It should be alright but you should use a very soft brush. Many people brush their teeth while driving. You don't even need tooth paste really. The idea is to remove particles from your teeth, so they don't turn to sugar and plaque. And stimulating the gums is good. A rubber, thicker brush is best for that. Don't forget to floss.

Brushing too often can actually cause your gums to recede. Sensitive teeth are a symptom of gum recession and over years this could cause you to actually lose your teeth. You shouldn't brush more than 2-3 times a day. Try rinsing with a non-alcohol based mouthwash instead when you feel the need to brush excessively. Also make sure you're getting the most out of your brushing by brushing for about 2 minutes each time and making sure you get all of the surfaces of your teeth. Don't forget to floss either, but don't do any of these excessively. Make sure to cover your toothbrush - dont introduce it to any germs. Also leaving it in wet baggies or cases can cause bacteria...

Yes, you only need to brush your teeth 3 times at most, brushing 5 or 6 times a day can wear away at the enamel on your teeth.

It's not really good for your teeth no. It wears down the enamale on your teeth, and can wear down your gums also..It's sugested that you brush 2-3 times a day, floss..and rinse..People who tend to brush that often, see more cavities then they really should.

You may wear down the enamel faster. Usually 2-3 days is what's recommended.

No, as long as you use a soft bristle toothbrush. Its good to brush after every meal and dont forget to floss once a day.

although frequent brushing prevent formation of plaques and decays,it may lead to enamel abrasion,that is,if you're not brushing properly.don't forget to floss.

Yes, very bad, especially if your brush is a bad and rough one, and your toothpaste is very corrosive.
