Twice, and I floss every night.

Wasnt always that good about it and had to undergo some really uncomfortable gingivitis treatment. Been doing it religiously since.

I can relate.

When I went to the orthodontist in my teens, she said I had an underbite but she was afraid if she fixed it my jaw would grow out and Id end up with an underbite, and we just never ended up going back.

Then in 2016 I went in to a dentist because a filling fell out of the back of one of my upper front tee5, and he told me that I ground my teeth in my sleep, and because of my overbite, my lower front teeth had completely destroyed all the enamel on my upper front teeth, so I needed 6 crowns.

Ive brushed religiously since before then, but that cemented it. I dont floss because my teeth are still sort of crooked and it ends up making my gums bleed, it gets stuck in my teeth, etc. I used to use a Waterpik to floss, but the sink we have now is too small for it to fit on there with everything already on it.
