How many times a day should a person brush their teeth?!


Question: How many times a day should a person brush their teeth?
My dad says it's unhealthy for me to brush my teeth as much as i do, i brush after every time i eat. i guess that's a lot, idk, is it?

Answers:

Four times a day is considered healthy. More is a bonus, but less can be unhealthy and occasionally downright dangerous.

Also, flossing four to six times a day is considered the average in order to stay sexually and mentally healthy.



3 times a day is ideal.
2 times a day is acceptable.

more than 4 times a day is excessive and if you're brushing too hard, it may lead to enamel loss.



I brush after everything I eat to , most dentists recomednd 2 times a day and floss 1 time , but more is perfectly fine
