Do you brush before breakfast or after breakfast?

[blackgaletiger]

Heard arguments and disgust on both sides but what makes you choose to brush before or after a meal first thing in the morning

[Flower7]

I try to do it after “breakfast” (which is usually just coffee). That way my breath stays fresh for when I leave the house.

But sometimes it’s more convenient to do it when I first wake up because that’s when I’m in the bathroom to use the toilet. That keeps me from having to make two trips into the bathroom.

After breakfast because if i wake up brush my teeth then eat cavitys are going back on your teeth from breakfast so i wait till after breakfast and give them a good scrup with my oral b electric tooth brush its ten times better than original thooth brushes it reaches places a origonal tiith brush can't do it slow when u brush them so its gettting every teency tiny bit off thays what i do after brwakfast a good scrub them tooth whitning mouth wash and then mint Listerine mouth wash and relax

[Emiliasteward]

Nice sweetheart ❤️

[howhigh420]

Before breakfast definitely.

Sometimes, after breakfsst i do a quick brush without toothpaste. And if not that, I definitely rinse my mouth thorougly and try to wipe the teeth clean. I dont drink coffee so i dont have the issue of getting rid of that disgusting coffee breath.

Well your supposed to wait 30mins to 60mins after eating to brush said teeth. Now if you have to get to collage or work etc realistically you may not have that time to wait. So before is the best choice. Also to you may just forget after 30mins to an hour.

[melanieeeB]

If I do eat breakfast then I brush them afterwards, but sometimes I will brush them before and afterwards it depends

[Apple1996]

I don't eat breakfast so I just get up and brush my teeth

[Cute_Miss_Laura]

Depends, when I had a boyfriend, it was the first thing I did in the morning. But now I’m. Single, I brush after breakfast, otherwise not only does orange juice taste like crap, but if i brush b4 breakfast, I head out to school with my breakfast all over and in between my teeth!

[Apulu_3]

Before and after both. Before because it feels disgusting to eat without fresh mouth. Like after sleeping that weird feeling in mouth doesn't goes without brushing. It feels more fresh to brush and shower before breakfast. And I again brush after breakfast because it is gross to roam around with the smell of toast and milkshake you had in the morning.

[Entechad]

Sometimes before and sometimes after. It depends on where I am at. If I am away from work, before. If I am at home, sometimes before. Sometimes I wait until hours after I awaken to eat breakfast. I usually drink a quarter of water before consuming solids in the morning, so brushing is usually preferred before.

[wheresmrcunnunglis]

I brush before breakfast and floss and swish some water in my mouth afterward. Since I'm not too fond of the feeling of food particles stuck in between my teeth and they are left there throughout the day.

[lrina]

after a meal. if you brush right before going to bed for example and didn't eat anything afterwards, there would be nothing to brush when you wake up the next day. that is why i think it's better to wait after breakfast.

[thepsychologystudent]

I do it after but I've read that it's better for your teeth to do it before. Toothpaste creates a barrier so your breakfast can't do damage, something like that. But I don't like the toothpaste taste mixed with my breakfast.

[PhoenixAl]

Before and after. It is mandatory for me. I can't taste the food properly if I don't wash them before and I also won't feel fresh if I don't wash them after

[Anonymous]

Usually after breakfast. When I hear my wife brushing her teeth with her electric toothbrush before she cooks breakfast, that always means she wants to get intimate early in the morning. I immediately jump out of bed to brush my teeth too so neither of us has bad morning breath.

[InYourHead]

Before. I brush my teeth immediately after waking up

[norsecrusader]

Bro wtf your face looks like a mrs potato head went through a face changer

[tponderingundead]

nice photoshop. what app do you use?

[MCheetah]

I brush before eating anything, but I almost never eat breakfast, anyway. I end up waking up late a lot and barely getting to work on time.

[Amy10223]

Both. I can’t stand eating with morning breath. And I don’t eat breakfast; I have an early lunch and dinner only.

[Lliam]

I brush first thing in the morning and before I go to bed. The only other time is sometimes before sex, but not always.

[Ian69]

I clean my teeth in a morning when I get up and again after my breakfast. And of course last thing at night before I turn in.

[dustybiker]

Before. I’ve had complaints from garlic bagels about my breath in the past. It’s embarrassing when overheard.

[PhenomenalQueen]

Both, you brush when you wake up and you brush again after you’ve ate.. That’s how you prevent cavities.

[WalkingInTheRain7]

Well, what's the point of brushing before you've had breakfast, better to clean them after you eat, and get a overall cleaner mouth throughout the day, rather than getting food matter on them right off the bat.

[LivAndLearn]

Before I use it to wake me up lol and then I have breakfast like 30mins later

[AviatorTom]

I brush after breakfast. That gets rid of the overnight "scum" on my teeth, bad breath, and also the food particles stuck in my teeth from breakfast.

[laurieluvsit]

Never heard of brushing before a meal instead of after?

That's a new one :)

[loveslongnails]

I don't eat breakfast, per se. I have tea and honey first thing, but after my initial meal, I usually floss or use a water pik.

[Andres77]

The bacteria grows all night.
If you eat FIRST you're just swallowing all those bad bugs.
I brush my teeth when I go to bed and when I get up.

[Bubbles16]

I brush my teeth after I eat because just like drinks I feel like food would taste weird if you already brushed your teeth

[StrawberryShake]

Before bc breakfast doesn't taste fresh if I don't 😭 sometimes after too but I'm not even going to pretend I do every single time.

[NotTacocaT6969]

After breakfast.


Otherwise bits of food from breakfast would sit in my mouth all day and begin to decompose causing rancid breath.

[exitseven]

I brush my teeth before breakfast while I am showering. It is more convenient

[OctopusEars]

But then your breakfast is in your mouth all day bro

[exitseven]

@OctopusEars yes, that is a downside but I usually have a protein shake in the morning anyway.

[OctopusEars]

Yo that’s almost worse, protein shakes feel like they leave a film in my mouth all day if I don’t do a full brush + mouthwash. I guess if it’s working for you it doesn’t matter though

[clampfan101]

After does seem to make more sense, but I’ve never really thought about it before.
There’s an argument for everything, though.

[Fireguy17]

before.
not a big fan of morning mouth before eating.
some morningd when we get a call there is no chance to brush.
So far I haven't died from it, but...

[Waldoe]

In the morning I remove my teeth from the cup in the bathroom and put them in... Now I am ready for the "Bright Lights" of Broadway

[chulo1992]

AFTER. If did it before... I would have to do again AFTERWARDS 😕

[Logan_V96]

After, there’s no point is brushing them before if I’m going to eat right after.

[Grace_89]

Before having the breakfast lol, Sometime when we sleeping we stuck with some phlegm and when we sleeping have a little bit odour

[EnglishEuropean]

After of course. I don't want food rotting on my teeth all day. smh

[Shiningtempest]

@blackgaletiger I brush my teeth after breakfast because I only have to do it once.

[annabananna]

After because after I eat it can leave the taste in my mouth and I don’t like that.

[boredomdude8]

Always after food in the morning and evening. Brushing before is just overkill for your teeth.

[MountAverage]

Why would you brush before breakfast? That makes no sense.

[Anonymous]

I used to brush before breakfast but now I started brushing at night so that's why when I wake my mouth feels fresh, so I brush after breakfast.

[Lucy68]

I brush my teeth before breakfast

[DeepPassionateLover]

After, better to get the food out

[Anonymous]

I wonder if women usually bush Before or After they suck dick!!!

[Darine123]

I brush my teeth after I eat every time

[Paul09]

After. So bizzare to do it before.

[Babygirl_S]

Before always and mouthwash after breakfast.

[RebeccaBI2000]

Both. I want to be able to taste the food

[Jay3344]

Usually after breakfast

[Twalli]

Before breakfast and after dinner

[bigpauly]

After. Don’t want my breakfast to taste weird lol
