Not sure if this is 100% scientifically backed but I read a bit by a dental hygienist on a forum that you shouldn't rinse when brushing with proper toothpaste because it can help remineralize the teeth if when its not rinsed away after

Its annoying but its a good way to cut down on mindless snacking at the very least for me so its something I do sometimes. Hope its not voodoo

For sensitive gums, my dentist told me to rub the (sensitivity) toothpaste directly on my gums before going to bed. The toothpaste builds up the tissue.

This is for all my floss-averse people out there: put floss plackers in your car. I floss way more this way than in front of my sink. Yes, not optimal dental hygiene but there's just something that just clicks in my head and makes me want to do it when driving around vs literally any other time.
