OK, I used to brush my teeth badly. Now I do it very well. And I am losing weight. But my friends keep on teasing me about it. Can anyone tell me how to make them stop. It's really annoying.

Just tell them, seriously, that it bothers you.
There's nothing wrong with losing weight (even if it is by brushing your teeth... which I don't fully understand). Especially if they're heavyset, in which case they're probably jealous. People shouldn't ever make fun of another person for trying to better themselves.

Ok, we were all about the same size. Then I started to lose weight. Not super noticeable, (like ) to l) but a reasonable amount. There always like "You need to lose some weight." And ONE of them is like "Eww! Your teeth are yellow!" And I reply, "Last time you said that they were perfect. Knock it off. Then they confide. (I have really good hearing) It sounds like "Ya he really does." (Which isn't true.) So he asked me how I brush, what toothpaste I use. So I say I don't use toothpaste you don't need it ect. Then he said "If you don't use it they must be horrible." And I told him, My dentist said you don't need it. Then he denies ever saying that then says. Well....if you don't use toothpaste your teeth will be scratched. Lol obnoctious. Tomorrow I'm gonna confront them about everything they say that's untrue. I think I might go to the principle.

That's when you just punch them in the mouth.

I agree with Daniel up there. If these guys really jack with you that much, they might not really be the best friends, hmm? Confront them verbally. Tell them to stop. If they don't, then well I don't condone violence usually, but you might want to pop 'em in the mouth :\

i have a better question. Why are you finding it offensive that people are making fun of brushing your teeth? just seems like such a petty argument to even give even the slightest dimmer of a damn about. IMO of course...

Toothpaste has the ability to whiten your teeth using flouride. But that aside, tell them to quit it or you'll beat them up. And if they are still talking smack punch them in the face. Make them look like this >  <

I mean technically, no, you don't really NEED toothpaste. It helps of course, with the flouride and whatnot, and it leaves your mouth feeling minty fresh  I actually know a few people who rarely use it, and their teeth look fine. It's just a preference, I guess. So you have a couple options. 1) Just ignore them/make fun of them back/take it as a joke. My friends and I mess around with each other like that all the time. If they are really just messing with you, don't let it get to you. 2) If you can't handle option one, and it really DOES bother you, tell them. And, again, if they don't stop, ditch them. Or punch them. Friends know when to stop.
