Is it best to brush your teeth with cold, lukewarm, or hot water?!


Question:

Is it best to brush your teeth with cold, lukewarm, or hot water?

+What do you all think, or what do dentists recommend? Is it better for the teeth and gums to brush your teeth using cold, lukewarm, or hot water? ANY dentists here?


Answers:

You can really brush your teeth with any of the above, I don't know that any has specific benefit. However, if you run your toothbrush under warm/hot water before you brush it will help soften the bristles a bit which is generally kinder to your gums. Happy brushing!
