    2 minutes is a good time, any more may facilitate teeth "erosion" or gum recession...

    My shiny new electric toothbrush TELLS me when my 2 minutes is up -tongue2 Never overbrush again!

    Yup, dentists usually tell us to brush for about 2 minutes...
    Though sometimes I am impatient.

    I usually brush my teeth for a very long time. I often space out while brushing. <_<

    Ya, the standard time is 2 minutes are so according to my electric toothbrush. But depends on how bad your teeth is. For really bad teeth, some dentist suggest you to brush for 5 minutes.

    Advice:if you don't know how to brush your teeth (reaching corners), ELECTRIC TOOTHBRUSH dentist recommended.
     
  19. damn... you guys and your electronic toothbrushes....

    i got a normal toothbrush, but the one with the rubber thingy that cleans your tongue too :p

    Around 2 minutes also. Plus a nice rinse with Listerine after the brushing to feel extra extra clean.
