Omg, no wonder my teeth are getting worse after moving to Amsterdam. I drink a ton of water and use Maldon salt. I didn’t realize there wasn’t fluoride in the water. (All the Nutella isn’t helping either, but… ooh, maybe that’s a reasonable vector for Europeans)
- dtech 3y agoEveryone in the Netherlands is using fluorided toothpaste and brushes twice a day, cavities are really low.
- theodric 3y agoGood thing I left NL or I would have invalidated your statement! Actually, I don't know anyone who brushes twice daily.
- distances 3y agoWhy don't you, isn't that a recommendation where you come from? I also don't know anyone who doesn't brush twice daily (I'm from Nordics).
- theodric 3y agoAuthorities making recommendations about minutiae does not really dictate much of the way I live my life. If they want to make it a law, fine, I'll brush my teeth in between the cups of coffee I serially drink from the moment I rise until roughly dinnertime when I then switch to alcohol (something strongly discommended by other authorities). My teeth are fine, 40 years and counting. Perhaps it's all a conspiracy by Big Toothpaste to sell more toothpaste.

- Wh1zz 3y agoI don't know anyone that doesn't brush twice daily. Am quite a sociable person and have lived in multiple European countries
