Shannon Sharpe has revealed his tooth-brushing obsession, saying he puts Colgate or Crest on his $130,000 worth of veneers and implants up to 10 times per day. 

Sharpe discussed his brushing obsession on a recent episode of his podcast ‘Club Shay Shay’ with 19-time Grammy Award-winning gospel singer Kirk Franklin. 

‘I just don’t see how that’s fair to your teeth,’ Franklin said to Sharpe. ‘To me that’s teeth brutality. They don’t need that much attention… I think you need therapy.’ 

Sharpe detailed exactly when he chooses to brush his teeth. The first three times are right after he wakes up, then post-breakfast and one more time before he begins his morning television appearances. 

The teeth-brushing obsession didn’t start because Sharpe believes he had bad breath.

Sharpe added that he replaces his toothbrush every two weeks, because ‘you only get so many brushes out of a toothbrush.’

The former NFL star then floated the idea of only brushing his teeth half as much, meaning five times per day. 

Franklin responded by saying he and most dentists would recommend only brushing your teeth twice per day, which Sharpe immediately rejected. 

‘Maybe it is a little obsessive, but what is normal?’ Sharpe admitted about his teeth-brushing habits. ‘Because what is normal to you might not be normal to me.’
