dental problems are largely based on genetics.
My dentist has advised me to keep away from baking soda as well as peppermint oils- the very things my organic toothpaste, as well as my homemade stuff were made of. My teeth are very soft, bones are fine, teeth soft

So it just means that I suck at brushing my teeth and I need to get better at it.

Of course you need to visit a doctor!
I had the same problem once, when I've tried to change my toothpaste. I ended up with stomatitis.

I use Tom's, and a soft baby toothbrush since I have sensory issues. But hey, do what works for you. ^_^

I use organic charcoal toothpaste by Virginic and it has a great affect, do not need to go to dentist for whitening them, only for care purposes
I think the toothpaste is more for smell purposes then actually cleaning.. so I don't want have a bad smell, especially in the morning

I use a commercial toothpaste (I grew up with Colgate, but I've used different brands). Sometimes I just brush with a wet toothbrush- no paste. My dentist advised me to use a brush with soft bristles and not be too rough brushing my teeth: be gentle and brush away from the gumline toward the biting surface of the teeth.
