    I've always done it before, not because I thought it was better, but because it feels gross eating right after I wake up with my mouth dirty

    After a night's sleep I cannot start my day without brushing my teeth. Teeth are too cruddy, even if you've brushed before bed (which I do). After I eat, I'm swallowing more, drinking fluids, etc.If I feel my teeth need a cleaning after, I rinse with water and/floss if needed.

    I normally brush before, but occasionally have to brush after and it always feels wrong, almost like I can feel my teeth screaming for help lol. But sometimes my mornings don’t go as planned and I have no choice. Thanks for the info❤

    Always brush after the meal & drink a glass of water when you first wake up. While sleeping, you produce vitamin b12 in your mouth and the first glass of water you drink gives you that dose of vitamin b12. You brush after the meal to remove any food particles so they don’t sit on your teeth and begin to cause decay.

    How often can I brush my teeth? I used to brush them a lot, but people always told me it is probably not good. I recently stopped brushing more than twice a day because I was worried about my enamel. Is there a video on how often to brush??

    I brush when I wake up. After breakfast I will swish with CloSYS. Also, I'll chew PUR gum (xylitol) periodically throughout the day. Usually after lunch.

    If you brush before breakfast, you are technically leaving some amount of food (including bread) on your teeth surface for a long time! Isn't it a bad situation???

    Electronical brushing right following consuming a glass of lime water works well for me in the mornings, then likely a simple flossing following power-breakfast with Pancakes, Eggs, Rye Toast, Fruits and Vegetables

    My real question is if it's okay to drink water before brushing in the morning, just water. I often wake up dehydrated so sometimes I'll take a sip of water before brushing my teeth

  • @serendipitysisters84
    @serendipitysisters84 5 місяців тому

    About the acidity, I know of this, but I like a clean teecth feeling and sometimes waiting isn’t always an option. I’m confused why you can’t drink a large glass of milk and then brush? Does the milk and rinse with water before brushing not bring down the pH? I feel like it does, but I could be living a lie 😭

    I do the best I can but sometimes I can't wait 30 minutes to brush my teeth after breakfast because I really gotta head out the door but I don't really eat acidic foods with breakfast , hopefully that helps my teeth
    Speaking of acidic foods is kimchi bad for teeth? It's supposed to be really healthy for gut health but is it harmful to teeth enamel ?

    2:56 and 3:46, No it's not okay. I highly recommend brushing teeth every morning or shower and brush when I wake up, before eating breakfast, so that the mouth is fresh. After breakfast, rinse your mouth with water, rinse your mouth, so that the food is not stuck in the teeth or shower and brush teeth, so that the mouth is fresh and drink water, so that the teeth is healthy. Still, don't brush teeth after breakfast, no good for the teeth and bacteria. Just brush teeth or shower and brush teeth, before breakfast, so that the mouth is fresh. After breakfast, rinse your mouth with water, so that the food is not stuck in the teeth.
