Twice a day. Maybe a third if I ate a lot of junk and am going out.

that depends, but alwyas at least 2 times

Used to be 10 times a day thanks to OCD but I was able to tone that down a bit lol still a lot though.

Like Dave, that depends (if I'm at school, if I'm not...), but at least twice a day. I just can't go a day without brushing my teeth.

2 a day, although strictly speaking it's not so much brushing as flossing.

Dentists are now saying that brushing your teeth too often, particularly right after meals, actually does more harm than good. When you eat, the acids and sugars in food soften the enamel on your teeth, and a harsh scrubbing will wear down the enamel faster. It's better to brush once per day with a soft bristle brush and concentrate mainly around your gums, and then floss afterwards followed by a rinse with mouthwash.

I brush them either every night, or once every two nights.
Depends if i can´t be arsed one night.

Eveytime I eat
For 8 minutes

Twice a day. Any more just seems excessive to me. :/

Usually 1 time (at night), but sometimes in the morning (or just take chewing gum) and if I need or want I brush me teeth
