To add to this, what kind of tooth paste are you all using that requires water to help it spread? I've never had a problem with spreading mine.
Yea, it gives it a better mouth feel. Toms of Maine's gels are a little too thin, and I'll use those without water. I'm not a fan of gels though, so I don't get them much.It just feels too thick without water. A splash of water is fine.
