It’s how I learned it but it turns out… the most health benefit from tooth paste comes from not rinsing it out. The fluorides do better work that way. Also the main reason why you should brush 3 minutes. No mechanical or cleaning reason. It’s to keep the fluorides on them.
I’m usually more surprised by every tv-show and movie depicting someone brushing their teeth and then rinsing their mouth with water after!? What!?
Is that not how you brush your teeth? Because everybody I know brushes their teeth like that.

Yeah, but you will swallow everything you brushed off - even worse with morning mouth. That’s why I brush a second time and don’t rinse the second go.
Super late, but I don’t know about you but there’s fluoride in my tap water. A bit from toothpaste is negligible.
