Dating tip! If you don't floss your teeth people who do are not going to want to kiss you.
meh. although I do brush just about every morning,.and after every meal. I have to be honest and say I don't floss as much.
How would you know? I drink enough vodka that I'm pretty sure my gum are sterile and my live is pickled.
Thats fucking a great response.
Before bed, I floss and brush my teeth, and when food gets caught between my teeth. I carry dental floss in my purse and day pack.
Through online dating, I met a man who never flossed. His breath stank of rotten meat.
"Can I ask you a personal question?" I asked. "How often do you floss your teeth?" Never, he said.
Although I handed him breath mints, it didn't help. Sitting side-by-side in a theater, I leaned away from his revolting mouth.
Ugh. Can't imagine kissing that.

yes brushing isn't enough. You could brush all day long, but if you've got something stuck it's going to rot in there. shudders
@pepperjones I wish I could say that.
Floss, or not , bad teeth or breath, will likely keep me from getting close.
@pepperjones I wish I could say that!
Personal hygiene is a good thing, flossing and brushed teeth are a plus few times a day, plus a shower lols
Oh FFS, I can't believe there are guys here that are questioning this. I brush and floss after every meal if I can. I have floss in the car and the desk at work and in the wallet if I'm on a date. Don't be the guy with the broccoli between his front teeth to go along with the bad breath. What is so hard to understand?
It goes without saying!
Good body hygiene including dental, is a must for me and is certainly a deal breaker.
@pepperjones Yes. It doesn't have to be the covered in artificial fragrances either. There is nothing sexier than the smell of a nice clean body.
"Flossing is perhaps even more important than brushing because it removes bacteria that are the precursors of plaque, which if left to fester will turn into tartar that cannot be removed by regular brushing or flossing. Tartar is what eventually causes the damage that leads to decay and tooth decay."
American Dental Society
I guess itβs good I floss.
@pepperjones
I think so too.
How about if you show up smoking a really GOOD cigar?
Dealbreaker, dude. "GOOD" is in the eye - or the mouth - of the beholder!
only if you share the cigar...I love the smell of a good cigar...each to their own...
@thinktwice
If I was looking for a partner, you'd be at the top of the list!!
I prefer to kiss someone who didn't floss above someone that smokes. Kissing an ashtray, yagh! Even if it is a gorgeous ashtray. Beauty is not everything.
To be honest, there were times that I didn't care. Times that I smoked myself. Being an ashtray kissing an ashtray was not so bad at that time. Especially when it was a gorgeous ashtray.
Smoking of any kind, including weed. Not scrubbing your tongue. Itβs the little things that push me off
If you have plaque built up, go get a dental cleaning, itβs not expensive and only take about 90 minutes if itβs really bad.
@pepperjones for some you could say asking is the same as pulling teeth.
@pepperjones βGum here and give me a smoochβ ?
