So guys I want to see the oppion you have on brushing your tooth before eating or after eating which is more hygienic and why ?


I have watched so many foreign movies where you see people eat before brushing their tooth and the feel so relaxed over this, the other day I just felt I should try this and see how it feels and it was more comfortable for me in a way but my sister wasn't happy with this, she rather called me a dirty boy ..... I then asked her what's bad about what I did and why? But she couldn't really give me a good reason why it is.
We all know at times brushing your mouth can make you get hungry faster without even doing any activity yet

So guys I need your opinions between brushing before eating and after eating and please give reasons for your opinion

Before food, if I don't brush before food that will be till next day. If I brush after food, it would be like the brush and toothpaste washed all my foods

With the abnormal condition of the country mehn it ain't done here.

Why

The weather is too harsh.

Atimes Sha but let's say sometimes u take food that has garlic as an ingredient what would you do

Most people brush before breakfast in the morning & after dinner at night.
But brushing after early breakfast & after dinner minimises food particles in the mouth.

For optimal dental health brush twice daily.

E dey hard sha

I get to enjoy the fresh breath of my mouth for a longer period of the day after breakfast...at least until lunch time. That feeling of having food stuck on my teeth or that roughness when I have to 'swipe' my teeth with my tongue can be quite discomforting.

Nothing

It is very advisable health wise to brush before eating your breakfast or first meal of the day.
I brush twice daily. First thing in the morning and last thing at night.

It is medically advisable to brush before breakfast. This is in order to do away with the bacteria that can react with the sugar component of foods to form acid, which could cause dental plaque. Dental plaque can further act on the tooth enamel to cause dental caries (holes on the tooth).
