There seems to be wide variation in tooth enamel in the general population. I have colleagues who have never been to the dentist, hardly brush and have never had a dental problem; other colleagues who brushed and flossed several times a day and ended up with full dentures before they were 25.
- vczf 6y agoAre you exaggerating? Or were they really brushing more than 3 times a day? Brushing obsessively and brushing hard will strip enamel that's been softened by acids. Brushing right after a meal can lead to damage because the enamel hasn't remineralized.
