Could brushing your teeth every 6 hours be beneficial?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Brushing 4 times per day may not be necessary to maintain oral health but it won't hurt ***** as long as you use a soft brush! also, get a new one when the bristles look worn as they get very abrasive over time.
