People that work in an office environment....
Do you bring a toothbrush to work and brush after lunch?
I saw two woman doing this today and thought it was a great idea. My work environment is not ideal for this though.

Re: People that work in an office environment....
no I don't.
speaking of oral hygiene at work though... I was in the stall earlier today tending to mother nature lol. I hear the water from the sink (they have the kinds that turn on and off automatically) go on and off... on and off, on and off, on and off and I'm like   
when I came out, there was this woman hunched over the sink - her head literally IN the sink and she was flossing her teeth call me crazy, but I usually have to look into the mirror when I do that.

Re: People that work in an office environment....
I did when I had braces (as an adult) but now I don't. Our bathroom is not so clean, I try to get in and out as quickly as possible.

Re: People that work in an office environment....
I used to. Our sinks were very clean and separate from the stalls. They were in a whole different room, so it was a little different. I still brought in water from the water cooler though. I don't trust people not to touch their scheevie hands to the faucet.

I brush if I have to go to a meeting. But I bring in water from my water pitcher.

Re: People that work in an office environment....
I used to work in an industrial shop. It was a bit too dirty to whip out a brush but I did floss at work.

No. I have some floss in my desk just in case but I would do it in my office (& use a mirror).

Re: People that work in an office environment....
No and only because the bathroom at work grosses me out. I am in and out fast.

Re: People that work in an office environment....
Yes absolutely...I have breakfast and lunch at work...and brush after both....
When I worked at JPMC, I would sometimes be there from 7am - 11pm - breakfast, lunch, and dinner...and brushed after all three...
Why is is strange? It's recm'd to brush after each meal...or at least floss.

Never said it was strange  just never thought to do that. Especially since my work area is sooo obviously not easy to do it. I think it is a great idea.

Re: People that work in an office environment....
I don't work long hours so I really don't have to - I brush in the morning, when I get home I'll usually do a quick "touch up" brush and then another regular brushing before bed.
I do keep floss in my purse at all times b/c I tend to always get the dreaded piece of food that is IMPOSSIBLE to get out unless using floss.
I have never seen what you are talking about though, personally, in any office I've ever worked in - I've never seen someone brush after they eat their lunch but I guess it is more common than one would think.

Sorry - didn't mean that you said it was strange...I thought I read it somewhere else on the post.
I do have to say this - for those that don't or can't brush b/c of the bathroom issues...I highly recm'd these (they totally make a difference):

I don't, but I chew half a piece of gum after lunch to freshen my breath.

Re: People that work in an office environment....
Not every day but I do have a brush in a plastic container and trial size toothpaste in my drawer. In case of particularly offensive lunches that include things like garlic knots.
I also have peppermint altoids that everyone I know hates except for me.
And I used to have floss in my pocketbook but when my husband runs out, he steals it from me and doesn't tell me.
