And floss too. If it's the evening, that's a perfect time to do it. If it's the morning, great time as well. Middle of the day? You've probably had food, brush them teeth. If you've recently (but not immediately after, wait a bit, drink some water) eaten, that's a perfect time to brush. Especially if you've recently had something sugary (avoid sugary stuff, also like I said not too recently).
And if you can, and haven't recently, see a dentist.
Your teeth are precious, and hard to replace. Lack of proper dental care can in many ways amount to a tax on the poor, where a lack of proper preventative care can turn mouths into an unaffordably fixable mess. Get people in your community to take care of their teeth too.
There's really only a few situations where you shouldn't be brushing your teeth right now: you vomited recently (brushing after vomiting can degrade the protective coating on your teeth), or you brushed recently.
Not having the equipment for it on you is only an excuse this once, carrying that stuff with you is a good idea. You eat and drink throughout the day, so you should brush and floss throughout the day. And who knows when you'll need to be presentable? You don't want to barrage your comrades, friends, partners, or "path to promotion" (your bosses) with bad breath.

I've been using the same electric toothbrush since at least like 2014 and just buying those replacement heads
battery's weak but it hardly matters, it only needs to last a couple minutes. it absolutely feels like it does a better job than my ass, to the point where on vacation when I don't have it I brush extra hard to compensate
i'm pretty sure you can replace those battery in the rechargable ones if you wanted, it's not reccommended but doable
Oh I probably will if it ever fully dies. I've had the bottom cap off with only minor destruction. but it looked like too much work for a preemptive fix
do you use the electric brush with double aa batteries or rechargable?

it's only a matter of time until the newer models have a "find my toothbrush" feature, you were born too soon i'm afraid
thanks , i was looking at the oral b pro 100 (double aa batteries) but just brought the oral b pro 300(rechargable) - i know you said there is no difference, but do you recall from where you read that said the expensive ones are no different from the basics?
