Do you brush before or after your meal?

Recommended Posts

How many times do you brush your teeth everyday? There are some who do it only once while some do it two or three times depending on how many times they eat. 

How do you go with your teeth after eating? Do you always brush immediately after eating during the day or leave everything till before you go to bed then you will brush?

Typically after. There's no real benefit to do it before because all the food will be stuck on and between your teeth after eating so it's best to do it after eating.

Yeah, that's very correct. My mother finds it very awkward to eat without brushing first. So, she brushes before and after eating her meal. I think it's too much pressure for the teeth and gum.

No but I am trying to build a habit of brushing twice a day. Earlier I used to brush only once in the morning but now I am trying to brush after dinner as well.

I usually do the second one before bed. That way, if I eat anything after my dinner, I don't have to brush again.

I believe that it is very important for you to brush h at least twice in a day especially before going to bed because it's going to make your mouth to feel fresh whenever you woke up in the morning.

I always brush my teeth twice a day and it's always done after I have eaten. I will wake in the morning and eat my breakfast and have a drink before I clean my teeth and I won't clean my teeth on a night until I have finished eating and drinking. 

Sometimes I will brush more than twice if I feel I need to or if something gets stuck in my teeth.

I have always focused on brushing after eating food. I don't even understand the reason to brush before eating after I will still have food particles in my mouth afterwards. However, brushing after eating makes it easier for me.
