Toothpaste Taste?!


Question: I brush my teeth every morning before breakfast (after a shower) and then eat breakfast. I hate the taste of food during breakfast because of the toothpaste- orange juice tastes acidic and hard to drink. Toast also tastes tainted with toothpaste. Any suggestions on ways to get rid of this taste faster (other than not brushing my teeth in the morning)?

I also think you should wait to brush until after you eat, but your situation may keep you from it. I will tell you this, when I was in 7th grade, my science teacher xplained this to us. He said that if you drink milk after brushing, it will change the ph levels in your mouth and neutralize the taste buds. I have tried it and it does work. Also, if you are using a mint flavored toothpaste, try the flavored kinds, like lemon or orange, I have found that they don't leave as bad a taste!

i couldn't make sense of brushing your teeth before you eat your breakfast... I just gargle with water alot of times before i eat my breakfast and then I brush my teeth.... that's just about it.

u can.t brush ur teeth after breakfast??? thats better anyways, especially after drinking orange juice and watnot........its sugar to feed those bacteria on ur teeth.....

the point of brushing your teeh is to clean them.. if you're eating after you brush your teeth arent clean anymore, so whats the point? brush after you eat.
