My brushing routine:
Sonicare. Make sure to brush your tongue, a frequently overlooked step.
floss (nobody likes doing it, but nothing really replaces it.)
interproximal brush
Waterpik. After a thorough brushing and flossing you'd be shocked at the debris you see in your sink. The OralBreeze would work as well. The only difference is that you can mix Listerine in the waterpik.
Mouthwash of your choice.
I've been a pipe smoker since 1959 and my dentist tells me that there's absolutely no evidence of it, neither lesions, staining, etc.
20 minutes daily of intensive oral care really pays off. And SWMBO doesn't complain. And if you don't have 20 minutes a day to spend on your oral health, well, ... pipe smoking will be the least of your problems.
