video and its advice to potential emulators is simple: please don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>\u201cIt is not suggested to do it that way,\u201d said Ohio dentist Andrew Zucker, a consumer advisor for the association.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>Zucker watched the video and thought Harper \u2014 more known for his brush with greatness as a two-time NL MVP \u2014 was kidding.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>But no, Harper explained to the website, it\u2019s just the way he\u2019s always brushed his teeth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think there\u2019s anything to be gained,\u201d Zucker said on Thursday. \u201cThe only thing to be lost is just wasting a whole bunch of toothpaste.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>Zucker added: \u201cJust put a little pea-sized bit of it on a toothbrush and that\u2019s all you need.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>The Padres had some fun with Harper\u2019s toothbrushing tip when he came to hit on Tuesday night. His fun biographical fact was listed as: \u201cSQUIRTS TOOTHPASTE INTO HIS MOUTH INSTEAD OF ONTO A TOOTHBRUSH WHEN BRUSHING HIS TEETH.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>\u201cI mean, it\u2019s gone viral, so I\u2019m happy about that,\u201d Harper told Phillies Nation. \u201cIt always helps with my videos when it goes viral, so if that\u2019s what makes it go viral, then I\u2019ll take it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>It\u2019s also quite uncommon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>Zucker\u2019s father is a dentist, his mother is a hygienist and he\u2019s 45 years old and the only time he saw the squeeze technique was \u201cmy 3-year-old and it was because he was trying to eat it. But no, I\u2019ve never seen an adult brush their teeth this way.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>Harper\u2019s method has worked for him, and he\u2019s flashed his pearly whites over 376 career home runs and eight All-Star appearances.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>\u201cIf I help half a person a day, changing an ingredient or letting them know there are better quality products out there that they can use or that\u2019ll make them feel better, then I won that day,\u201d Harper said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>So what\u2019s the harm in the tube-to-tongue technique?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>\u201cMy only concern would be, you have a lot of germs in your mouth,\u201d said dentist Maria Ryan, chief clinical officer at Colgate-Palmolive. \u201cWhen you\u2019re putting your mouth on the toothpaste tube, you get those germs on there. Sometimes people share toothpaste and things like that, so I worry about that a little bit.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>But here\u2019s the positive takeaway, now that Harper can\u2019t put the toothpaste TikTok back in the tube.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>Bryce Harper, star slugger, the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/bryce-harper-philadelphia-phillies-766574b5c059b6e1f9fd614ba1b440b8\" role=\"link\" class=\" js-entry-link cet-external-link\" data-vars-item-name=\"Phillie Phanatic\u2019s best friend\" data-vars-item-type=\"text\" data-vars-unit-name=\"6a189946e4b062ca52da2aec\" data-vars-unit-type=\"buzz_body\" data-vars-target-content-id=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/bryce-harper-philadelphia-phillies-766574b5c059b6e1f9fd614ba1b440b8\" data-vars-target-content-type=\"url\" data-vars-type=\"web_external_link\" data-vars-subunit-name=\"article_body\" data-vars-subunit-type=\"component\" data-vars-position-in-subunit=\"5\">Phillie Phanatic\u2019s best friend<\/a>, and baseball hero to children of all ages, brushes his teeth. Perhaps there\u2019s a fussy Phillies fan in footy pajamas who balks at the twice-daily ritual but might be more inclined to brush because Harper does it, as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>\u201cI was glad he was brushing his teeth,\u201d Ryan said. \u201cI see he\u2019s gotten a lot of views. It\u2019s good he\u2019s telling people you need to brush your teeth, which is very important for preventing cavities and gum disease.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"primary-cli cli cli-text \">\n<p>\u201cBut it\u2019s a unique way of doing it, for sure.
