When you hear that some people don't brush their teeth, you shiver *:

In the UK, the number of non-brushers is eight times higher than last year, according to the British Dental Health Foundation poll of over 1,000 people.

And only a third were brushing for the full two minutes - as recommended.

The survey by the charity found 12% only brushed a few times a week or never, compared to 1.5% last year.

And 30% said when the did brush it was not for two minutes - down from just under half last year.

A fifth said they could not remember when they last changed their toothbrush.

The survey also showed that people were using bizarre objects for flossing, including drill bits, shoelaces and twigs.
