Why is it that right after you brush your teeth and drink some juice, the juice !


Question: I just want to find out why lol


Answers: I just want to find out why lol

Because the difference in taste due to the acidity/pH levels.

I know that it tastes like crap, but it is actually better to brush your teeth BEFORE your drink highly acidic juices, like OJ. The reason being that OJ lowers the pH in your mouth to under 5.5 and once it is below that level your teeth start to soften/demineralize. If you were to then brush your teeth, the bristled on your toothbrush could erode your enamel away.

because the juice contains acid (low pH) and tastes horrible when you mix it with toothpaste (high pH)

omg duh its because toothpaste usually has a minty taste that is supposed to gt rid of bad breath and bad smelling food. So if you drink juice after it your basically drinking mint flavored juice. ick.

i gess bcuz

minty toothpaste + lets say orange juice = minty orange drink

would u drink tht? i wouldnt

i think because of the minty after taste from the toothpaste

just a guess!
