>>>>But does that include trimming your beard and flossing and brushing? My standard morning routine takes about a half hour or so, and that includes my asthma inhaler and rinsing and giving at least 2 of the cats noogies - in spite of the fact that you can't really give a cat a noogy because they like it.

I've always thought the same as Nicholas as far as the brushing time. I could spend 2 minutes on 1 tooth and that would fulfill my dental obligations, but wouldn't help my teeth much. The 2 minutes is a pointless number. Now, if they came out and said 1.25 seconds per tooth face, then it might make sense. However, 1.25 seconds per tooth face doesn't seem like much.
