Stacey Solomon revealed her gross habit on Instagram
Stacey was seen brushing her teeth in an earlier video
She was seen with a tooth brush hanging out of her mouth while she said: “I just wanted to come on here while I’m rushing around for this shoots to say sorry about how rubbish I’ve been.”
The mum-of-four then took a huge gulp and added: “As soon as this crazy week is out of the way I can do some fun stuff …”
In a second video, Stacey later shared a comment from a fan that said: “Stacey you didn’t just swallow your tooth paste did you?”
“Oh my God, my inbox! don’t judge me…” she replied.
Despite fan protests Stacey may have the right idea when it comes to her brushing technique.
Because although rinsing thoroughly after brushing is common practice, it could actually be reducing the health benefits to your teeth.
This is because toothpaste contains fluoride, an important ingredient that helps make the enamel harder and more resistant to acids that cause cavities.
Holding off on rinsing means you’re leaving the fluoride from the toothpaste in your mouth for a longer time.
This gives you a better effect from the fluoride and will contribute to a healthy set of nashers.
And the expert says not to worry if you are thinking about the strong taste of toothpaste being left in your mouth due to lack of rinsing.
It comes after one dentist revealed a simple hack that will give you pearly whites.
Cosmetic dentist and Real Housewives of Cheshire star, Dr Hannah Kinsella said while the food and drink you eat can stain your teeth, the way you’re brushing them could make a difference.

She said: “Instead of brushing teeth aggressively with a hard grip – which can be a natural response – try to hold your toothbrush at the very end and use a grip as if you’re holding a pen.
“This will reduce pressure to the brush and the teeth, therefore protecting them from damage. All of these things can contribute to whiter teeth!”
