I speak from experience when I say that what you're doing is very stupid.
If your teeth are in good condition when you stop cleaning them regularly, you can get away with this for a while - years, maybe. But you will eventually get decay which may progress to dental abscesses if the decay isn't dealt with. Toothache is extremely unpleasant, but abscesses are agonising. If the infection is in the upper jaw, they can be life-threatening since there is a very real risk of bone erosion allowing the infection to go right through into the brain cavity.
PS. A £80 electric toothbrush can easily save £800 in dental expenses over its lifetime. If you are a mouth breather while you sleep, dry mouth oral rinse yields incredible savings. In the U.S., no dentist will ever tell you this because it reduces his future profits.
Dentist said the abscesses on my right side, last 3 teeth I need extracted, are infected. Getting them extracted is the very next goal I'm gonna accomplish
