A better way to brush your teeth. Putting a plastic stick with nylon bristles with a glob of pastey stuff in your mouth and cleaning your teeth? It don't sound right. Where has that toothbrush been??
The toothbrush was invented back in the 1700's in England, and there are references to a toothbrush way back as far as 3000BC. After all this time, there has been no improvement on the design. Can't they make a pleasant tasting, cleaning agent you can swish around in your mouth and it would do the same thing as a toothbrush? They make that for dentures! I'm not talkin about a mouthwash, but a substitute for toothpaste.
That's my idea. You got one? :idea:

Hi masterhacker: I passed through a spot in India once where they brush their teeth with little twigs grown specially for the purpose. I was delighted to find that Paul Theroux obviously saw the same thing and mentions it in his book, The Great Railway Bazaar.

If you were to write something like "calling ZZDoc" on your thread title you'd get a definitive answer from The Top.

The ZZDoc Top. ZZTopDoc. Something... :D

Cheers - C

In parts of the world Crocodiles open their mouths and a little bird will sit in their mouth and pick their teeth clean. Of course there is always the possibility of bird droppings being left behind.

Good call ha ha ha,

i'd also like to see that Sophisticated heat beam electric shaver thing that's in the movie Pandorum. That was absolutely brilliant and doesn't look to far fetched of a reality.

"Somebody needs to invent"

With mouthwatering anticipation I was expecting something guitar related
with sorts of wild brainstorming going on..

What did I find???

in the mouth with.

Me too! My shaver has been failing miserably and I been walking around looking like Grizzely Adams... or as I like to prefer Chuck Norris...

The Buick can double duty as shaver too.

Buick didn't know what they had!

It's doubtful that any kind of rinse could take the place of brushing.In order to remove the possibility of plaque forming between the teeth and gumline the best method is still brushing.In order for a rinse to remove plaque or residue from your teeth it would have to be highly corrosive and would most likelt also remove the flesh from your mouth also.Brushing and flossing is still the best route to go,sometimes the simplest solution is the best.Maybe ZZdoc could shed some light on the tooth care topic,after all he's a dentist.
