Dental medicine's Suparna Mahalaha discusses brushing your teeth in the shower

Yahoo Health: Suparna Mahalaha, associate professor at the School of Dental Medicine, said brushing teeth in the shower is fine but may reduce effectiveness without a mirror, making proper 45-degree technique harder. Dentists say location matters less than consistency, though shower brushing requires extra care—use a mirror, maintain technique and brush for two minutes.
