OK, so I just got my first cavity today I was told by my dentist that I wasn't brushing in the right angle and I was pressing too hard whenever I brushed, which kind of damaged my enamel. Is it normal for your patients or is it just me that I wasn't educated properly on how to take care of my teeth?

is it just me or is oral health such a guilt trap? like if you skip it you feel terrible but if you actually do the full routine like brush, floss, mouthwash, wait 30 mins before eating it honestly feels like a part time job. i know it's important and it's bad for you if u don't do it and i do it but some nights i'm standing there at the sink like… why does this take so long. is it just me? or do u guys jst honestly don't gaf and just do it 😭
