The real issue is not how long you brush but how stiff the toothbrush bristles are and how abrasive the toothpaste is. Stiff bristles and harsh abrasive tooth paste can indeed do damage to both teeth and gums. Call your hygienist and ask for a recommendation for both the brush and the paste. Good luck and I wish you well.

using a soft tooth brush i hope? i dont know if your actually doing harm, most people dont actually brush long enough. but if your using a med or hard tooth brush, with a abrasive tooth paste.. you could be wearing away your enamel. But if your using a soft tooth brush and a gentle toothpaste. and your not brushing too roughly i don't see any harm in it.. Altho.. you might want to look into OCD lol
