I sometimes catch people at work brushing their teeth only to leave their gunk in the sink. It’s nasty. However, I commend them and envy them for committing to their dental hygiene.
How about you guys? Dig it? Not so much?

Do it every day. It is expected behavior in Japan. Before moving here I thought it was weird, though. Seems a reasonable idea both from an oral hygiene perspective and not wanting to have bad breath around co-workers and customers. Win, win.
Yeah, but people here don’t floss. The main concern from most Japanese I’ve seen is having “white teeth” is more important than healthy gums/teeth. The amount of bad breath I’ve encountered is astonishing and it seems to be due to lack of flossing.
