toothpaste and different levels of foam.

when i brush my teeth, i instantly get loads of foam, so much so that i look like a rabid dog. Now, when Anastasia brushes hers. There is no foam at all, why is that?

Are you sure you're using toothpaste & not hair mousse?

Are we assuming that you are using the same type of toothpaste and brushes?

Is this every time? Have you eaten the same food/drink? Perhaps there is a "last drink", say coke or tea which makes the difference?

same brand of toothpaste, yes. But different brushes, although i have made..erm asked [:I] Anastasia use mine and watched how she brushes her teeth, she has the same brushing action as i do...courious.

Oh, and Doc. i remember the days when i could use hair mousse, and even gel and spray...ohh those were the days.

good question, Kadie. to which the answer is no, she is slower. But, the moment i begin to brush i am awash with the foam, and when Anastasia has finiseh she still has none or very little. which one of us is the odd one?

Karen W. · « **Reply #13 on:** 13/07/2007 00:49:59 »

What about the pressure that one puts on the brush!

Better yet I bet your mouth produces more saliva then hers and therefore foams up more then hers!

kdlynn · « **Reply #14 on:** 13/07/2007 03:02:55 »

oh... good idea karen

kdlynn · « **Reply #15 on:** 13/07/2007 03:03:50 »

OR do you use more toothpaste than she does?

kdlynn · « **Reply #16 on:** 13/07/2007 03:04:47 »

here's an idea... you brush her teeth... if she'll let you. that'll take care of the pressure question

Karen W. · « **Reply #17 on:** 13/07/2007 03:27:32 »

LOL Poor poor Anastasia... MAybe if you tell her it is a science experiment she will allow it! LOL!
