Let's talk about Oral

For those who know the writer well, she's atrociously filthy. Sometimes, she defends her laziness with being "eco-friendly".  


The bunch of us who're used to waking up and brushing their teeth in darkness, you will, one day realise that your toothbrush ends up like like this very quickly: 

or worse... 

If one continues to brush their teeth with this damned toothbrush, your teeth will eventually have holes (like the writer) because screwed up toothbrushes with frayed bristles just can't reach places that a brand new toothbrush can


As a result, you throw the toothbrush away, adding to the already increasing pile of useless plastic trash. Plastics can be recycled and is cheaper than landfill disposal, but it also takes a significant amount of energy to do so. Might as well make your plastics last as long as they should

The lifespan of a toothbrush largely depends on methodology:

Less strength, more strokes.
Kurang kekuatan, lebih stroke!
少的力量,更招!
적은 힘이 더 스트로크!
少ない力、より多くのストローク!
Меньше силы, больше ударов!
Minna styrkur, fleiri högg!

Psychologically, one's teeth feel cleaner using strength. However, it's not necessary - your bristles part faster, reducing its durability and utility. Instead, dirt can be better removed from your teeth with increased, light repetition of strokes. 

Your toothbrush bristles can therefore last 5 times longer without compromising the cleanliness of your teeth.


Toothbrushes that are already dead and overstaying their welcome (aka useless for your mouth), don't throw them away just yet!

Use it for clearing up grime in crevices, hard-to-reach areas (eg: corners in your toilet shower)


Also use it to appease your little furry friends and remove loose fur. They love it (tested and proven) behind the ears, under the chin, around the neck. 




Toothbrushes are also good for grooming Spartan warriors.
