    Brushing teeth in public bathrooms is common in Brazil, especially those of an office.

      It’s funny. In America you never see it. I brush in the bathroom at work after lunch and everyone looks at me like I’m a mental patient. Like where else am I supposed to brush after lunch? Do people just not brush their teeth after every meal?

        In the USA the norm is morning and evening. Twice a day. Only at home.

        Across my life in corporate America, I’ve seen a few people doing it after lunch, but it’s very rare.

      That explains why a former coworker of mine, who is from Brazil, brushes his teeth at the bathrooms after lunch at work. I thought he must have had some special reason, but I never asked because I figured it would be too much of a personal question when we weren’t that close.

      To be fair, yall don’t have fluoride in the water so you need to brush more often. (This is aimed at the Americans commenting)
